Frequently Asked Questions

Are the Helly Hansen Rider 2.0 Bibs waterproof?
Yes. Rider 2.0 uses HELLY TECH® Performance and has a 17,000 mm water column. Helly Hansen rates the bibs 5/6 for waterproofness and 5/6 for breathability, making them a strong option for active days in wet and snowy winter conditions. Helly Hansen
How warm are the Rider 2.0 Snow Bibs?
They use PrimaLoft® Black 100g insulation, and Helly Hansen gives them a 4/6 insulation rating. They're designed to provide warmth for cold-weather activities while still supporting the movement kids need for skiing, sledding, outdoor school, and snow play. Helly Hansen
Are the knees and seat reinforced?
Yes. Helly Hansen adds reinforcement fabric at the knees, seat, and hems—high-wear areas for kids who spend plenty of time kneeling, sitting, climbing, and playing in the snow. The seat also uses a no-back-seam construction designed for additional waterproofness and durability. Helly Hansen
How do the Helly Hansen Rider 2.0 Bibs fit, and is there room to grow?
Helly Hansen reports that customers describe Rider 2.0 as fitting true to size and recommends choosing your child's regular size. Adjustable elastic suspenders, stretch panels, an elastic waist, and adjustable length help fine-tune the fit, while the extendable leg length provides additional flexibility as kids grow.
Can I pair the Rider 2.0 Bibs with the Rider Winter Jacket?
Yes. Pair the Rider 2.0 insulated bibs with the Helly Hansen Rider insulated winter jacket for waterproof, insulated coverage from top to bottom. We especially like this combination for outdoor school, ski days, sledding, snowy playgrounds, and kids who spend long stretches of winter outside.

Ordering bulk with Outdoor School Shop was just as easy and seamless as I had hoped!
