The Helly Hansen Crew Insulator 2.0 men's insulated sleeveless vest is a lightweight garment featuring a classic design that will last season after season. It is made of a wind-resistant fabric and features a water-repellent treatment for a superior protection. This vest can be worn as a mid layer in a layering system providing comfort and warmth enabling you to regulate your body temperature by wicking moisture away during your outdoor activities. This onion layering system is made of three types of clothing. The first layer, worn next-to-skin will provide warmth and quickly move moisture away from your skin. Then, the second layer, is the insulation or fleece, that provides warmth while also dissipating heat during periods of high output. And finally, the third layer, the shell, which is the most weather-protective layer, worn on the outside of all other layers.
