Helly Hansen SuperStretch Jacket – All Direction, All Weather Protection
By Editor | September 30, 2013
The Helly Hansen SuperStretch Jacket is one jacket that will give you plenty of protection without restricting your movement when having fun at your favorite activities.
The SuperStretch fabric is quite stretchy and moves in all four directions allowing for lots of freedom of motion in wet cold environments, which makes it perfect for skiing, snowboarding and mountain climbing.
The Helly Hansen Superstretch also breathes quite well venting out hot moisture air inside and for even more expulsion of moist air there are large arm-zippers to keep you comfortable and not sweating too much.
It is a true four season jacket that can be worn in all types of situations. The slim fit and longs sleeves are a little bit more suited for taller individuals or people with long torsos and the weight of the jacket is heavier than ultra-light material jackets, but it is worth it for the protection it provides.
Features:
- 2-ply Helly Tech Professional (15K, 21K) full-stretch fabric
- Articulated shoulders and elbows
- Underarm zips
- Fully adjustable hood, helmet compatible
- YKK Aquaguard zippers
- Mesh liner, moisture-wicking
- Adjustable bottom hem, one-hand drawcord
The Helly Hansen SuperStretch is available for both men and women.
