Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Loke Jacket 2.0 is a versatile, high-performance outer shell designed for outdoor enthusiasts who require reliable protection during unpredictable mountain weather. It offers an excellent balance of waterproof and windproof protection while remaining highly breathable and lightweight. While it excels in packability and technical feature sets, users should note that as a 2.5-layer shell, it is primarily designed as a protective layer against the elements rather than an insulated winter coat.

FAQs
Is the Loke Jacket 2.0 insulated?
No, it is a 2.5-layer shell jacket designed for wind and rain protection. You should wear insulating layers underneath if you are in cold temperatures.
Can I use this for skiing?
It is suitable for light skiing on warm days as a shell, but it lacks the heavy insulation and snow-specific features like a powder skirt found in dedicated ski jackets.
How do I know which size to choose?
The jacket generally follows standard sizing. If you plan to wear thick fleeces underneath, consider sizing up to allow for extra room.
What is Helly Tech Performance?
It is a proprietary fabric technology from Helly Hansen that is highly waterproof and breathable, specifically engineered for a wide range of outdoor activities.
Does the hood fit over a helmet?
The hood is designed for a close, adjustable fit around the head, but it may not accommodate large climbing or ski helmets comfortably.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle. Always follow the specific care label instructions attached to your garment.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak into the outer fabric instead of beading off
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a technical DWR spray to restore repellency.
Feeling damp inside the jacket during mild exercise
Ensure you are using the underarm ventilation zippers to manage internal heat and ensure your base layers are synthetic or wool, not cotton.
Front zipper feels stiff or sticks
Clean the teeth of the zipper with a soft brush to remove any dirt or debris. If needed, apply a specialized zipper lubricant.

- Seam-sealed for maximum waterproof performance

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Loke Jacket 2.0 maintains its performance, use the integrated cinch cords on the hood and hem to seal out wind during storms. When storing, ensure the jacket is fully dry before packing it down to prevent degradation of the inner coating. For care, wash the jacket in cool water with a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Periodically refresh the DWR treatment with a spray-on product once water no longer beads on the surface. Avoid using standard fabric softeners as they can clog the pores of the membrane, hindering its breathability.
