Rain pants for wet work
These Helly Hansen rain pants are built for men who need reliable wet-weather protection on the job. The PVC and polyester HAWA fabric blocks rain while the polyester lining adds comfort against the skin. An elastic waist and snap ankles make them quick to pull on over boots. They meet EN 343 class 3 for water penetration resistance.
Thermals noise and power draw in normal use
The 35 mil thick fabric weighs 14.1 oz and traps body heat without a separate insulation layer. No zippers or vents mean there is no mechanical noise when you move. The material does not generate heat so there is no power draw to consider. Breathability is limited to the EN 343 class 1 rating so expect warmth build-up during high exertion.
EN 343 3 1 certification decides fit
The EN 343 3 1 rating confirms the highest water penetration resistance with the lowest breathability class. Choose these pants when staying dry is the priority and sweat management is secondary. They will not suit workers who need high airflow or a high-visibility garment. The 32 inch inseam and 34 1/2 inch maximum waist fit a standard medium build.

Questions about this item
How do I put on the 70429 rain pants and what step is often missed?
Step into each leg, pull the elastic waist up to the 34 1/2 in maximum, then fasten the ankle snaps over your boots — skipping the snaps lets water run inside.
What part of the 70429 rain pants will wear out first and need replacement?
The 35 mil PVC coating on the polyester shell will eventually crack or delaminate, so the whole garment is replaced when the coating fails.
Which limit of the 70429 rain pants appears first during long shifts in steady rain?
The EN 343 Class 1 breathability rating means moisture vapour builds up inside after extended exertion, making the wearer feel damp before the PVC leaks.
