WHAT IS LIFA®?

In 1970, Helly Hansen’s Lifa® revolutionized the industry with the introduction of the first technical base layers. The fabric is based on a yarn technology that moves moisture away from the skin and transports it to the surface of the fabric, where it evaporates, leaving the wearer warm, dry and comfortable.

OUR LIFA® TECHNOLOGY

LIFA® delivers excellent moisture management and insulation and has been tested and developed with the help of professionals making their living in some of the world’s harshest environments. LIFA’s 3-step moisture management system works seamlessly to protect you in cold temperatures.

WARM

The lightweight insulating fibres help you stay warm and comfortable.

DRY

The mesh construction absorbs the moisture, moving it away from the skin to the surface of the fabric where it evaporates, keeping your skin sweat-free.

COMFORTABLE

Warm + Dry = Comfortable. The combination of insulating fibres, moisture management and soft, lightweight fabrics allows you to stay comfortable in variable conditions
