FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Daybreaker 2.0 is made of fleece and is not waterproof. It is best used as a mid-layer under a waterproof jacket in wet conditions.
Can this be worn in the winter?
It serves as an excellent layering piece under a thicker insulated coat for winter, but it is typically not warm enough as a standalone jacket in freezing temperatures.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The jacket follows a standard regular fit. Choose the size based on the child's typical clothing size to allow room for a base layer underneath.
Are the materials sustainable?
Yes, the jacket is constructed using recycled materials as part of Helly Hansen's sustainability initiatives.
What is the purpose of the thumb openings?
The thumb openings help keep the sleeves in place during movement and provide a small amount of extra coverage and warmth for the hands.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or hard to pull
Check for fabric stuck in the track and ensure the teeth are clean of lint or debris.
Fleece appears to be losing its softness
Avoid fabric softeners, which leave a waxy residue. Air drying helps maintain the fiber loft better than high-heat tumble drying.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for a regular fit, making it easy to wear over base layers or under larger winter parkas. To maintain the integrity of the Polartec® fleece, wash the garment in cold water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can inhibit the fleece's breathability and moisture-wicking properties. Always zip the jacket fully before laundering to protect the YKK® slider and teeth. It is recommended to air dry the jacket; if using a machine, select a low-heat, delicate setting to prevent the material from losing its loft.
