Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Varde 2.0 Fleece Vest is designed for adult men who need a reliable, versatile mid-layer that offers core warmth without restricting arm movement. Featuring a classic Polartec® Thermal Pro® sweater knit, this vest provides an excellent balance of softness and durability, making it an ideal choice for outdoor adventures or casual daily wear. While it excels at layering, prospective buyers should note that as a vest, it does not provide full-arm protection against extreme wind or biting cold temperatures.

FAQs
Is the Varde 2.0 vest windproof?
While the Polartec® Thermal Pro® knit provides warmth, it is not fully windproof. It is designed to be breathable, which means some air can pass through.
Can I wear this vest in the rain?
It is not waterproof. It is best used as a mid-layer under a waterproof outer shell if you are expecting rain.
Does it have an interior pocket?
This model features exterior hand pockets with YKK® zippers but does not include dedicated interior pockets.
What is the benefit of bluesign® certification?
It indicates that the product was manufactured using sustainable methods that minimize impact on people and the environment.
How should I store this vest for the season?
Store it clean and dry in a cool, dark place. Hanging it on a proper hanger helps maintain the shape of the shoulder area.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to operate
Clear any debris or fabric snagged in the track and rub a graphite pencil tip along the teeth to act as a lubricant.
Static buildup in dry conditions
Lightly mist the inner lining with water or use a dedicated anti-static spray for synthetic garments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This vest is designed to be a direct-to-skin or mid-layer garment. For optimal performance, ensure you choose the size that fits snugly against your torso to trap heat efficiently. To care for your garment and maintain the integrity of the Polartec® fibers, machine wash it in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the technical qualities of the polyester knit. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry to maintain the shape of the elastic hem and the structural integrity of the YKK® zippers.
