Helly Hansen's Trail Parka
Helly Hansen's Trail Parka (Thierry Desfontaines)
Busting out at nearly four and a half pounds, HELLY HANSEN's TRAIL PARKA—the heaviest in our lineup—makes the cold go away, whether you're braving Michigan Avenue or McMurdo Station. The weight comes from 650-fill down innards, a rugged nylon shell with a water-resistant Teflon coating, and a periscope-style faux-fur hood for total face protection. $300; 800-435-5901, www.hellyhansen.com
