FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Helly Hansen Crew Hooded Jacket 2.0 is water-resistant, meaning it can repel light rain and spray. It is not fully waterproof and is intended to be worn as an insulated midlayer, often under a waterproof outer shell in heavier precipitation.
What is the best way to wash this jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water (30-40°C) and a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Rinse thoroughly and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.
Can this jacket be worn as an outer layer?
While it offers wind and water resistance, it is primarily designed as a midlayer for insulation. For heavy rain or strong winds, it's recommended to wear a waterproof and windproof outer shell over it.
What does 'midlayer' mean in this context?
A midlayer is a garment worn between a base layer (next to the skin) and an outer shell (waterproof/windproof layer). Its primary function is insulation to keep you warm.
How do I know if I need to re-apply water-repellent treatment?
If water no longer beads up on the surface of the fabric and instead soaks in, it's time to re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment according to the product's instructions.
What materials is the jacket made from?
The product information specifies it is a polyester midlayer, designed for insulation and durability.
Is this jacket suitable for extreme cold?
As a midlayer, it provides significant warmth. For extreme cold, layering it with a warm base layer and a robust outer shell would be necessary.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels damp inside
Ensure the outer fabric's water-repellency is intact. If it's absorbing water, consider a re-waterproofing treatment. Also, check that you are not overheating; it may be too warm for the current conditions or worn as an outer layer in damp weather.
Zipper is stiff or sticking
Clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush. Apply a small amount of wax (like beeswax or a zipper lubricant) to the teeth to improve glide.
Reduced warmth after washing
Avoid fabric softeners during washing. Ensure the insulation is not matted; gently fluff it if needed after drying. Consider if the jacket is being used as an outer layer in wet conditions, which can reduce perceived warmth.
Fit is too tight or too loose
Check the sizing guide against your measurements. This jacket is designed as a midlayer, so it should allow for a base layer underneath without being restrictive, but not be excessively baggy.
