FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
The jacket features HELLY TECH PERFORMANCE, offering good water resistance and breathability. It is suitable for moderate rain and snow, but for prolonged exposure to heavy downpours, a dedicated waterproof shell might be more appropriate.
What type of insulation does this jacket use?
It uses synthetic blow-able insulation, which provides warmth and retains its thermal properties even when damp.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash warm (40°C) on a gentle cycle with liquid detergent. Close all zippers before washing. Tumble dry low. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, and do not iron or dry clean.
Can I wear this jacket in very cold temperatures?
Yes, the synthetic insulation provides good warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering with additional insulating garments underneath is recommended.
What does the 'Long' in the product name refer to?
The 'Long' indicates that this jacket has a longer cut than a standard jacket, providing extended coverage down the legs for additional warmth and protection.
Does the hood offer adjustable fit?
Yes, the hood is adjustable, allowing you to customize the fit for better protection against wind and rain.
What is the main benefit of the HELLY TECH PERFORMANCE material?
HELLY TECH PERFORMANCE provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier, ensuring you stay dry from both external moisture and internal perspiration.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zipper is free of debris. Apply a small amount of wax or silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth and gently work the zipper back and forth.
Reduced water repellency
Wash the jacket according to care instructions and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. If performance does not improve, consider applying a new DWR treatment.
Insulation feels flat or clumpy after washing
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls. This helps to redistribute and fluff the synthetic insulation.
Jacket feels less warm than before
Check for any tears or damage to the fabric or seams that might be allowing heat to escape. Ensure all zippers and closures are fully secured.
