Hunter's comment
Conventionally speaking, waterproof coats are sprayed with a water-repellent chemical that makes rain bead up and roll off the coat, instead of soaking in. The coating also means the material beneath it can be breathable, stopping from you getting too hot underneath.
Unfortunately, those chemicals have a habit of washing off, shortening the coat’s life and polluting the environment.
Now, Helly Hansen is using a new kind of material that has small enough pores to keep water from coming in, but lets hot vapour (sweat) out. This potentially means the coat could stay waterproof for its entire life, with no need for extra coatings, or the pollution that comes with the process.

This does look like an interesting innovation to keep coats waterproof for the entire life of the coat.
