FAQs

What type of material is the jacket made from?

The jacket is made from Polartec fleece, known for its warmth and breathability.

Is this jacket suitable for very cold, winter conditions?

While warm, it is best suited as a mid-layer in very cold conditions. For extreme cold, layering with a base layer and a windproof/waterproof outer shell is recommended.

How do I wash the fleece jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleach and ironing.

Can I wear this jacket for intense physical activity?

Yes, the breathable fleece and flatlock seams make it comfortable for moderate to high-intensity activities like hiking or running in cool weather.

What is the purpose of the flatlock seams?

Flatlock seams are designed to lie flat against the skin, minimizing bulk and reducing the risk of chafing or irritation during activity.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The side pockets have zippers for secure closure. Pocket depth can vary, but they are generally suitable for carrying essentials like a smartphone, keys, or a wallet.

Does this jacket come in other colors or sizes?

This guide focuses on the Green, L size variant. Other colors and sizes may be available from Helly Hansen.

Troubleshooting

Fleece appears matted or less soft

Avoid high heat when drying. Excessive heat can compress fleece fibers. Wash with a mild detergent and air dry or tumble dry on low.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper track. Lubricate the zipper with a graphite pencil or wax if necessary.

Jacket provides insufficient warmth

This jacket is designed as a mid-layer. For colder conditions, layer it over a suitable base layer and consider adding a waterproof/windproof outer shell.
