Helly Hansen – Review of Women’s Ride Cycling Jacket
If you are into outdoor or trend workwear attire then you must have heard of a Norwegian brand named Helly Hansen.
This brand is renowned for its top-notch outdoor clothing and focuses on practicality as well while making the clothing look stylish.
Women’s Jacket by Helly Hansen
The first look
The jacket felt very lightweight after the first inspection. It was like a second skin. Also, it was noticed that the taped seams inside the jacket were a great thing. The waterproof garment makes it a big hit. However, the color of the jacket was slightly less appealing.

Reviews after an outing
After putting on the jacket, the material felt soft and wasn’t heavy, and felt breathable. Also, while riding the length of the arms was perfect and fitted perfectly. Also, the added features in the jacket like the hood, ventilation as well as drawcord adjustment were useful. The pockets of the jackets were of roomy size.
Additionally, I really liked the added features of the hood, ventilation and drawcord adjustment at the bottom. I felt that all of these features were useful and not just a gimmick. Similarly, I’m happy to report that although it’s a women’s specific piece, the pockets were actually a roomy size. Finally, real pockets for women!
Is it actually waterproof?
The jackets by Helly Hansen are stylish as well as practical. The material of the jacket beaded water that came in contact with it. The water didn’t get absorbed. Therefore, the jackets are highly waterproof and are perfect for the rainy season.
