Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen Verglas Infinity Shell Jacket 2.0 is designed for serious mountaineers, hikers, and ski tourers who require professional-grade weather protection in unpredictable alpine environments. By utilizing advanced Lifa Infinity and Helly Tech Professional technologies, this jacket provides an exceptional barrier against rain, wind, and snow while maintaining high breathability. While it offers industry-leading durability and performance, users should note that as a 3-layer shell, it provides weather defense rather than insulation, requiring appropriate layering underneath during cold-weather activities.

FAQs

Is this jacket insulated?

No, this is a 3-layer shell jacket designed for weather protection. It is intended to be used as an outer layer over your chosen insulation.

Can I wear this while climbing?

Yes, the articulated sleeves and harness-compatible design make it ideal for climbing and mountaineering.

What is the Recco reflector used for?

A Recco reflector is a small transponder that helps organized search and rescue teams locate individuals in the event of an emergency.

Is the hood large enough for a helmet?

Yes, the hood is specifically designed to be helmet-compatible and is fully adjustable.

How should I wash this jacket?

Use a technical garment cleaner, wash on a gentle cycle, and always check the interior care label for temperature settings.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Clean the garment and re-apply a DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Moisture is building up inside the jacket

Ensure you are using the underarm vents during high-exertion activities. Also, check that you are not wearing too many layers, which can prevent the moisture-wicking properties from functioning.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior waterproof and windproof performance
  • Highly breathable for high-output mountain activities
  • Environmentally conscious construction using recycled materials
  • Fully adjustable hood, cuffs, and hem for a customized fit
  • Integrated Recco safety system

Cons

  • Shell-only construction requires additional mid-layers for warmth
  • Technical design may feel stiffer than softshell alternatives
  • Requires proper DWR maintenance to maintain water beading

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your jacket, always ensure all zippers are closed before washing. Use a technical detergent specifically formulated for waterproof breathable membranes; avoid traditional laundry soaps or fabric softeners, which can compromise the membrane's breathability. The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating should be refreshed periodically—if water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric, you can restore it using a spray-on or wash-in treatment followed by low-heat tumble drying, provided the care label permits. When packing for a trip, ensure the jacket is stored loosely rather than compressed for long durations to prevent unnecessary creases in the seam-sealing tape. The jacket is designed to fit over base layers and mid-layers, so maintain your normal size unless you prefer an oversized fit for extreme layering systems.
