The Full Story
The Women's Helios Jacket takes on the British weather with ease. This lightweight and packable insulated jacket uses two types of synthetic Insuloft insulation to shield you from the winter chill.
Designed to protect you from the weather's harshest elements, the Helios Jacket can be layered under a waterproof to keep you warm in the pouring rain, or worn as a protective outer layer against the biting cold. The ripstop outer is made of polyester and coated with our innovative Durable Water Repellency finish, which adds water repellency and resistance against light rain showers, as it forces water droplets to bead up and run off the outside of the jacket.
Inside, body mapped synthetic Insuloft R-XE insulation keeps you warm as you move. Made from 100% recycled polyester, Insuloft R-XE is compact, soft and dense, and won’t lose warmth if it gets wet while you’re out exploring. On the chest panels, a membrane has been added to the insulation to create Insuloft Core Screen, which draws moisture away from your body and through the material, keeping you comfortable on your most active adventures, from morning dog walks in your local area to winter hikes in the Peaks.
When it’s really cold, you can lock more heat in by tightening the single-point adjustment on the back of the hood, and when it starts to warm up, the internal zipped pocket on the Helios Jacket doubles as a PackPocket, so it can be easily compressed and stored in between adventures.

Women's Helios Lightweight Insulated Jacket
This lightweight, insulated jacket uses two types of synthetic Insuloft insulation crafted from 100% recycled polyester, to keep you warm as you move. A Durable Water Repellency finish offers protection from unexpected, light rain showers.

Our DWR finish is an advanced treatment which dramatically increases the water repellency of our fabrics. On its own, it offers a useful level of shower resistance; used in conjunction with our Barricade technology, it reduces the tendency of the face fabric to wet out and maximizes breathability.

Clever design is more often than not about what to take off rather than what to put on. It’s about giving one feature multiple functions. That’s why many of our garments feature a Packpocket. This handy addition converts pockets into space-saving storage by compressing the garment into itself. You could use it as a travel pillow when it’s all packed down too.

Insuloft is an advanced synthetic wadding that offers a better warmth-to-weight ratio than polyester fleece and better performance when wet than conventional down. It’s durable, compressible, lightweight, easy to wash and fast drying – it’s the perfect choice for cold-weather protection.

Losing possessions when you’re close to home is frustrating, but losing your car keys, passport, phone or wallet while you’re travelling can really spoil your adventure. That’s why we put lots of thought into developing safer pockets – deeper, zipped and hidden.
