FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, this is a fleece jacket designed for warmth and breathability. It will not repel rain, so it should be paired with a waterproof shell in wet conditions.
What does the age group 'kids' include?
This sizing refers to standard children's sizing ranges typically based on height and age. Please refer to the specific size (e.g., 8) to ensure the best fit.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is recommended to air dry to preserve the integrity of the recycled fleece, though low-heat tumble drying is generally acceptable.
Is the logo embroidery durable?
Yes, the Helly Hansen logo is embroidered for long-lasting quality and will not peel or crack like screen-printed designs.
Does the neck zip up fully?
Yes, the jacket features a chin protector at the top of the zipper to allow for full closure comfortably.
Is the material stretchy?
While fleece is not as stretchy as spandex, the raglan sleeve construction is specifically designed to provide ample stretch and range of motion.
Troubleshooting
The zipper feels stiff or gets stuck
Check for fabric caught in the zipper track or debris. If the zipper is clean and still stiff, apply a light silicone lubricant.
The fleece looks 'pilled' or fuzzy after washing
This is normal for fleece over time. Use a fabric shaver or lint roller to gently remove surface fuzz, and avoid washing with heavy denim or Velcro items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no setup; it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure the longevity of the fleece fabric, please follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a standard cycle with similar colors. Using a gentle detergent helps maintain the softness of the fibers.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to prevent excessive pilling of the fleece material. If using a dryer, select the lowest heat setting.
- Compatibility: The regular fit allows for easy pairing with Helly Hansen base layers. When sizing, consider that it is designed to be worn over light clothing; if you prefer a looser fit for long-term use, you may consider sizing up.
