Quechua Women’s Hiking Thin Fleece Jacket

At the foot of Mont Blanc, our team of hikers designed this lightweight and ultra breathable fleece jacket for seasoned hikers.Do you like to hike actively, unimpeded? You’ll forget you’re wearing this fleece jacket thanks to its high-performance breathability. Perfect for taking with you on all your outings.

Cut

This fleece has a fitted cut, without being too close to the body. We recommend you wear a technical undergarment, in direct contact with the skin, to be better protected from the cold. It has also been designed to be worn just underneath our windproof FH500 HELIUM WIND and waterproof FH500 HELIUM RAIN jackets. The attached hood is perfect for protection against the cold.

Choose your usual size.

HOW IS WARMTH MEASURED?

2 types of tests are carried out to measure the warmth level of our fleeces:
– a material test
– a test on a thermal dummy in a thermal chamber. Here, we reproduce the temperature, wind (5 km/h) and humidity conditions you encounter in the mountains during a 5 km/h walk
These tests are used to validate our design choices, and everything is then validated by field testers.
This fleece has a comfort temperature between 10 and 13°C (without a jacket on top).

HOW IS DURABILITY TESTED?

We test the ageing of our hiking fleeces to guarantee their durability. We guarantee:
– resistance to wear from backpacks and moving arms to delay the appearance of pilling
– the solidity of seams
– the durability of the fleece material after washing
– colour-fastness after washing, against UV rays or in contact with perspiration.
