Description
This Is The Story Of Helly Hansen
From our home in Norway, Helly Hansen has been making professional grade gear to help people stay and feel alive for over 140 years. It all started in 1877 when sea captain Helly Juell Hansen found a better way to stay protected from the harsh Norwegian elements. Captain Hansen and his wife Margrethe launched a business producing waterproof oilskin jackets, trousers, sou’westers and tarpaulins made from coarse linen soaked in linseed oil ? and the legend was born!
Helly Hansen gear is trusted by professionals on oceans, mountains and worksites. As the apparel brand for Ski Professionals, you’ll find HH at more than 200 ski resort and guiding operations around the world, and worn by more than 55,000 ski professionals. Our sailing gear is worn by world-class sailors across all five oceans, and we’re a proud partner for some of the sport’s most iconic regattas and sailing associations. We continue to support Captain Hansen’s legacy through a long list of first-to-market innovations.

1877: Captain Helly Juell Hansen Launches A LegendNorwegian captain Helly Juell Hansen wanted to find a better way to protect his sailors from the harsh, Nordic weather. By applying linseed oil to cotton canvas, he created supple, water-proof apparel. Soon after, he and his wife Margarethe started producing “oilskin” jackets and pants in Moss, Norway. Their waterproof gear was an immediate success, landing our first product award at the World Expo in Paris in 1878. |
1949: Helox - The Next Evolution In WaterproofHelox waterproof fabric featured a thin sheet of translucent PVC plastic that was sewn into coats took to make them waterproof. It was a revolutionary technology that became the must-have protection for outdoor use. With a production of 30,000 coats each month, the success was almost immediate and was used by the Norwegian delegation at the 1952 Olympic Games in Helsinki. |
1961: Fiberpile - The Technical Midlayer Is InventedHelly Hansen partnered with Norwegian Fiber Pile Inc. and developed the original Fiberpile ? the first fleece. It featured a high warmth to weight ration and maintained its thermal qualities even when wet, making it a favorite of lumberjacks and outdoor enthusiasts. The concept lives on and the modern version of ProPile is still in production today. |
1970: Lifa ? The Birth Of Technical BaselayerHH’s LIFA revolutionized the industry with the introduction of the first technical baselayers. LIFA moves moisture away from the body allowing users to stay warm and comfortable. It has been used by professionals on every ocean, many of the world’s tallest peaks and was included in Outside Magazine’s list of The Most Influential Gear of All Time in 2012. LIFA remains the cornerstone of what we believe is the best technical baselayer available today. |

1990: Prowool - The Perfect Blend Of Lifa And MerinoThe Prowool (renamed HHWarm) baselayer for cold weather conditions was launched in the late 90’s, combining Lifa Stay-Dry Technology with Merino wool for both moisture transport and added warmth. Designed for professionals facing the coldest conditions it quickly became the go-to piece for performance, warmth and comfort in extreme environments. |
2004: Footwear - Expanding Into Professional Grade FootwearIn response to demands from professionals around the world, footwear was added to the product line. One of our first efforts was an award winning sailing boot.
