Helly Hansen Women’s Volt Jacket

Promise

Slim-fitting hiking gear that protects you from the harsh weather without surrendering to weight or restricting your movement.

Performance

The jacket was remarkably well fitted, with a good cut that hugs the figure in the right places. Importantly, it wasn’t too long – women’s outdoor jackets can hang low at the back like men’s ones, even though they’re hardly the same shape! The Volt is light and made from Helly’s own TECH XP fabric: even more waterproof and breathable than their standard TECH fabrics, in fact. It incorporates stretch fabrics in strategic zones around the jacket to really free up your movements.

Verdict

A truly great jacket for the outdoors – stood up to wind and showers, plus it’s comfy enough to wear all the time.
