FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, this is a fleece midlayer. It is designed for warmth and breathability rather than water protection.

Can I wear this under a sailing jacket?

Yes, its low-profile, stretchy fit makes it an ideal midlayer for use underneath a technical sailing shell.

How should I wash the HP Fleece?

Wash on a gentle cycle in cold water and hang to air dry for best results.

Is the fabric heavy?

The jacket is designed to be lightweight and flexible to ensure ease of movement while maintaining warmth.

Is this suitable for high-intensity activity?

Yes, the breathable nature of the fleece helps manage moisture during periods of higher physical exertion.

Troubleshooting

Visible pilling on fabric surface

Wash the garment inside out and avoid mixing with abrasive fabrics to minimize friction during the wash cycle.

Loss of elasticity over time

Ensure the jacket is never exposed to high heat in a dryer, which can break down the elastic components of the fabric.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment does not require any specialized setup. To ensure longevity, machine wash the fleece on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent. It is recommended to hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the stretch fibers. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the performance properties of the fleece material. For optimal layering, match the size of this fleece with your standard Helly Hansen waterproof shells to ensure a compatible fit.
