FAQs
What is the main material of this fleece?
The Helly Hansen Daybreaker 1/2 Zip Fleece is made from soft fleece, with this specific variant utilizing recycled materials as detailed in its composition.
Is this fleece suitable for very cold weather?
It is best used as a mid-layer. While warm on its own for moderate temperatures, it requires an outer layer for significant cold, wind, or precipitation.
How should I clean the fleece to maintain its softness?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid fabric softeners and high heat drying.
Can this fleece be worn by women?
This specific product variant is listed with 'Male' gender attributes. Helly Hansen may offer similar styles designed for women.
What does '1/2 Zip' mean?
'1/2 Zip' refers to a zipper that extends halfway down the front of the garment, allowing for ventilation and ease of wear.
Is the 'Green' color true to the images?
Color representation can vary slightly based on screen settings. However, the 'Green' variant is intended to be a distinct shade of green.
What are the benefits of using recycled materials?
Using recycled materials reduces waste and the need for virgin resources, contributing to a more sustainable manufacturing process.
Troubleshooting
Fleece appears matted or less soft after washing.
Ensure fabric softener was not used. Wash again on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid high heat when drying.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Gently pull the fabric around the zipper to ensure it's not caught. You can try rubbing a graphite pencil along the zipper teeth for lubrication.
Pilling on the surface of the fleece.
Pilling is common with fleece. To minimize, wash inside out on a gentle cycle and avoid abrasive contact. A fabric shaver can be used to carefully remove pills.
Garment loses shape after washing.
Always follow the washing and drying instructions. Avoid overloading the washing machine and lay flat or hang to dry if possible, rather than excessive tumble drying.
