Are the Bliss Après Boots fully waterproof?

Yes. Helly Hansen rates the upper at 6/6 waterproofness, and the PFC-free DWR treatment sheds snow and rain. Owners confirm dry feet in slush.

They use 300 grams of PrimaLoft Eco insulation, rated 5/6 by Helly Hansen. That suits freezing winter days and resort wear, not extreme polar cold.

Do they fit true to size?

Most owners say yes, but some find them narrow through the midfoot. If you wear thick socks or have wide feet, consider going up half a size.

Are they good for hiking?

No. They are après and town boots with a comfort insole, not a technical hiking boot. For trails, look at Helly Hansen's hiking-specific models.

What is the outsole made of?

A rubber outsole with HH Max Grip, made with 30% recycled rubber. It grips packed snow and icy paths well.

Can I wear them in mild weather?

They are heavily insulated, so feet can get warm above freezing. They are best for cold winter conditions.

Our take on the Helly Hansen Women's Bliss Apres Boots

The Bliss Après Boot is Helly Hansen's women's winter boot for snowy streets, ski resort villages and cold commutes. It pairs a fully waterproof upper with 300 grams of PrimaLoft Eco insulation, a padded faux-fur collar and an HH Max Grip rubber outsole with 30% recycled content. That puts it above fashion-led après boots on weather protection and warmth, though it is bulkier and less sleek than city winter boots. Owners like the warmth and dry feet; the lace-up fit and weight are the usual trade-offs.
