Helly Hansen Gale Men's Rain Jacket, Waterproof, Stretch Fit, Hiking Jacket

Absolutely amazing rain, true rain jacket. It's not a shell, or a wind breaker claiming to be a waterproof jacket. This is a very quality true waterproof jacket. Great hood size and can tuck away under the collar. Draw strings everywhere to get the fit just right, chest pocket and 2 regular pockets, zipper is strong and covered by 2 flaps with strong buttons so water doesn't get through the zipper. Very good and not tight like a turtle neck, neck protection. Fairly light weight as far as oz. But not thin and not a rubber suit. Perfect in between. I sized up (6'3 270lbs) belly and chest are good, little loose which is fine. Arm length and torso length are perfect. IF YOU ARE TALL SIZE UP

Pros. Fits as advertised in size charts, and so far it's kept me dry though I've not been in heavy or extream weather conditions, I have been in light rain with medium wind as well as medium rain with little to no wind and so far it has not let the water in (no added water proofing was done by me its just straight out of the box) now I will say that if you want this to be your main wet weather jacket like my self I would suggest getting something to layer under it for warmth as this is not insulated so during freezing temp you too will be freezing. to circle back to sizing I'm 5,11 and 145lbs not fit just a regular build and got the extra small, my chest is 34 inches and my hips are a 30 and this jacket is by far the best fitting jacket I've had in my adult life with just enough room to get a basic sweater or zip up under for extra warmth on the days/nights that drop in temp (can be seen in pics over a basic sweater in one as well as over both the sweater and waiters in another) Cons. my only hang up is the cuffs being a neoprene (wetsuit like material) that is tight on the wrists (I have nerve damage on the top of my thumb and it can be difficult getting the cuff over without it hurting) it can also be a little difficult if you wear a watch. I'm also just not a fan of the main two pockets design there like cargo pockets but them being straight vertical designs they are not convenient for your hands as well as the tops only have a flap and doesn't actually have anything to secure the pockets closed so I don't want to trust them with anything that needs to stay dry

I work outside and, on a day with downpour and snowy conditions, I wore a windbreaker and promptly got soaked and spent the remainder of the day shivering. My colleagues, one of whom had a Helly Hansen rain jacket, stayed dry the whole time. I bought one for myself and would buy again. This jacket will keep you dry (will also keep you exceptionally warm, sometimes too much so).

Love this and bought for Ireland trip and needed near every day. High quality Helly Hanson at great price. Size matched and stayed dry. Love the pockets and zippers!

Fantastic jacket I’m 5’ 9” @ 170 lbs got a large and it fits well. It isn’t heavy as you may think, the color matches the navy shown in the photo. The warmth isn’t really existent in cold rain you will feel it with just a t shirt but it’s summer time so that’s okay, winter or fall just layer and it will work great. It isn’t going to be breathable like something in DWR, but it’s better than DWR in my opinion by far. The zipper functions correctly no issue so far, haven’t wore it for work yet, but durability seems to with stand a toddler unleashing the beast on it because he like the play with the material. People complain about the neoprene cuffs. I personally like them, they are not too tight for me as some people say. Bottom line if you want to stay dry get this jacket. It’s worth the cost but not overly expensive. I was just outside in Michigan rain a few days ago and everybody else was soaked and I was bone dry. Also no I’m not paid to do this review, I’m just a regular dude.

Nice quality jacket will definitely keep you dry. Returned it only because of the cuffs. The neoprene is great but the cuffs are really wide and would seem to get in the way

If, as I do, you occasionally find yourself driving an open boat through a tropical rainstorm, then this is the ideal rain jacket. It keeps me 100% dry inside it with no loss of mobility.

Every fisherman should own these. Excellent fit, and function. Great value for the price. It’s Helly Hansen and they did it right with this set. It’s very functional with easy movement. The legs are a little baggy at the bottom but I’m sure it’s the design to clear boots, and the snap button on the bottom helps reign things in. I fish Puget Sound and the coast, usually in crappy weather, rough water, (and for fun, if you believe that, LOL). It’s great to take these off after slinging bait, fish slime, blood, and fish parts, and just hose them off, throw em on a hanger and they dry ff faster than you’d expect. There’s a big price gap between these and commercial grade ones like Grundens and top of the line Hellys. For the money, these cannot be beat and will likely last me a good five years or so with regular Use and care. Good color selection. Versatile. Lightweight. Good price. What more can you ask of these?!?!

Heel goed

Buon prodotto. Sono rimasto sdiisfatto.

Belle qualité et souplesse du produit. Moins rigide qu’un ciré classique je n’ai pas encore testé sous une pluie battante. Le produit est bien fait et semble solide

PUR material is the better option than other plastics.

Wat ik verwacht van Helly Hansen is kwaliteit en dit is weer bij deze bevestigd . Zoals de Nooren zeggen , er bestaat geen slecht weer alleen slechte kleding . En voor de verkoper , snelle levering en super goede communicatie , en super prijs Mvg Dennis
