A timeless parka should be in the gear closet of anyone living in a zone that experiences cold spells. You might know Helly Hansen more for their bright, tech pieces designed for the gnarliest weather on the planet. The Killarney Parka is equipped with Helly Tech Protection and PrimaLoft insulation. It’s wind/water proof, and breathable, and will perform in nastiest weather. But it also looks great for a nice dinner out on a cold night in the city. I’ve been wearing this jacket to work on super cold days, and it’s been my go-to for a couple of frigid nights at Red Rocks, including the recent Winter on the Rocks, when temps dipped into the low teens.
BOTTOM LINE
Timeless design with world class hidden tech makes for a versatile parka that will never go out of style.
