Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Loke Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and hikers who need a reliable, versatile shell that manages unpredictable mountain weather without adding unnecessary weight. Engineered with Helly Tech Performance technology, it offers superior protection against wind and rain while maintaining essential breathability; however, users should note that as a lightweight 2.5-layer shell, it is best utilized as an outer layer for active pursuits rather than as a primary source of heavy insulation in extreme sub-zero conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it features Helly Tech Performance technology and fully sealed seams to provide complete waterproof protection.
Can I wear this in the winter?
It is a shell jacket. It will protect you from the elements, but you will need to wear appropriate insulating layers underneath to stay warm in cold temperatures.
How should I wash my Loke Jacket?
Use a technical garment detergent on a gentle cycle, and ensure all zippers are closed. Avoid fabric softeners.
Does it have an adjustable hood?
Yes, the hood is adjustable to ensure a secure fit during windy conditions.
Is the jacket breathable?
Yes, it is designed for active use and features underarm ventilation for extra heat management.
What does 2.5-layer mean?
It refers to the construction of the fabric: an outer shell, a waterproof membrane, and a half-layer protective print on the inside, which keeps the jacket light and packable.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the fabric rather than beading off
The DWR treatment has likely worn off; wash the garment and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Front zipper feels sticky or difficult to zip
Clean any grit or debris out of the zipper teeth with a soft brush and consider using a silicone-based zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your Loke Jacket, proper care is essential. When fitting the jacket, ensure the hem and cuffs are adjusted to provide a secure seal without restricting blood flow. Compatibility is best achieved through a layering system; pair this shell with a merino wool base layer or a lightweight fleece mid-layer to optimize the jacket's breathability and insulation properties. For cleaning, machine wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent. Periodically re-apply a DWR spray if you notice water no longer beads on the outer shell. Always zip up all zippers and close all hook-and-loop fasteners before washing to prevent damage to the fabric.
