FAQs

Is the jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it is constructed with HELLY TECH Protection technology and fully sealed seams to block water and wind.

Can I wear this in deep winter?

While the fleece lining adds warmth, this is designed as a midlayer/shell. You should wear thermal base layers underneath for true winter temperatures.

How do I add a team logo?

There is a dedicated internal access zipper specifically designed to allow embroidery on the shell without compromising the waterproof lining.

Does this jacket have a hood?

The Crew Midlayer 2.0 (specifically this model) focuses on a clean collar design; hooded variants are available in the wider Crew collection.

What is the fit like?

It features a streamlined, athletic fit. If you prefer extra room for thick sweaters, consider sizing up.

How should I wash it?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water with technical detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softeners.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking through the outer fabric

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating likely needs reactivation or reapplication; wash the jacket and tumble dry on low heat to refresh the finish.

Feeling damp inside the jacket

Ensure you are using moisture-wicking base layers; the jacket is breathable but will struggle to manage moisture if your base layer is made of cotton or heavy materials.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to move

Clear any debris or salt buildup from the zipper teeth using a soft brush and fresh water, then apply a silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of your Helly Hansen jacket, follow these guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Wash in cold water using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the membrane.
  2. DWR Maintenance: If water stops beading on the surface, tumble dry on low heat or use a specialized DWR restorer spray to reactivate the waterproof finish.
  3. Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving it compressed in a storage bag for long periods.
  4. Embroidery: Use the designated internal zipper to access the shell without piercing the waterproof lining, ensuring the jacket remains weather-resistant after branding.
