Story & heritage
The wiki extract notes that Helly Hansen launched Odin in 2008 as a 3-layer system for mountaineers and that the Odin collection won a Red Dot Design Award that year.
The official Odin 9 Worlds Infinity page calls the jacket award-winning and says the 3-layer shell returned with a watershed technology upgrade.
Materials & craft
Helly Hansen specifies a waterproof/breathable LIFA INFINITY™ membrane and LIFA INFINITY PRO™ technology, engineered for long-lasting water-repellent performance without added chemicals. The listed details include a 2-way central zip, pit zips, helmet and backpack-compatible design, adjustable hood, roomy gear pockets and articulated fit.
How to choose & style
Treat Odin as the highest-intent HH shell: it belongs over technical fleeces, base layers and mountain pants. Red is the expedition read; black turns the same shell into a stealthy alpine outer layer.
