Helly Hansen Men's Dubliner Jacket

Helly Hansen is a globally recognized brand specializing in high-performance technical gear for sailing, skiing, and outdoor exploration. Founded in Norway in 1877 by sea captain Helly Juell Hansen and his wife Maren Margrethe, the brand began by producing oilskin jackets and trousers designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the sea.

Over the decades, the company pioneered several textile innovations, including the first fleece fabrics in the 1960s and the Helly Tech waterproof-breathable barrier in the 1980s. While its heritage is deeply rooted in Norwegian maritime culture, manufacturing for modern garments like the Dubliner jacket is distributed across a global supply chain, with production facilities primarily located in Southeast Asia, including Vietnam and Bangladesh, to support its international retail operations.

In 2018, the brand was acquired by Canadian Tire Corporation, which remains its ultimate owner. This acquisition integrated Helly Hansen into a large retail portfolio, enabling the brand to expand its presence across North America and Europe while maintaining its reputation for Scandinavian design and professional-grade quality.
