FAQs

What is HELLY TECH® PROTECTION?

HELLY TECH® PROTECTION is a technology that makes garments waterproof, windproof, and breathable. It is designed to keep you dry from the inside and the outside.

Can I wear this jacket in cold weather?

This jacket is primarily designed for rain protection. While it has a relaxed fit that allows for layering, it does not have significant insulation. For very cold weather, you would need to add warm layers underneath.

How do I clean the jacket?

Machine wash in cool water (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Rinse twice and tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry. Avoid fabric softeners.

What are the pocket configurations?

The jacket features hand pockets with secure zip closures, double-entry hand pockets, and a chest pocket with a snap button, offering secure storage for your essentials.

What does 'boxy fit' mean?

A boxy fit is a looser, more relaxed cut that is wider through the body and may hang straighter than a tailored fit. It is designed for comfort and to accommodate layering.

How often should I reapply DWR treatment?

Reapply DWR treatment when water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface. This frequency depends on how often and in what conditions the jacket is used, but typically it's needed every few washes or after significant use in heavy rain.

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain and wind?

Yes, the HELLY TECH® PROTECTION and the double storm flap over the full-length zip are designed to provide reliable protection against moderate to heavy rain and wind.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure the jacket is clean. Wash using a mild detergent and rinse thoroughly. If water no longer beads on the surface, reapply a DWR treatment according to the product's instructions.

Zipper is difficult to use

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to free any obstruction. You can also use a graphite pencil or a wax-based lubricant on the zipper teeth to improve glide.

Hood is not staying in place

Adjust the hood drawcords to tighten it around your head. Ensure the flexible brim is positioned correctly to maintain visibility while shielding your face.

Cuffs or hem are letting in drafts

Fasten the adjustable cuff tabs snugly. Tighten the lower hem drawcord to create a more secure fit around your waist.

Care Instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash in cool water (30°C or 86°F) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can degrade the waterproof membrane.

  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry. Do not use high heat.
  4. Waterproofing Maintenance: For optimal performance, periodically reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment, following the product's specific instructions, especially if water no longer beads on the surface.
