Product Information
Full details
The Fjallraven Abisko Lite Half Zip Fleece is an ideal choice for active adult males seeking a lightweight, versatile garment for warm-weather outdoor adventures. Crafted from moisture-wicking recycled polyester, it functions excellently as a breathable base layer or a standalone mid-layer that dries quickly when you are on the move. While its regular fit provides comfort and freedom of movement, users should note that as a lightweight piece, it provides minimal insulation in sub-zero or high-wind environments compared to heavier technical jackets.

FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, it is designed for breathability. It will not block strong winds and should be layered with a wind shell if necessary.
Can this be worn as a base layer?
Yes, the fabric is soft against the skin and designed to move moisture, making it an effective base layer.
Does the material shrink in the wash?
When washed and dried according to instructions, the recycled polyester is highly resistant to shrinkage.
Are the thumbholes noticeable when not in use?
No, they are integrated discreetly into the cuffs and remain hidden when your hands are free.
What does 'Regular fit' mean for this product?
It means the garment is cut with a standard silhouette that is not overly tight or baggy, offering a comfortable, everyday fit.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears to be losing moisture-wicking performance
Wash the garment to remove built-up oils or fabric softener residue that may be clogging the synthetic fibers.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Clean any debris or grit from the zipper teeth using a soft brush and ensure the fabric is not caught in the track before pulling.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This fleece is designed to integrate seamlessly into a standard outdoor layering system. Wear it directly against the skin for optimal moisture management or over a synthetic tank top. To maintain the integrity of the recycled polyester, machine wash the garment on a gentle cycle with similar colors using mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking efficiency of the fleece. For drying, air drying is recommended to extend the lifespan of the material and maintain the fit of the cuffs.
