Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Daybreaker 2.0 Jacket is a lightweight, versatile fleece perfect for active children who need an extra layer of warmth for year-round wear. Crafted from high-quality Polartec recycled polyester, this jacket excels at temperature regulation during outdoor play or as a mid-layer under a shell, though it is not waterproof and should be paired with an outer layer in rainy conditions.

FAQs
Is the Daybreaker 2.0 windproof?
No, this is a fleece jacket designed for insulation and breathability, not wind protection. It is best used as a layer under a windproof or waterproof shell.
Can I tumble dry this jacket?
It is recommended to air dry the jacket to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers and to stop it from shrinking.
Is this suitable for a 3-year-old?
Yes, the sizing provided is designed for children, and the soft fleece material is gentle on sensitive skin.
What does 'raglan sleeves' mean?
Raglan sleeves are constructed in one piece that extends to the collar, omitting a shoulder seam. This provides better mobility for active children.
Is the material itchy?
No, Polartec fleece is specifically engineered to be soft, comfortable, and non-irritating, even when worn over short-sleeved shirts.
Troubleshooting
The zipper is sticking or not moving smoothly.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it remains stiff, gently wipe the teeth with a small amount of paraffin wax or a pencil lead to lubricate them.
Fabric looks 'bobbly' or pilled after washing.
This is normal for fleece. Use a fabric shaver to carefully remove pilled fibers and return the jacket to a smooth appearance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no specific setup; simply choose the appropriate size for your child. It is highly compatible with most waterproof outer shells, fitting easily beneath standard rain jackets. To maintain the integrity of the Polartec fleece, machine wash the garment at 40°C. Avoid using strong detergents or bleach, and air dry whenever possible to preserve the fabric's soft texture and prevent pilling.
