Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Varde 2.0 Fleece Vest is a versatile, mid-layer solution for adult men looking to add warmth and comfort to their outdoor apparel system. Featuring a high-quality Polartec Thermal Pro sweater knit, this vest excels at providing thermal insulation without the bulk of a full jacket, though users should note it is designed primarily as a layering piece rather than a standalone outer shell in extreme weather.

Is the fit true to size?

What is the benefit of the heat-resistant chin guard?

Troubleshooting
