Helly Hansen jacket wins ‘Best of the Best’ Red Dot award
27/04/2017
This year’s competition was fierce with more than 5,500 submissions from 54 countries. All of the entries were individually assessed and evaluated by an independent and international jury of experts. Helly Hansen’s technical Icon jacket came out on top and was awarded the highest Red Dot classification.
Part of Helly Hansen’s most successful line ever, the Icon is an insulated jacket featuring a new version of the Norwegian company’s propriertary H2Flow temperature-regulation system, which channels and directs cold air along the user’s core and releases it through air ports on the inside of the jacket. Helly Hansen describes this as being “just like an effective air-conditioned sports car”. It says the jacket’s system is 20% more efficient than a regular jacket in cooling athletes down.
