Geschichte
Sea captain Helly Juell Hansen founded the company in 1877 in Moss, Norway, initially producing oilskin jackets for sailors. The brand introduced technical innovations such as the three-layer system and waterproof fabrics. While originally designed for industrial and maritime use, the apparel gained cultural significance in the 1990s as it was adopted by urban streetwear movements. It remains a staple in both professional workwear and technical outdoor fashion history.
