Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Versalite Fleece Jacket is an essential mid-layer for adult women who enjoy high-activity pursuits like skiing and hiking or seek a reliable, lightweight jacket for everyday adventures. Its primary benefit is a high-performance grid fleece construction that balances warmth, moisture management, and breathability in a compact form. Note that because of its technical, snug-fit design, it is best utilized as a layering piece rather than a heavy-duty standalone outer shell in extreme weather conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, this is a performance fleece designed for breathability and warmth. It is not waterproof and should be worn under a shell in rainy or snowy conditions.
How should the jacket fit?
The jacket is designed with a snug, athletic fit to effectively wick moisture from the skin. If you prefer a looser fit for layering heavy clothes underneath, you may consider sizing up.
Can I use this for high-intensity skiing?
Yes, its moisture-wicking grid fleece is specifically engineered for high-activity sports, making it an excellent mid-layer for skiing.
What is bluesign certification?
It means the jacket was produced using sustainable textile processes that minimize the environmental impact throughout the entire supply chain.
Does it have side seams?
No, the garment is specifically constructed without side seams to prevent chafing during physical activity.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Clear any loose fabric or debris from the zipper track and consider applying a graphite pencil lead to the teeth for smoother movement.
Reduced moisture-wicking performance
Wash the garment with a technical outdoor detergent to remove residue from standard laundry soaps or softeners that may be clogging the fabric pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your fleece, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
- Detergents: Avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, as these can strip the moisture-wicking properties of the grid fleece.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible; the material is quick-drying by nature. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting.
- Layering: For best results, layer this jacket over a moisture-wicking base layer and under a waterproof shell during high-output alpine activities.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place and ensure it is clean before long-term storage to prevent odors.
