Remember these old school Helly Hansen jackets? I've had a good browse through the website and they've defiantly switched up their design. I'd love to see Helly Hansen go back to some of the clean designs of the 90's. Bringing back the yacht on the sleeve would be a good start.
The jackets were popular with 90's hip hop artists. Below is a still from Luniz 'I got 5 on it' -Ft. Bay Area All Stars.
Two more videos where the jacket featured.

Peace,
I had just used a line with Helly Hansen in it for a track I was featured on with my boy King Guttah. It was a joint about repping the East Side of Harlem. I said, "Chuckers/ Champions/ Helly Hansen/ Vasque/ Vanson/ button downs with the starched pop collar/ holla"
Big ups! for the post man.
Haaaa... I still have mine from '95... I got the red and blue one.
I'd really like to find some of the old ones. I'd still wear 'em.
-D!
I bought one of these jackets just a few days ago on ebay :)
really like the design ;)
peace!
There was also Xzibit who whore one of these in a early video of his, that was the reason many including me went out and bought one. Love the retro stuff, I guess you gotta when you start feeling old. Big fan of Helly Hansen since that video, amazing I did not even think about it until I seen your post.
Video was called Xzibit Paparazzi!!!
