I bought this Lite Fleece a week ago. In terms of warmth, it is just as good as the Abisko Trail Fleece. The colour is beautiful, the fit is great, and the fabric feels nice and soft while offering good breathability. However, I am very disappointed with the quality of the fabric. Within just a few days, some threads had already started coming loose. I wasn't too bothered by that at first. But now the fabric is also pilling heavily on the front, even though I have only worn the fleece for two days and haven't washed it yet. I have owned the Abisko Trail Fleece for several years and have used it very intensively, yet it still looks much better. This is not the level of quality I have come to expect from Fjällräven.

Nice fitting jacket and very light weight. Perfect layering piece. Like the zipper pockets and thumb holes.

The lilac color is just a hint of purple. Really much more of a light gray color. I love the fit and weight. It gives a touch of warmth but is very packable

I bought two of these and they are gorgeous: flattering fit, warmth for weight, true to size, active cut, soft, good pockets, wash well. Love the ultramarine and misty green colours, feminine and classy.

Lightweight, breathable, packable. Love the 2-way zipper, the 3 zippered pockets and the thumb-holes.

Finally, a light jacket that has it all — proportions (athletic shoulders > waist and hips), warmth, breathability, and ease of movement. I can layer it easily or just wear on top of a base layer without compromising movement. I am thinking of getting this in more colors now!

Bought this for my wife and she absolutely loves it. Great quality!

I love the color and styling of the jacket. Perfect for cool days. The only negative is that the fabric in the upper arms is pretty tight. It would be tough to layer a heavier long sleeve shirt or sweater under the jacket. Overall a 4.5 stars.

I am a fan of the Abisko fleece Jacket. I now own two. I love how light weight yet warm the jacket is and I love the length of the Jacket at the waist (I am 5'6") and it falls perfectly where I would want it to. I also like the looser fit of this jacket. I own a lot of fitted zip ups but I keep reaching for this one, as it has a great feel when on. Totally recommend. Would love to see a charcoal grey option!

I have this jacket in multiple colours because of how versatile and great it is. It is very lightweight and doesn't feel like anything when it's on but provides a surprising amount of warmth on chilly days. It's nice enough to put over a dress and wear to grab lunch or do some shopping, but it also holds its own on day treks in the forests.

Well made lightweight jacket. I appreciate the zippered pockets, slight tailoring, and breathability. Good quality. I have two of these for a couple years and they hold up wear. Comfy to wear for a walk or running errands. I'm 5' 7", 125 lbs, curvy/pear shaped. I got the medium and it fits well, could probably go for a small if I wanted it more fitted or the arms a bit shorter.

So comfortable and soft to wear. It is warm as well, love the burnt orange color

I have had this for almost two years now and have used it heavily in that time, but it still looks brand new and does not have any signs of wear. It is extremely durable. It is breathable and comfortable and a very flattering fit. I am 172cm and 54kg and ordered a size small which fits perfectly.

A very functional fleece jacket. It's warmer than you might expect from "Abisko Lite" collection. I use it all year around, also in winter months in Alps when trekking. I live the pockets with zip, also the chest pocket. Runs a bit large, I usually wear M, but bought this jacket in S and it's still quite wide (I'm, 175 cm tall, 62 kg). Love the long sleeves, specially on colder days I pull them down and use thumb hole. The only flaw in my opinion: the fabric is not very stretchy, so you cannot pull the sleeves up when it gets warmer (I'm so used doing it when hiking).

I loved it, except……I’m tall and if you added about an inch of length to the overall item, it would have been perfect. The sleeves are plenty long - which is usually a problem for me - but the overall length was too short. Another thing that would be nice is “ princess seams” so it seems more fitted and less boxy. I love the new colors, but until it’s longer overall, I just can’t buy it. Btw, I’m 5’10” and about 185 lbs (sorry, don’t know the kg conversion).
