Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Ace Rain Jacket is designed for urban commuters and outdoor enthusiasts seeking reliable weather protection in unpredictable, wet conditions. Utilizing proprietary Helly Tech Performance technology, it offers a sophisticated balance of waterproof durability and breathability for all-day comfort. While it excels in city environments and light outdoor excursions, users should note that its 2-layer construction is optimized for mild to moderate weather rather than extreme alpine mountaineering.

How heavy is the jacket?

Can I tumble dry the jacket?

Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off
The DWR coating may have worn off; use a technical re-proofing spray and apply heat according to the spray instructions to restore water repellency.
Zipper feels stiff or difficult to pull
Clean any debris from the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or soap to improve glide.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the jacket's performance, ensure all zippers are fully closed during wash cycles to prevent snags. Always machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, preferably with a technical garment cleaner designed for waterproof fabrics. Avoid using traditional fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the surface. Hang-dry the jacket in a shaded area to maintain the integrity of the polyester shell. Because the jacket is lightweight, it is highly compatible with thin insulation layers like fleece or light synthetic vests if extra warmth is needed.
