Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen Lifa Active Crew is a high-performance base layer designed for active women who prioritize comfort and moisture management during outdoor pursuits. It features a sophisticated dual-layer construction that wicks sweat away from the skin, making it an excellent choice for hiking, skiing, or cold-weather training. While its lightweight insulation provides great thermal regulation, it is primarily optimized for high-intensity activity rather than sedentary cold-weather environments.

FAQs

Is this base layer suitable for skiing?

Yes, it is excellent for skiing as it provides moisture management during high-output activity and light insulation for colder environments.

Can I put this in the dryer?

It is best to air dry the item to preserve the integrity of the technical fibers and ensure long-term performance.

What does the 2-layer construction do?

It uses Lifa fiber to pull moisture off the skin and technical fibers on the outside to spread it out for faster evaporation.

Does it provide sun protection?

While the fabric provides a barrier, it is primarily designed for moisture management and thermal regulation, not UPF sun protection.

How should I wash it?

Use a gentle cycle with cold water and avoid fabric softeners or bleach to maintain the fabric's wicking properties.

Troubleshooting

The garment feels damp after high-intensity exercise

Ensure your mid-layer is breathable. If your outer layer is non-breathable (like a plastic rain jacket), moisture cannot escape, causing it to trap inside the base layer.

Odor retention after heavy use

Wash the garment immediately after use. Use a specialized sports detergent designed to remove oils from synthetic fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking capabilities
  • Lightweight and non-restrictive fit
  • Effective dual-layer thermal regulation
  • Highly versatile for multi-sport use

Cons

  • Not intended for extreme static cold
  • Specific care instructions required to maintain fiber integrity
  • Slim athletic fit may require sizing up for a looser feel

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the life of your Lifa Active Crew, always follow the garment's internal care label. Due to the technical nature of the fibers, avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the wicking fibers and reduce their effectiveness. Machine wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, and it is recommended to hang dry, as high heat from a tumble dryer may damage the synthetic composition. This base layer is highly compatible with other technical apparel, fitting seamlessly under fleeces, synthetic mid-layers, and waterproof hardshell jackets.
