FAQs

What does 'Bluesign® product' mean?

A Bluesign® product certification means the jacket is manufactured using sustainable processes that reduce environmental impact, ensuring responsible use of resources and minimizing harm to people and the planet.

How should I determine the correct size?

The Dubliner has a sharp fit. It is recommended to consult the brand's size guide. Many users find ordering one size down provides a better fit, but this depends on personal preference for layering.

Can this jacket be worn in cold weather?

The jacket is primarily designed for rain and wind protection. While it has a lining for comfort, it is not insulated for extreme cold. For colder weather, it is recommended to layer a warm mid-layer underneath.

How do I reapply the DWR treatment?

After washing and drying the jacket according to care instructions, you can reapply DWR treatment using a spray or wash-in product. Follow the specific instructions on the DWR product you purchase.

What is HELLY TECH® Protection?

HELLY TECH® Protection is Helly Hansen's proprietary technology that provides a waterproof, windproof, and breathable barrier, designed to keep you comfortable and protected in various weather conditions.

Can I machine wash the jacket?

Yes, you can machine wash the jacket in warm water at 40°C. Ensure all zippers are closed before washing.

Troubleshooting

Jacket is no longer fully waterproof

Ensure the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment is intact. Reapply DWR treatment after washing and drying, following product instructions. Check that all seams are properly sealed and zippers are fully closed.

Hood adjustment is difficult

Check for any obstructions in the hood's drawstring channels or toggles. Ensure the drawstring is not tangled and move it smoothly to adjust.

Zipper is sticking

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and a little water or mild soap. Lubricate the zipper track with a graphite pencil or a specific zipper lubricant.

Lining feels damp or clammy

This can indicate poor breathability due to dirt or residue. Ensure the jacket is clean by following the recommended washing instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners, which can clog the fabric's pores.
