Our Verdict

This active half zip base layer is perfect for cold weather activities. The double-sided woven fabric has a 100% merino outer that adds warmth whilst the smoother 100% LIFA® inner helps to wick moisture away from the skin. The half zip sits under fabric guard at the neck line to prevent rubbing when fully closed. The multi-panel design and attractive trademark Helly Hansen chevrons on the sleeves give this a sporty appearance that can be work as an outer piece as well as part of a layering system. This women’s cut is nice and long in the sleeve and torso and is true to size.
