FAQs
Is this jacket truly waterproof?
Yes, it features Helly Tech Protection technology with fully sealed seams to keep you dry in wet conditions.
Can I pack the hood into the collar?
Yes, the hood is specifically designed to be packed into the collar for a cleaner look when not needed.
Does this jacket have an adjustable waist?
The jacket features adjustable cuffs and a hood drawcord, but it does not have a waist cinching system.
Is the lining removable?
No, the soft interior lining is integrated into the 2-layer construction of the jacket.
How should I clean this jacket?
Wash on a gentle cycle with technical cleaner, avoid fabric softeners, and tumble dry on low to maintain the waterproofing.
Is the fabric noisy like some raincoats?
The material is designed to be soft and comfortable, avoiding the stiff, crinkling sound associated with cheaper plastic-based rain gear.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry on low to reactivate it, or apply a fresh DWR spray treatment.
Inner lining feels damp
Ensure you are using the jacket in conditions suited to its breathability rating. If you are exerting yourself heavily, the breathability may be overwhelmed by internal moisture.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent balance of urban style and technical weatherproofing
- Breathable fabric prevents overheating during walks
- Extended length offers superior protection compared to standard jackets
- Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment beads off light rain effectively
- Soft interior lining provides a comfortable feel against the skin
Cons
- Not intended for technical, high-mountain climbing use
- Longer length may restrict range of motion compared to hip-length jackets
- Purple colorway may be less versatile for some wardrobe styles
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the effectiveness of the Helly Tech membrane, proper care is essential. Always close all zippers and snaps before washing to prevent damage to the fabric. Use a gentle cycle with a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear, and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the breathable membrane and degrade the DWR treatment. If the jacket starts to 'wet out' (where water no longer beads on the surface), tumble dry on a low heat setting to reactivate the water-repellent coating. Store the jacket in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use for extended periods.
