Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Marine Bomber Jacket is a versatile, lightweight outer layer designed for men who need a reliable, stylish solution for unpredictable weather during spring, summer, and early autumn. Its durable water-repellent (DWR) finish and wind-resistant fabric make it an excellent choice for daily commutes and weekend outings, though it is intended for mild transitions rather than heavy winter protection or extreme downpours.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is water-repellent, meaning it handles light rain and mist well, but it is not seam-sealed or waterproof for heavy downpours.
Can I wear this in the winter?
This jacket is designed for spring, summer, and early autumn and does not provide enough insulation for cold winter temperatures.
What does the XL size fit like?
The jacket follows standard sizing; the XL is designed for a comfortable, slightly relaxed fit that accommodates base layers underneath.
What is the best way to clean this jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid fabric softeners and use a technical cleaner if possible to protect the fabric finish.
Does it have an inside pocket?
The design focuses on secure exterior zip pockets for easy access to your essentials while on the go.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading up.
The DWR finish is likely wearing off. Wash the jacket to remove surface dirt and re-apply a commercial DWR spray coating.
The main zipper feels stiff or sticks.
Clear any lint or debris from the zipper track. If it remains stiff, gently rub a small amount of paraffin wax or graphite along the zipper teeth.
Creases or wrinkles appearing after storage.
Hang the jacket in a bathroom while running a hot shower; the steam will naturally help relax the wrinkles without the need for an iron.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep the Marine Bomber Jacket in optimal condition, machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the DWR coating. For the best performance, tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. If you notice water no longer beads off the fabric surface, consider applying a DWR spray treatment to restore its water-repellent properties. Store the jacket on a sturdy hanger to maintain the shape of the shoulders and collar, and ensure it is completely dry before placing it into long-term storage to prevent odors.
