Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Loke Jacket is a versatile, high-performance waterproof shell designed for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who need reliable protection against unpredictable mountain weather. Featuring Helly Tech Performance technology, it offers a perfect balance of breathability and weather resistance in a lightweight, packable frame; however, as a 2.5-layer shell, it provides minimal insulation and is best utilized as an outer layer in a multi-layered clothing system.

FAQs
Is the Helly Hansen Loke Jacket machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle. Always follow the specific care instructions on the garment label.
Does this jacket provide warmth for winter?
No, this is a waterproof shell. It is designed to block wind and rain, but you must wear an insulating layer underneath for warmth.
Can I use this for skiing?
While it is waterproof and windproof, it lacks specialized ski features like a powder skirt or lift pass pocket. It works best as an emergency shell.
How packable is the Loke Jacket?
The jacket is designed to be lightweight and compressible, allowing it to fit into most standard daypack side pockets.
Is the hood helmet-compatible?
The hood is designed for general head coverage and adjustment; it is not specifically engineered as a helmet-compatible hood.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off.
The DWR finish has likely worn off; wash the jacket and tumble dry it on low heat, or re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Feeling damp inside the jacket during heavy exertion.
Open the underarm ventilation zippers and ensure you are not wearing non-breathable cotton layers underneath.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Loke Jacket maintains its protective qualities, adjust the hood toggles and cuffs before heading out to seal out drafty air. The jacket is designed for compatibility with standard hiking backpacks; the hem remains comfortable under a hip belt.
Care Instructions:
- Close all zippers before washing.
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle in warm water.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical membrane.
- Tumble dry on low heat periodically to help reactivate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish.
