A time-honored classic in the Feathered Friends line, the Helios has kept generations of climbers and outdoor enthusiasts warm over the years and remains one of our most popular jackets. Watching a garment perform over the course of several decades provided valuable insight that allowed us to gradually refine the Helios through a process of continuous design improvement. Rather than spend time chasing fashion trends, we took what we learned and built a better jacket by incorporating the latest advancements in textiles, updating our construction techniques and fine tuning the fit. The Helios has truly withstood the test of time. A water-resistant and breathable Pertex Endurance shell balances durability with weight savings, allowing the premium 850 fill power goose down to reach maximum loft. The result is the warmest jacket in its class; at less than 15 ounces and packed size close to 1.5 liters the Helios will quickly find a permanent spot in your pack. The signature hand-warmer pockets are unmatched for pure warmth and the no frills, overlapping Lycra entry design allows easy access while preventing your small items from dropping out. An internal zippered pocket is great for protecting the smaller things. Lycra cuff and hem closures seal in the heat.
