Helium Nova Down Hood Jacket | Women's Peak Performance Women's Insulated Jackets

Featherlight down warmth for changeable British days

There’s a particular kind of cold that comes with a British winter – not dramatic enough for proper snow gear, just persistent enough to ruin your afternoon. The Helium Nova is Peak Performance’s answer: 700 fill power duck down packed into a windproof ripstop shell that shrugs off light rain without complaint. At 386g it’s light enough to forget you’re wearing it, yet the relaxed, hip-length cut layers easily over a jumper for the school run, or under a shell if the weather turns nasty. The adjustable hood and drawcord hem keep draughts out, while the secure hand pockets are exactly where you’ll want them when you’re stood at the touchline pretending you’re not freezing. Scandinavian minimalism, mountain-tested warmth.

- Ethically sourced materials - The RDS certifies down against animal welfare requirements and tracks it from the source to the final product. The purchase of RDS certified products demonstrates demand for better animal welfare practices in the down and feather supply chain. Peak Performance is certified to the RDS.
Peak Performance started with two skiers on a chairlift in Åre, wondering why nobody made kit that worked as hard as they did. Forty years on, that same stubborn Scandinavian practicality runs through everything they make – gear built to survive the sort of weather that makes you question your enthusiasm for the outdoors, without looking like you’ve raided a search-and-rescue team’s locker. There’s a reason the motto “if it can handle Åre, it can handle anything” has followed them since day one. Reach for the brand’s Helium jackets on frost-bitten dog walks, stick one in your pack for the inevitable change in conditions halfway up a Lakeland fell, or layer it under a shell for reliable core warmth. Scandinavian minimalism meets genuine mountain pedigree – no fuss, no filler, just gear that gets on with the job.
