FAQs
Is this parka waterproof?
The Helly Hansen Adore Lightweight Puffy Parka features a PFC-free water-repellent treatment on its exterior, making it water-resistant. This means it will effectively shed light rain and snow. It is not designed to be fully waterproof for heavy or prolonged downpours.
What type of insulation is used in this parka?
The parka uses High Loft™ synthetic insulation. This type of insulation provides excellent warmth-to-weight ratio and performs well even if it becomes slightly damp, unlike traditional down.
Can I adjust the hood for a better fit?
Yes, the parka is equipped with an adjustable hood. This allows you to customize the fit to your preference, providing better protection from wind and cold.
Does this parka have pockets?
Yes, the parka includes both chest and hand pockets, all secured with durable YKK® zippers. The hand pockets also feature a soft brushed lining for added comfort and warmth.
How should I store the parka when not in use?
To maintain the parka's loft and shape, store it clean and dry, ideally hanging in a well-ventilated closet. Avoid compressing it for long periods.
Are there any specific environmental features?
Yes, the parka features a PFC-free water-repellent treatment on its exterior, which is a more environmentally friendly alternative to traditional DWR coatings.
Troubleshooting
Parka does not feel warm enough.
Ensure you are using appropriate layering underneath the parka, especially in extreme cold. The parka is designed to be very warm, but additional thermal base and mid-layers may be necessary. Also, check that all zippers are fully closed to prevent heat loss.
Water repellency seems to be diminishing.
The PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment can degrade over time with wear and washing. To revitalize it, wash the parka according to the care instructions. If repellency is still low, consider using a DWR-restoring product specifically designed for technical outerwear, following the product's instructions.
Reflectives are not visible in low light.
Confirm that the fold-up reflectives are fully deployed and not tucked away inside pockets or cuffs. They are designed to be visible when exposed to light sources in dark conditions, not to provide their own light.

Compatibility
