Helly Hansen Elevate Jacket - Men's
GOOD Jacket!!
By JUSTONBELIEVABLE
Ranked #469 - Men's Technical Shells
February 11, 2009
Was in between 4 and 5 stars, so I rounded up. Again with previous people who rated this jacket, it is a bit tight in the armpits. Semi-slim fit. I got a size small at 5'8", jacket arm length and torso length is good. This jacket has done me well in the cold (-20) and good skiing too. The hood seems to fit well over helmets. Seems a bit tight when fully zipped on my face, but small holes near you nose in the jacket allow you to breath freely, and is a nice feature. My only complaint about the jacket is the zipper on my jacket gets caught on a rubber strip on the inside of the jacket, but could just be my jacket. Otherwise this jacket has kept me warm and dry on the nastiest of days in the Adirondacks, and cool enough on those warm days skiing in Colorado!
