Why shop
Three reasons to choose Helly Hansen Canada.
Waterproof Shells for Sailing and Rain
Helly Hansen's sailing and rain shells are engineered to keep water out and mobility in. Expect high collars, robust waterproof membranes, sealed seams and adjustable cuffs built for coastal conditions. The Canadian assortment includes high-visibility options, packable shells and sailing-specific cuts—practical for mariners or commuters who need durable, reliable protection that layers easily with technical mid- and base layers.
Insulated Jackets for Mountain Conditions
Insulated ski and mountain jackets balance warmth with movement—choose from lightweight synthetic fills to lofted insulated parkas featuring powder skirts, articulated sleeves and helmet-compatible hoods. Helly Hansen prioritizes dryness and compressibility so jackets perform on long descents and lift rides, with technical cuts and colourways that transition seamlessly from backcountry excursions to après-ski.
