Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Daybreaker Fleece Jacket is designed for adult women who need a versatile, lightweight, and breathable midlayer for outdoor adventures or casual daily wear. Crafted with high-quality Polartec® fleece and featuring a minimalist, low-bulk design, it excels at providing reliable warmth without adding unnecessary weight; however, users should note that as a fleece, it is not windproof and functions best when layered under a protective shell in harsh conditions.
