Description of Helly Hansen Republic Jacket - Men's:
The people of Helly Hansen designed the Men’s Republic Jacket to provide a fair and just balance between durable weather protection and insulating warmth. Thanks to Helly WarmCore insulation and the two-layer Helly Tech waterproof shell, you’ll enjoy comfortable riding and skiing no matter the conditions. The removable faux-fur hood and Underarm zips give you some fine tuning on temperature, and the jacket-to-pant interface creates a seal against blowing snow.
as a Helly Hansen athlete this has been one of my favourite jackets to be up the mountain and out in the elements with. it is waterproof, warm , and keeps me dry and ready to keep riding. I like the styling on this jacket alot too.
This is an alround good snow jacket. Better for mild to moderate conditions. It is fairly basic with not many features but is comfortable, extremely waterproof, and the fur hood is warming. There is a powder skirt unlike what the discription states and the removable hood is nice for those days you don't need it. You can take off the fur trim as well if you don't like it.
I've always been a fan of Helly Hansen so I was pleased to find one at such a great price. I am not a fan of the fur hoods but it definitely keeps the snow and wind out of my face when there is a storm. I just unzip it off on normal days.
This jacket is so warm I can wear a t-shirt underneath and still not feel a thing! As I said, I have always been a fan of Helly Hansen and I have never been dissapointed. Thanks for the great product at a great price
