Technical Features

Warmth Rating

It delivers excellent insulation for cold chairlift rides and frigid ski days while remaining breathable enough for active skiing.

HELLY TECH® Performance provides dependable waterproof, windproof, and breathable protection for resort skiing and changing winter conditions. While Helly Hansen doesn't publish a specific water column rating, it's generally estimated to perform in the 14K–18K waterproof range, making it well suited for snow, wind, and wet winter weather.

RECCO®

RECCO® is a rescue technology designed to help professional rescue teams locate people in the backcountry or mountains. A lightweight, passive reflector integrated into gear responds to signals from a RECCO® detector used by trained rescuers, helping narrow down a person's location during avalanche searches or emergency situations.

Best for: Skiers, snowboarders, and outdoor adventurers who want an added layer of safety when exploring the mountains. RECCO® does not replace avalanche gear, training, or safe decision-making, but it can improve the chances of being located by rescue professionals in an emergency.

Helly Tech® Performance

HELLY TECH® Performance is Helly Hansen’s versatile waterproof, windproof, and breathable technology designed for active outdoor use in changing conditions. Built for high-output activities like skiing and snowboarding, it provides reliable protection from snow, wind, and moisture while allowing excess heat and sweat vapor to escape. It offers a strong balance of weather protection, breathability, and durability for all-day performance on the mountain.

Best for: Resort skiing, snowboarding, touring, and active winter adventures where you need dependable protection without sacrificing mobility or comfort.

PrimaLoft® Black

PrimaLoft® Black is a lightweight synthetic insulation that delivers reliable warmth, softness, and packability without the bulk of traditional insulation. It retains its insulating performance even when damp, dries quickly, and provides consistent comfort in cold, wet conditions—making it an excellent choice for ski and snowboard outerwear.

Best for: Resort skiing, snowboarding, and everyday winter adventures where dependable warmth, weather resistance, and easy care are essential.
