Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen City Raincoat is a versatile, performance-oriented outer layer designed for adult men who need reliable protection during urban commutes and daily activities in inclement weather. Built with signature HELLY TECH Protection technology, this raincoat provides a comprehensive barrier against water and wind while maintaining essential breathability to prevent overheating. While it excels in wet-weather functionality, users should note that as a regular-fit raincoat, it is best suited for layering over light-to-mid-weight apparel rather than heavy winter gear.

FAQs

Is this jacket machine washable?

Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle using technical detergent. Do not use fabric softeners or bleach.

Can I wear this in deep winter?

The City Raincoat is primarily a shell. You can wear it in winter if you layer a fleece or insulated mid-layer underneath, but it is not inherently insulated for extreme cold.

How do I attach or remove the hood?

The hood is designed for easy removal via a snap or zip system located along the collar. Check the inner lining of the collar for the attachment points.

What does 'HELLY TECH Protection' mean?

It is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that combines a waterproof, windproof outer layer with a breathable inner membrane to keep you dry and comfortable.

Does the jacket come in different lengths?

This model features a standard city-length cut designed to sit comfortably mid-hip to upper-thigh, providing coverage without restricting movement.

Where is the reflective panel located?

The reflective panel is typically integrated into the back or hem area, designed to be folded out when you need extra visibility and tucked away when you do not.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off.

The DWR coating has likely worn off. Wash the jacket with a technical cleaner and re-apply a DWR waterproofing spray, then heat-set it according to the spray manufacturer's instructions.

Condensation building up inside the jacket.

Ensure that the back ventilation is unobstructed and adjust your mid-layer to be less insulating, as even breathable jackets have limits when activity levels are very high.

Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate.

Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris, then apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to smooth the movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof and windproof protection
  • Highly breathable design with back ventilation
  • Enhanced low-light safety features
  • High-quality, reliable YKK hardware
  • Customizable fit with detachable hood and adjustable sleeves

Cons

  • Regular fit may feel snug over very bulky layers
  • Limited to urban aesthetic rather than technical mountaineering
  • Material requires specific care to maintain waterproof coating

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your raincoat, store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid folding the garment while it is still damp to prevent odor buildup.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always follow the specific care label attached to the inner garment.
  2. Wash in a front-loading washing machine on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear.
  3. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the breathable membrane.
  4. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to restore the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
  5. If water stops beading on the surface over time, consider using a spray-on DWR treatment to renew the water-repellent properties.
