FAQs

Is this jacket fully waterproof?

Yes, it features HELLY TECH® PROTECTION, which is designed to be fully waterproof, windproof, and breathable.

Does it have a hood?

The jacket features a sleek silhouette with a focus on utility pockets; please check your specific model, but it is generally designed without a heavy hood to maintain its cropped style.

Can I wear this in the winter?

It is intended for rainy summer days and mild conditions. It is not insulated and would likely require significant layering for winter temperatures.

What is the fit of the jacket?

The jacket has a relaxed, cropped fit. If you are between sizes or prefer a more fitted look, consider trying your standard size first.

How do I store the jacket correctly?

Always use the internal suspension loop to hang the jacket in a cool, dry place when not in use.

Is the fabric eco-friendly?

Yes, the main material is bluesign® approved, ensuring it meets strict sustainability and safety standards.

Troubleshooting

Water begins to soak into the outer fabric

The DWR coating may have worn off. Wash the jacket and tumble dry it on low heat to help reactivate the finish, or re-apply a DWR spray treatment.

Zipper is sticking or difficult to pull

Check the zipper teeth for dirt or fabric lint. Clean with a soft brush and consider applying a dedicated zipper lubricant.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Because this jacket features a relaxed fit, it is compatible with a wide range of layering options from thin t-shirts to light sweaters. To maintain the waterproof integrity of the HELLY TECH® membrane, follow these care instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
  • Drying: Tumble dry on low heat to reactivate the water-repellent treatment, or air dry out of direct sunlight.
  • Maintenance: Periodically check the YKK® zipper for grit or debris to ensure smooth operation, and use the internal suspension loop for proper storage to maintain the garment's shape.
