Fjallraven says:
Light and convenient hooded sweater combining two different polyester fabrics (both new and recycled). One chest pocket and two hand pockets.
Light, convenient hooded sweater that combines two different fleece fabrics to warm where it is needed most and keep weight and packing volume down. The hood, shoulders and chest are made from flat-knitted polyester fleece (partially recycled) with a soft brushed inside, while the sides, lower torso and lower sleeves are in a lighter grid-structured fleece with superior ventilation. Perfect as a fast-drying and moisture-wicking mid layer on day trips or chilly summer evenings. Feminine, well-fitting cut and cosy hood with an opening for a pony tail. One-way zipper in front opening. One chest pocket and two hand pockets, all with zippers.
Our Verdict
The Fjallraven Women's Abisko Trail Fleece is a lightweight, mid-layer for active hikers who need warmth without extra bulk. Weighing just 347g for a UK size 12, it combines two types of polyester fleece to provide warmth where it’s needed most while ensuring breathability and moisture-wicking in areas prone to overheating.
This fleece is built for versatility, with a well-fitted cut and a snug hood that even accommodates a ponytail. The flat-knitted fleece on the hood, chest, and shoulders offers durability and warmth, while the grid-structured fleece on the lower torso and sleeves ensures superior ventilation and packability. Quick-drying made from partially recycled materials, it's an excellent choice for fast-paced day hikes or as a cosy layer on cooler evenings. The addition of a chest pocket and two hand pockets with secure zips provides ample storage for small essentials on the go.
