Product Information

Full details

The Helly Hansen Daybreaker Fleece Jacket is designed for active women who need a versatile, lightweight midlayer for outdoor adventures or casual daily wear. Its standout benefit is the soft, high-quality Polartec fleece that provides excellent warmth without adding unnecessary bulk. One important caveat is that while it is an exceptional insulator, it is not windproof, so users may need an additional shell layer in extreme weather conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your jacket maintains its warmth and softness, machine wash it on a cold, gentle cycle with like colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers of the fleece and degrade its breathability. For drying, it is best to tumble dry on a low setting or hang-dry to preserve the material's integrity. The jacket is designed to be fully compatible with standard outdoor layering systems; for best results, pair it with a synthetic base layer to maximize moisture management.
