Full details
The Helly Hansen Daybreaker Jacket is a versatile, lightweight fleece designed for active women who need a reliable midlayer for outdoor adventures or casual everyday use. Featuring high-quality Polartec® fabric made from 100% recycled materials, it provides excellent breathability and warmth without unnecessary bulk. While it is an exceptional layering piece, users should note that as a fleece, it is not windproof and will require an outer shell during harsh, windy, or wet conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, this is a fleece jacket designed for warmth and breathability; it is not waterproof or water-resistant.
Can I wear this as a standalone jacket?
Yes, it is suitable for casual wear or mild weather, but it will not protect you from strong wind.
How should I store this fleece?
It is best stored by hanging it in a cool, dry closet, though it can be folded for travel.
What does bluesign® certified mean?
It means the textile production process meets strict environmental and safety standards by removing harmful substances.
Does it have an internal pocket?
No, the storage is limited to the two zippered side pockets.
Is the material stretchy?

Troubleshooting
Zipper is catching or not sliding smoothly
Check the track for stray threads or fabric. If the zip remains stuck, you can apply a tiny amount of dry graphite or zipper lubricant to the teeth.
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
This is often caused by detergent buildup. Run an extra rinse cycle or use a specialized performance gear wash to remove residues.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of your fleece, machine wash on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers and reduce the moisture-wicking and breathability properties of the Polartec® material. For best results, hang dry the garment to prevent potential shrinkage or texture damage caused by high-heat dryers. Regarding compatibility, the Daybreaker is designed to work as a primary midlayer; pair it with any standard windproof or waterproof outer shell to complete a high-performance layering system.
