*HELLY HANSEN: The world’s oldest sailing gear wear brand with over 130 years of history.
Helly Hansen was established in 1877 in Moss, a port city in Norway. The company has since been the provider of official wear for such prominent events as America’s Cup, the world’s most renowned sailing race, and Volvo Ocean Race, the world’s most feared offshore race. The brand has won the overwhelming confidence of the world’s top sailors for its outstanding performance and design. In the spring/summer of 2011, Helly Hansen launched its outdoor collection based on the theme of “from ocean to mountain,” recreating itself as an across-the-board outdoor brand.
Applying its 130 years of experience in marine wear technology, Helly Hansen showcases a unique style by combining the Scandinavian textile heritage with simple yet highly functional designs.
