The story of the Helly Hansen brand began in 1877. After many years at sea, Norwegian captain Helly Juell Hansen returned home at the age of 35. And so, with his wife Maren Margarethe, they began making jackets, pants, sweaters and tarpaulins from thick linen, soaked in linseed oil in the small coastal village of Moss, on the Oslo fjord... Helly Hansen's heritage is that of a brand that has left its mark with numerous innovations and revolutionary garments throughout the twentieth century.
