Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?

The jacket features a water-repellent treatment, which is effective against light rain and mist. It is not fully waterproof and may not provide adequate protection in heavy or prolonged rainfall.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Helly Hansen sizing chart for women's apparel. The provided information suggests sizes range from XS to XL. Consider your measurements for the best fit.

What does bluesign® certification mean?

bluesign® certification indicates that the textile manufacturing process meets strict environmental, health, and safety standards, ensuring responsible resource use and minimal impact on people and the planet.

Can I wear this jacket in very cold weather?

The jacket offers warmth due to its fleece backing, making it suitable for cool to mild conditions. For very cold weather, it is best used as a mid-layer beneath a warmer insulated jacket or a waterproof shell.

What are the benefits of recycled polyester?

Using recycled polyester reduces reliance on virgin petroleum-based resources, lowers energy consumption during production, and helps divert waste from landfills.

How often should I reapply the water repellent treatment?

The frequency depends on usage and washing. It's generally recommended to reapply the treatment when you notice water is no longer beading effectively on the fabric surface, typically after several washes.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced

The PFC-free water-repellent treatment may need reapplication. Follow care instructions to wash and then apply a suitable PFC-free DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Jacket feels less breathable

Ensure the jacket is clean. Dirt and debris can clog the fabric pores. Wash according to care instructions. Check for any blockages in the main fabric if persistent.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant or beeswax can be applied to the zipper track for smoother operation.
