For as long as I can remember I've had an affinity to Helly Hansen's kit. I've  always skiied in their jackets and pants (salopettes to we Brits) as I figured that the Norweigans knwo how to keep themselves warm and dry.

Helly Hansen have been steadily branching out into the adventure sports market over the last few years with the addition of a small range of riding jerseys. The huge bonus for us though is their wet weather and cool weather gear.

Our guide are kitted out with rain jackets and softshells to keep the elements at bay, and even with a full season of 'ride, wash, repeat', the stuff still looks as good as new - and still keeps them warm and dry too!
