Helly Hansen Manchester Work Pant

Helly Hansen is a venerable name in the apparel industry, originating in Norway in 1877 when sea captain Helly Juell Hansen began producing waterproof oilskin jackets. Today, the Manchester line represents their core functional workwear designed for professional use, combining the brand's heritage of protection with modern durability. While the brand was born in the harsh Norwegian elements, its production has expanded globally to meet international demand.

Ownership of the brand has transitioned through several major corporate entities over the decades. In 2018, the Canadian retail giant Canadian Tire Corporation acquired Helly Hansen, integrating it into their extensive portfolio of outdoor and industrial brands. This acquisition has provided the brand with robust financial backing and a massive retail network, particularly in North America, while maintaining its design roots and corporate headquarters in Oslo, Norway.
