Helly Hansen Crew Hooded Jacket Black - L

I think this is the third Helly Hansen raincoat I’ve had since the mid-1990s! As soon as I wear one to death (I’m pretty rough on my gear), I simply order another one from HH. I’ve always been impressed with the weatherproof capacity, breathability and fit of HH raincoats… and love the features (tuck-away hood, zipper pockets, internal pocket, velcro cuffs). This HH crew hooded jacket is as expected: Top quality, great fit, great performance. I’ve now had it for a month and wear it at least weekly… I’m confident it will work great for many years… they always do.

Disclosure: I work part time as a sailing instructor at a community sailing center and received a discount on this jacket through my employer and Helly Hansen. I’m very grateful to HH for offering this discount to our organization.This jacket is one of the most comfortable I’ve ever worn. “Mid-light weight” I’d call it - too warm for the summer, but any amount of cool in the air and this jacket is on. I was dry and comfortable for a whole, cool spring day soloing a 33’ sloop.The high collar is a huge assets that helps keep you snug while the hood fits perfectly without blocking vision, which is great.The four pockets are appropriate, plus fleece-lined to keep your hands warm.My ONLY complaint is the branding. There are six HH labels on the outside plus a seventh ... MoreDisclosure: I work part time as a sailing instructor at a community sailing center and received a discount on this jacket through my employer and Helly Hansen.

There are six HH labels on the outside plus a seventh on the hang tag inside. I would feel more comfortable with the one or two labels most manufacturers seem to have. Other than this gripe the jacket is truly amazing and I highly recommend it.

Solid well thought out product. ...and with a bit of class. Entering my body-data on the site and letting the app pick my size resulted in a perfect fit. There are too many details to mention, down to a special pocket-fabric to keep my hands warm and toasty, to the loop at the back of the jacket for easy hanging in the wet locker. I'm and old salt from Norway who has been wearing Helly Hansen long before it was internationally known. I have never been disappointed.
