Check out the Review of the Helly Hansen Women’s Embla Hybrid Jacket at Lady and the Blog, where she says:

Helly Hansen has long been one of my favorite brands. I make clothes myself so I love looking at how well made their jackets always are. There’s always tons of optional elements and fun details, when you look closer. A few weeks ago, they sent me their latest trench, the W Embla Hybrid trench, to review and I fell in love. First of all, its white. How chic is a white trench! I kept checking the weather, hoping and praying for a rainy day (everyone wanted to kill me!) so that I could try it out. One FINALLY came and I got to wear it out. [Read the whole review] [ Buy the jacket here ]

Helly Hansen Men's Racing Mid Layer Jacket

Racing Mid Layer Jacket by Helly Hansen

This is the perfect insulating layer for cold-weather racing; it’s also the perfect outer layer for schlepping around town. “Gear Up” from our April 14, 2010, SW eNewsletter
by Michael Lovett

With WarmCore insulation and a fleece-lined collar, Helly Hansen’s Racing Mid Layer jacket can take the chill out of spring race days.

Helly Hansen designed its Racing Mid Layer jacket with a specific purpose in mind. The lightweight, insulated jacket slips easily between a protective outer layer and a moisture-wicking base layer, filling a key role in the wardrobe of the properly dressed cold-weather sailor. Like blue jeans and bomber jackets, however, this purpose-built garment has serious crossover potential. Put it this way: You’ll want to write your name on the inside tag, just to clear up the confusion when your spouse/offspring/roommate tries to sneak off with the jacket.  [ Read the whole review ] [ Buy it here ]

Skiing Magazine, Feb/March 2010
HELLY HANSEN STRIPE CREW GRAPHIC ($45) AND SLX SEAMLESS PANTS ($55)
When it comes to keeping skiers warm, trust Norway’s Helly Hansen, which developed the first technical baselayers
way back in the 1970s. Top and bottom both sport hydrophobic fibers that transport water away from your skin. Tiny patterns woven into the fabric facilitate the wicking.

BackPacker Magazine’s The Green Scene reviews the Helly Hansen North Marker.
“High level performance in a low impact package—that’s Helly Hansen’s North Marker 3L XP Ekolab Jacket in a nutshell. This waterproof jacket has a polyurethane membrane that’s breathable as Paclite, and dry even when I was kneeling in a puddle to pitch my tent. The jacket is cut long in back for extra weather protection, with pit zips and a removable powder skirt that kept weather out and let me temperature regulate 99% of the time in conditions from mist to snow.” [Read the article]

Shell Games

By Doug • December 8, 2009

Welcome to our rundown of the best threads for a hard day on the hill.

ECO
Helly Hansen North Marker 3L XP
It should be enough that this shell performs pefectly for those who spend a lot of time riding lifts and bombing down as fast as possible—it sheds the elements and the pockets are well placed. It’s almost impossible to believe that Helly created it at this price and entirely green, including a waterproof breathable membrane that’s recyclable. $325; hellynewengland.com

Hayden Jacket

The Helly Hansen Hayden Jacket is the bomber jacket that you can trust whether you’re flying down the slopes on sticks or shredding some gnar. We’ve tested plenty of jackets this year and the Helly Hansen Hayden was our favorite hands down.

This jacket not only performs like a rock star on the slopes, but you also look pretty sharp grabbing a cold one after a long day. The Hayden comes with a snow skirt to keep powder from flying up your back, wrist gators with thumbholes to keep snow from getting up your sleeve, and a helmet compatible removable hood to keep your head warm and snow from going down your back.

The Hayden looks like a hard shell from afar, but when you put the jacket on, you’ll notice this jacket actually has an outer made from 4 way stretch softshell fabric, giving you great flexibility when you’re playing in the park or pushing the limits down the steep slopes. To keep you warm, the Hayden has the Helly Tech XP with Thinsulate insulate.

To give you an idea, we usually wore a long sleeve thin moisture wicking shirt and we stayed plenty warm. The pockets are a little unconventional in that they open in a horizontal fashion, but this makes it super easy to keeps your hands warm or store some easy to access items such as a sandwich or a cell phone.

Last but definitely not least, the Helly Hansen Hayden comes with the Recco Reflector system that allows you to be tracked if you are caught in an avalanche. This does guarantee that you will be found in case the unexpected happens, but it sure does help. And to those who say you are resort skiers or snowboarders and avalanches don’t happen there; think again, they do sometimes occur in even the nicest of resorts as well as in the backcountry.

As you might imagine, we highly recommend this jacket to those who like top of the line gear, we promise you won’t be let down.
