FAQs
Is the Daybreaker jacket waterproof?
No, this jacket is made of fleece and is not waterproof. It is intended to be used as a mid-layer under a waterproof shell.
How should I size this jacket?
The jacket follows standard sizing. It is designed to be a comfortable, active fit, so select your normal size unless you prefer a very loose fit for extra layers.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is recommended to air-dry the jacket to maintain its shape and texture. If you must use a dryer, use the lowest heat setting.
Does this jacket have windproof technology?
No, it is highly breathable, which means it will let wind pass through. It is best paired with a wind-resistant layer in breezy conditions.
What is the primary material used?
The jacket is constructed from high-quality, durable synthetic fleece designed for warmth and breathability.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or sticky
Apply a small amount of graphite or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth and operate the slider up and down.
Pilling on the surface of the fleece
Use a fabric shaver or lint remover specifically designed for knitwear to gently remove surface fuzz.
Jacket feels less warm over time
Ensure you are not washing the fleece with heavy detergents or softeners that leave residue; wash it alone or with similar soft items.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your jacket lasts, machine wash it in cold water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers and reduce the breathability of the fleece. For drying, it is best to hang-dry or use a low-heat tumble setting to prevent shrinking or damage to the synthetic fabric. The jacket is fully compatible with any standard waterproof shell or parka, fitting best when chosen in your standard base-layer size to maintain a slim, efficient silhouette.
