Helly Hansen's Helly Tech® fabric is a cornerstone of their renowned outdoor apparel technology, designed to keep adventurers dry, comfortable and protected in the most challenging weather conditions. Developed through years of innovation and expertise, Helly Tech® represents a promise of quality and performance that has made Helly Hansen a trusted name in outdoor gear since its founding in 1877.

At the heart of Helly Tech® is a sophisticated layering system that combines a waterproof, breathable membrane with durable outer fabrics and advanced seam sealing techniques. This three-layer construction creates a barrier against rain, wind and snow, while allowing moisture vapor to escape, keeping the wearer dry and comfortable, even during intense physical activity.

The waterproof membrane used in Helly Tech® is designed to repel water molecules while still allowing air to pass through, preventing overheating and moisture build-up inside the garment. This breathability is essential for regulating body temperature and preventing sweat from accumulating, which can lead to discomfort and even hypothermia in cold conditions.

In addition to its waterproof and breathable properties, Helly Tech® fabric is also highly durable and hard-wearing, ensuring long-lasting performance in rugged outdoor environments. Whether hiking through dense forests, skiing down steep slopes or sailing across open seas, adventurers can rely on Helly Tech® to withstand the challenges they face.

Another key feature of Helly Tech® is its versatility. Helly Hansen offers a wide range of garments and accessories made with this innovative fabric, including jackets, trousers, gloves and hats, suitable for a range of outdoor activities and climates. Whether you're facing cloudbursts in the mountains, harsh winds on the coast or freezing temperatures in the Arctic, there's a Helly Tech® product designed to keep you protected and comfortable.

But Helly Tech® isn't just about function - it's also about style. Helly Hansen designers combine technical expertise with a keen eye for fashion to create outerwear that not only performs well, but looks good too. Whether you prefer sleek and modern designs or classic and timeless styles, there's a Helly Tech® garment to suit your taste.

Finally, Helly Hansen's Helly Tech® fabric represents the highest level of outdoor apparel technology, combining waterproof, breathable and durable properties to keep adventurers dry, comfortable and protected in all weather conditions. With a promise of quality, performance and style, Helly Tech® is the preferred choice for outdoor enthusiasts worldwide.
