The Helly Hansen HP Fleece Jacket is designed for adult male sailors and outdoor enthusiasts who require a reliable, versatile midlayer for inshore activities. Its primary benefit is a combination of warmth and unrestricted mobility, thanks to its specialized stretchy fleece construction. While it performs exceptionally well as a technical layer in chilly conditions, users should note that the fleece material is not inherently waterproof and is best paired with a shell jacket during heavy rain or wind.

No, the HP Fleece is designed for thermal insulation and breathability. It will absorb water, so it should be worn under a waterproof shell in wet conditions.
Yes, the stretchy fabric and breathability make it suitable for active sailing and hiking where temperature regulation is important.
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Hang dry for best results.
Wear it over a base layer (synthetic or merino wool) and under a waterproof shell for the best performance in cold and wet environments.
While the tight weave provides some resistance, it is not windproof. It is best used as a midlayer for wind protection provided by an outer shell.
The jacket follows a standard athletic cut. If you prefer a loose fit for heavy layering underneath, consider sizing up, though it is designed to be a slim-fit midlayer.
Use a light anti-static spray or wash with a technical garment wash designed to maintain fabric properties.
Use a fabric shaver gently on the surface to remove pills, then wash inside out to prevent further friction.
To ensure the longevity of your Helly Hansen fleece, follow these care instructions: machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking efficiency of the technical fabric. Always air dry or tumble dry on a low heat setting. For compatibility, this jacket is designed to be worn under standard Helly Hansen waterproof shells; check that your shell jacket size accommodates the medium fit of this fleece to avoid bunching at the shoulders or arms.
