Helly-Hansen Men's LIFALOFT Hooded Insulator Jacket

I have worn Helly Hansen before and I previously purchased a Large. This jacket in a large fit me perfectly. I am 5'10" and 215 lbs, in decent shape. It's lightweight, folds up easily, and keeps me warm and dry. I could easily wear this with a light sweater under it if I needed to stay warmer. If you're going to layer clothing to be in cold temperatures for any length of time, I suggest sizing up or buying a coat with more insulation.

Forgive me, I have to post one of those reviews where the item hasn't yet been used, just because we're already so happy! Expect an update after my husband can wear it in colder weather with some rain, wind, and hopefully snow.QUALITY: the jacket is a uniquely vibrant blue that is still subtle enough it doesn't look silly. The materials and design look premium compared to my similar Columbia brand jacket. The H/H jacket is also WAY lighter. It's so lightweight it's alarming---how can this still keep someone warm? My husband can't wait to find out how well the Norwegians, the world's greatest polar explorers, did.BUYING EXPERIENCE: the jacket arrived several days sooner than we were told by Amazon to expect (we no longer have Prime so chose the slow but free option). Most sellers would just stuff this in a plastic shipping bag, but ours came in a nice, perfectly-sized box, plus plastic wrapping inside. Premium shipping for a premium brand. Seller is really on the ball, and we will look to purchase from them again.CONCLUSION: you can buy a warm enough jacket from a big box store for $40, but it'll never be a "favorite" jacket. This jacket, on the other hand, will have you looking forward to zipping up.

My son was traveling to Japan during their winter. So after reading reviews I determined this would be a great purchase. He said it was adequately warm and waterproof. It’s very lightweight so easy to roll up and pack!

I wasn’t sure about this purchase but I really like my Helly Hansen raincoat, so I thought I’d try their other coats as well. It has been wonderful! My intent was to have an outer layer to wear with a short or long sleeve t shirt, for which it works perfectly. It’s also nice as a mid layer in colder temperatures or on very windy days. I will definitely keep purchasing from HH.Edit: I purchased a size Large. I’m 6’0”. 175lb. Broader shoulders, about 42-44 chest. In long sleeve shirts I wear a 16-16.5/34-35. Everything fits perfectly! In motion, the sleeves tend to move up but it’s no big deal.

The material on this jacket was very thin and the zipper didn't feel like it was very good quality. I would not recommend... and I returned it.

It is really perfect in the cold weather .

it's a great jacket, lightweight, dries up quickly after walking in the rain and looks good too. One thing to note, if you are used to buying uniqlo, go one size down with HH

Perfect fit!! My husband is a Helly-Hansen guy. He liked it a lot. It was his bday present.
