FAQs

What kind of activities is this jacket best suited for?

The Helly Hansen Loke Jacket is ideal for a wide range of outdoor activities including camping, hiking, climbing, mountaineering, and trekking. Its waterproof and breathable features also make it suitable for general urban use in challenging weather conditions.

How do I determine the correct size?

It is recommended to consult the Helly Hansen size guide for accurate measurements. Some users suggest going up one size if you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear multiple thick layers underneath.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket itself is designed as a shell. For very cold weather, you will need to layer it with insulating mid-layers, such as fleece or down jackets, to provide sufficient warmth.

How should I clean the jacket?

Machine wash in cool water (30-40°C) on a gentle cycle with liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry.

What does 'Helly Tech Performance' mean?

Helly Tech Performance is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable membrane. It's engineered for high-performance outdoor activities in challenging and unpredictable weather.

Is the hood adjustable?

Yes, the hood is fully adjustable, allowing you to customize the fit for optimal protection against wind and rain.

What is the DWR treatment?

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to the exterior fabric that causes water to bead up and roll off, helping to maintain the jacket's water resistance and breathability.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer repelling water effectively

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Clean the jacket thoroughly and re-apply a DWR finish according to the product's instructions.

Water seems to be leaking through seams

Ensure the seams are not damaged. If the jacket has been washed excessively or subjected to heavy abrasion, the seam taping might be compromised. Contact customer support if damage is evident.

Jacket feels clammy inside, even when not raining

This can indicate a lack of breathability, often due to the garment being dirty or clogged pores. Wash the jacket using a technical cleaner to restore breathability. Ensure ventilation zips are open during activity.

Zipper is difficult to operate

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. If the zipper is stiff, clean it with a soft brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and windproof protection.
  • Highly breathable fabric prevents overheating.
  • Versatile design suitable for multiple outdoor activities.
  • Adjustable features allow for a personalized and secure fit.
  • Durable construction with ripstop fabric and taped seams.

Cons

  • The fit may run small; consider sizing up or checking the size guide.
  • While breathable, prolonged intense activity might still lead to some moisture buildup.
  • Minimalistic design might lack some features found in highly specialized jackets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear out of the package. It is designed for compatibility with standard outdoor apparel and can be layered over base layers and mid-layers. To maintain its performance:

  • Washing: Machine wash in cool water (30°C or 40°C) on a gentle cycle. Use a small amount of liquid detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
  • Re-proofing: Periodically, especially if the DWR treatment appears less effective, re-apply a water-repellent treatment suitable for technical outerwear. Follow the product's instructions for application.
  • Cleaning Stains: For minor stains, use a damp cloth. For tougher spots, use a specialized technical wash or a small amount of mild detergent applied directly to the stain before washing.
