This classic, feature-packet, ski jacket just got even better with the innovative Life Pocket!

A premium, iconic resort ski jacket has become better! A new masculine sign off incorporates clean design lines with cutting edge technologies. Our new Lifepocket is integrated into the chest pocket and will preserve the battery lifespan of your mobile longer in cold environments. You will not fall short of technical highlights on this jacket with a light 4 way highly breathable, waterproof, stretch HellyTech Professional outer fabric and a brim with hi vis fabric to unfold when the slopes are crowded to keep you visible for fellow skiers. The jacket uses Primaloft Insulation with a body mapping philosophy to keep you warm in the right areas, while our highly innovative H²Flow system turbocharging mechanical venting keeps you dry, warm or cool depending on the outside conditions. Premium ski features including stretch powder skirt, stretch lining and wrist gaiters with thumb hole are added for your comfort.

FEATURE LIST:

HellyTech Professional, waterproof, breathable, windproof
2 ply fabric construction, 4-way full stretch fabric
H²Flow System mechanical venting for optimal comfort
Life pocket with Primaloft Insulation
Primaloft Gold Insulation in body, Primaloft Black Hi-Loft 80g in sleeves and hood
RECCO Advanced Rescue system
Articulated arms and elbows for superior fit, Snap away stretch powder skirt
Dual hand warming pockets and two chest pockets with goggle shammy


HELLYTECH Professional HELLYTECH is a tough weatherproof outer layer, specially designed for the harshest conditions. It is a combination of a DWR-treated outer fabric, a highly breathable and waterproof membrane, and often a highly breathable inner fabric, mesh or lining. Extremely waterproof and breathable design and construction. For highly aerobic, extremely wet or unusually long-lasting activities in extremely harsh conditions.	HI-VIS Hood Brim Foldaway hi-vis brim for added safety when conditions require the extra visibility on the mountain. When the neon yellow pop is unnecessary, just fold the hood back over for a casual walk in the city.	LifePocket This special pocket holds the secret to keeping smartphones alive longer. Developed in collaboration with Primaloft and using thermal resistant materials, the Life Pocket stays two times warmer than a regular ski jacket pocket. That means more battery life to snap photos on the slopes or call in to the office.

The Optimist

This is my absolute favorite jacket ever!!!

Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2020

Size: X-LargeColor: 597 NavyVerified Purchase

I bought this jacket for a trip to Wisconsin, and had read both good and bad reviews... but once I received it, I knew I'd made a good decision. It is so incredibly comfortable and well-balanced. It just feels good to wear and kept me comfortable whether I was in 25 degree snow-blown craziness or a 60 degree mild morning. I love all of the pockets. The zippers function well. There are ventilation options on this thing that I haven't gotten to use yet, but I'm sure they will prove to be inline with the quality I've experienced so far.

If you're traveling and are looking to take just one jacket to keep you warm and dry in variety of climates, this is the one. I'm very happy with my purchase.

Quality built, very warm/water proof performance ski jacket.

Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2019

Size: MediumColor: BlackVerified Purchase

This jacket checks all the boxes for a high performance insulated ski jacket. It is now my go to jacket for in bounds/resort skiing. I have now tested it in wet snow and Very cold (-8 F) conditions and was completely dry and comfortable. The well sealed seams, quality zippers and powder skirt inside around the waist all work extremely well to keep the wind and snow out. It is also soft, flexible and light weight which makes it very comfortable for all day skiing and chair lift riding. The "Life Pocket" really did seam to preserve my phone battery life on cold days while running a resort app with GPS to track my ski stats. Best insulated jacket I have ever skied with in 45 years of gear testing. Bonus: My partner says it looks very good also. Should have bought it sooner.

Great jacket, came with loose stitches

Reviewed in the United States on November 26, 2017

Size: LargeColor: BlackVerified Purchase

Update: I emailed Helly Hansen support and they quickly replaced the coat. The entire turn-around was just a few days.

The coat itself is great. I'm 6'1, 200lbs with an athletic build and the Large fits great. The forearms are a little snug, but still fit a mid layer sweater just fine. Will update again after using on the mountain this weekend. Really pleased so far.

I would have given 5 stars, but (per the pictures) the stitching under the chest pockets was loose when the jacket arrived.
Really doesn't bode well for the longevity of the jacket.

Great skier's jacket

Reviewed in the United States on February 3, 2021

Size: LargeColor: NavyVerified Purchase

This is the replacement of my old NorthFace. My NorthFace has held up well but there's a ton of new niceities with this new HH jacket. Pockets for the lift pass, phone, wallet, goggles, gloves. Detachable hood, powder skirt and I don't know what to call those sleeve things. It's not super warm but I suppose it's made for layers. Seems to be true to size. Happy with seller & with product.

Solid Jacket, Solid Fit, Solid Price!

Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2020

Verified Purchase

I haven’t put this jacket through its paces yet, but I don’t think I’ve ever had an insulated ski jacket that fit this good without restricting my motion. This jacket is described as trim cut vs. the relaxed/baggy fit of some of its siblings. At 5’ 11”/220lbs, I typically have to go a size up, but not here as the XL fit me perfectly. Not too baggy or bulky despite the Primaloft insulation. I wear a 17.5 34/35 in men’s shirts and the jacket and sleeve length were also spot on.

Hard to beat the price either!

I returned the size medium yellow Alpha 3 and bought a blue large Alpha 3. I am 5'8" and weigh 172 lbs. I tend to keep my ski gear forever and a day and I don't see why the HH Alpha 3 won't last that long. The jacket is warm when it's cold outside and not overly warm during spring skiing.

Amazing jacket!

Excellent jacket! This jacket is as good as it gets. Warm, comfortable, and allows for excellent movement. Don’t get me wrong, it is a bit pricey but it’s a great jacket and made extremely well.

Be prepared to layer under this coat. My old HH was 10 times warmer, so I was a little letdown.

Really nice looking jacket

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 21, 2020

Size: MediumColor: BlackVerified Purchase

Functional - does all it should. Only loses a star because when it gets wet it crinkles up a bit around the zippers... looks weird. Not returned as once it dries it goes back to normal however being a 'ski' jacket that will often have wet snow or rain on it - not ideal.

Superb

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 12, 2020

Size: LargeColor: 222 Alert RedVerified Purchase

This jacket is light and non-bulky yet warm and functional. The details spell quality. I’ve yet to try on the slopes but it looks great and athletic and doesn’t restrict movement. It certainly keeps out the rain and wind but seems breathable (though this I haven’t really tested yet). I bought the jacket in Alert Red, which is rather more ‘orangy’ in tone than the bluer and darker reds that I generally prefer, but it’s a striking colour and certainly aids visibility.

This product is absolutely perfect and I'm delighted with the quality and workmanship gone into its manufacture. It's just a pity that the price dropped £30 after I purchased it." Brilliant Coat."

I tried it in Lapland when skiing during -21C and was perfect. The zippers could be better quality and need the ability to keep the hood on when windy. Apart from that, it's a great buy.
