Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen Rig Fleece Half-Zip Jacket is designed for active women who need a versatile, lightweight outer layer for transitional weather. Featuring a soft, dual-sided brushed fleece construction, it offers excellent comfort for city wear or light outdoor adventures; however, users should note that as a lightweight fleece, it is best suited as a mid-layer for colder conditions rather than a standalone heavy-duty jacket.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

No, the Rig Fleece is made of synthetic fleece and does not feature a waterproof membrane or DWR coating.

Can I wear this as a winter jacket?

It is intended as a lightweight layer. In deep winter, it works best as a mid-layer beneath a windproof or waterproof shell.

How should I choose the right size?

The jacket follows a regular fit. You can generally select your standard size, but size up if you prefer to wear thicker sweaters underneath.

What is the benefit of flatlock seams?

Flatlock seams lay flush against the fabric, which significantly reduces bulk and prevents the chafing often caused by standard seams.

Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

The snap-button hand pockets are sized for small essentials like keys or a wallet; most standard smartphones will fit, though the snap closure is designed primarily for security.

Does the fleece pill over time?

As with most high-quality synthetic fleeces, pilling can occur with heavy friction. Following the recommended wash instructions will help minimize this.

Troubleshooting

Zipper feels stiff or catches

Ensure no fabric is trapped in the YKK track. If stiffness persists, use a small amount of graphite or specialized zipper lubricant.

Fleece feels matted after washing

Avoid high heat in the dryer. Hang dry the garment and gently brush the fleece with a soft-bristle garment brush once dry to restore the loft.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

The Helly Hansen Rig Fleece does not require any special setup—simply unzip, pull on, and adjust the fit using the half-zip. It is highly compatible with regular-fit rain shells or windbreakers. To maintain the integrity of the fleece: wash on a gentle cycle in cold water using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking and thermal performance. Always air dry to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fabric.
