Helly Hansen JR Salt 2 is a sailing jacket for kids and junior sailors that provides reliable protection when the weather changes at sea. With HELLY TECH Performance, the jacket is waterproof, windproof, and breathable, keeping you dry without feeling clammy. Articulated sleeves and a tailored fit let you move freely on deck, and a lining that dries quickly increases comfort between sessions. Safety and visibility are prioritized. The neon yellow hood is both packable and detachable, making you more visible and allowing you to adapt protection to the weather. SOLAS-approved reflective details help you be seen in darkness and fog. The high, soft-lined collar protects against chilly wind, while adjustable cuffs and a drawcord hem seal out rain and spray. Reinforced sleeve cuffs provide extra durability for frequent use.

Practical details make life on board easier: two front pockets with YKK zippers and an inner pocket for valuables. A D-ring lets you attach a kill cord when operating the boat. The materials are durable and easy to care for: shell in 100% polyamide combined with panels in 100% polyester and a lining in 100% polyester.

JR Salt 2 is perfect for coastal sailing, dinghy sailing, and family trips – and works just as well ashore on windy, wet days.

Water column

The jacket has a water column in the range of 10 000 – 20 000 millimeters. This provides reliable protection for active sailing and keeps you dry in rainy weather. The upper end of the range approaches levels for longer exposure in heavier rain.

Number of layers

The jacket uses HELLY TECH Performance with a waterproof, windproof membrane and a comfortable, quick-drying lining. The number of layers is not specified by the manufacturer, but the construction combines weather protection and breathability suitable for active sailing.

Function level

Function level: Regular. These are classic sailing clothes that provide solid protection against wind and rain, a high collar, and smart details for most trips in Swedish summer weather. You get a reliable garment without the weight and extreme reinforcements needed for prolonged offshore passages.

Compare in Helly Hansen’s range

Looking for alternatives in the Helly Hansen range? Pier 3.0 Coastal is the entry level with two-layer HellyTech Protection for coastal and leisure use. Skagen Offshore steps up in protection and details for tougher sailing with HellyTech Performance. The HP series (HP Foil, HP Racing Deck) is sportier and lighter for active sailing, with high mobility but not the same long-term protection as offshore gear.

Care and maintenance

Close the zippers before washing and wash with similar colors. Do not use fabric softener and do not soak the garment. Tumble dry to reactivate the water repellent finish. For best results, we recommend Nikwax Tech Wash for cleaning and Nikwax TX.Direct to maintain water protection. Avoid ironing on prints.

Approvals

SOLAS reflectors: international standard for marine safety providing high reflectivity and better visibility in darkness and poor weather.
