Helly Hansen
Mr. Helly Hansen in 1877 when he was working on his boat in Norway he realized that it was necessary to find clothes that would protect him from the cold of Norway and the wetness of the sea. So his wife started soaking clothes in linseed oil to create a waterproof layer that would protect him from the sea and humidity. He began to give these clothes to his workers and later to sell them to others and that's how Helly Hansen was created, which until today has the most durable sailing clothes._cc781905-5cde-3194- bb3b-136bad5cf58d_
