FAQs
Is the Daybreaker jacket windproof?
No, it is designed for breathability. You should pair it with a windproof shell if you are in windy conditions.
Does this jacket have an adjustable hood?
The standard Daybreaker Block design focuses on a protective collar rather than a hood to reduce bulk under other layers.
What is the best way to clean the fleece?
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle, and avoid heavy detergents or fabric softeners.
Can this be worn as an outer layer?
Yes, it functions well as an outer layer in mild, dry conditions, but it is optimized as a mid-layer.
Are the zippers YKK?
Yes, the chest pocket features reliable YKK hardware.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is sticking or not sliding smoothly
Check for debris or stray threads in the zipper track. Use a graphite pencil lead to lubricate the zipper teeth if it remains stiff.
Fabric appears to have small pulls or pilling
Pilling is common with fleece over time. Use a fabric shaver or a small de-pilling tool to safely remove surface lint without damaging the garment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
As a technical mid-layer, the jacket is designed to work in conjunction with a moisture-wicking base layer and an outer weather-protective shell. To maintain the fleece's integrity and softness: 1. Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. 2. Use a mild detergent and avoid bleach or fabric softeners. 3. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to preserve the loft of the fleece. Always close all zippers before washing to prevent snagging on other items.
