Manufacturing professional-grade outerwear for over 140 years
In 1877, sea captain Helly Juell Hansen sought a better way to protect himself from the harsh elements of Norway. This quest led to the creation of waterproof oilskin outerwear made from coarse linen soaked in linseed oil. Over the years, the design has undergone many improvements and incorporated innovative materials. Today, Helly Hansen outerwear is trusted by professionals working on oceans, mountains, and construction sites. It is specifically designed to withstand the wettest and harshest conditions where performance, protection, and safety are of utmost importance.
