FAQs
Is this jacket fully waterproof?
Yes, it features Helly Tech Protection, which is designed to be fully waterproof, windproof, and breathable.
Can I remove the hood?
Yes, the hood is removable, allowing you to customize the jacket for different weather conditions or personal preference.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, please check the care label on the inside of the jacket, but generally, it can be washed using a mild detergent; avoid fabric softeners.
How does this fit compare to standard sizes?
This jacket follows standard sizing conventions, but because it is a midlayer, there is enough room to accommodate a base layer or light sweater underneath.
Is this suitable for winter weather?
It provides significant warmth due to the 100g Polartec fleece, making it suitable for cool to cold conditions, though it may need to be paired with more layers in sub-zero temperatures.
Does it have internal pockets?
The design focuses on external handwarmer pockets for quick access, but please check the specific product batch for internal security pockets.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the outer shell
The DWR coating may be worn off; apply a specialized DWR restorer spray and tumble dry on low heat to reactivate it.
Jacket feels damp inside
Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking base layers; cotton layers underneath will absorb sweat and trap moisture against your skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket remains waterproof, regularly inspect the surface for debris and wash according to the label. Use technical garment cleaners to avoid clogging the breathable pores of the membrane. When adjusting, ensure the hem cord is not tangled to maintain a consistent seal. For maximum compatibility, pair this with technical base layers that wick sweat away from your body, preventing the fleece lining from absorbing moisture from within. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating from the outer fabric.
