FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
No, the Daybreaker Fleece is designed for breathability. It will not block wind, so it is recommended to wear a windproof shell over it in gusty conditions.
Can I wear this in the rain?
It is not waterproof. If you are expecting rain, wear a dedicated waterproof shell over the jacket.
What does 'bluesign certified' mean?
It means the product was manufactured using sustainable methods and materials that meet strict environmental and safety standards.
Does it have an adjustable hem?
The jacket features a clean, finished hem design to keep bulk low; it does not include a drawcord.
How should I choose my size?
This jacket has a standard, feminine cut. If you plan to wear thick sweaters underneath, you may consider sizing up, but it is generally true-to-size for a performance fit.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels matted or less soft after multiple washes
Avoid fabric softeners. You can occasionally tumble dry on low with wool dryer balls to help fluff the fibers back up.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth. If it remains stiff, gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft toothbrush to remove debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Daybreaker Fleece retains its loft and performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a warm, gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers and reduce breathability.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying, use a low-heat setting to prevent damage to the fleece structure.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed with a low-profile fit, making it highly compatible with standard waterproof shells or insulated parkas. It is best paired with a moisture-wicking synthetic or wool base layer to optimize the thermal management system.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry place to prevent the fabric from flattening over long periods.
