Helly Hansen Ridge Infinity Shell Jacket - Men'sby Helly Hansen

Product Info

The Helly Hansen Ridge Infinity Shell Jacket is built for skiers who like their terrain steep, their powder deep, and their jackets seriously capable. Developed with professional skiers, the 3-layer HELLY TECH® PROFESSIONAL + LIFA INFINITY™ construction delivers high-level waterproof and breathable protection without built-in insulation, so you can layer it up or down depending on the day. Smart details like the LIFE POCKET™, phone leash, RECCO®, underarm vents, and removable powder skirt make this a shell that’s ready for everything from storm days to bluebird missions.

We recommend this for:

Experienced freeriders, backcountry skiers, and advanced resort skiers who regularly chase deep snow, steep terrain, and challenging conditions. Its uninsulated shell design is ideal for skiers who prefer to layer for the conditions and want serious weather protection, breathability, mobility, and smart backcountry features.

Technical Features

Warmth Rating

The Ridge Infinity is an uninsulated shell, so it provides essentially no built-in warmth. That’s by design—it gives you the flexibility to add a base layer, fleece, or puffy depending on the conditions and activity level.

Waterproof Rating

With 3-layer HELLY TECH® PROFESSIONAL + LIFA INFINITY™, fully seam-sealed construction, and a DWR finish, this is top-tier weather protection. Helly Hansen doesn’t assign a specific water-column rating, but the construction is designed for serious snow, storms, and demanding backcountry conditions and is estimated to perform in the 20K+ range.

HELLY TECH® PROFESSIONAL + LIFA INFINITY™

Think of these as the jacket’s weather-defense team. HELLY TECH® PROFESSIONAL is Helly Hansen’s high-performance waterproof, windproof, and breathable construction, while LIFA INFINITY™ is the membrane technology at the heart of the system. LIFA INFINITY™ is made using a solvent-free process, avoiding the use of chemicals typically used to create traditional waterproof membranes. Together, they create a durable 3-layer shell that keeps snow, wind, and moisture out while allowing heat and sweat vapor to escape when you’re working hard. The result is serious weather protection with a more thoughtful approach to how the waterproof membrane is made.

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.
