FAQs
What is HELLY TECH Protection?
HELLY TECH Protection is a durable and waterproof yet breathable technology used by Helly Hansen to keep you dry and comfortable in various weather conditions.
Is this jacket insulated?
This jacket features a lining for comfort but is not heavily insulated. It is designed to be a protective outer shell, and additional layers may be needed for warmth in colder temperatures.
How do I clean the jacket?
Machine wash in cold water (30°C) on a gentle cycle with liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
Yes, the HELLY TECH Protection fabric and fully seam-sealed construction are designed to provide excellent protection in heavy rain.
What does 'Fully Seam Sealed' mean?
It means that all the stitching seams on the jacket have been covered with tape to prevent water from leaking through.
What size should I order?
Refer to the Helly Hansen size chart for men's apparel. The 'S' in the product title indicates a Small size.
How often should I reapply DWR treatment?
The frequency depends on usage and care, but it's generally recommended when you notice water no longer beads up on the fabric surface, typically after several washes or extensive use.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer beading water
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Reapply a suitable DWR treatment following the product's instructions.
Jacket feels clammy inside despite being dry outside
Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and oils can impede breathability. Wash according to care instructions. Check that all zippers and vents are open if applicable.
Seam tape is peeling
This is rare but can occur with age or improper care. Contact Helly Hansen customer support for potential repair or replacement options.
