FAQs

Is this fleece waterproof?

No, the Daybreaker fleece is designed for warmth and breathability, not as a waterproof outer layer.

Can I wear this as my only jacket in winter?

It is best suited for layering. In cold winter conditions, you will need a windproof or waterproof shell over it for protection against the elements.

What is the best way to wash this fleece?

Machine wash on a gentle, warm cycle. Skip the fabric softener to maintain the integrity of the fleece fibers.

Is it true to size?

The Daybreaker line generally follows standard sizing, but if you prefer a looser fit for heavy base layers, consider sizing up.

Is this suitable for high-intensity sports?

Yes, its breathable properties make it excellent for high-intensity activities like cross-country skiing or hiking.

Troubleshooting

Pilling or small balls of fabric appearing

Avoid washing with abrasive fabrics like denim or garments with Velcro. Use a fabric shaver to gently remove existing pills.

Zipper sticking

Ensure no loose threads are caught in the track. You can run a small amount of graphite or a specialist zipper lubricant along the teeth to restore smooth movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight and packable
  • Soft and comfortable texture
  • Highly breathable for active pursuits
  • Easy to layer under heavier jackets

Cons

  • Not windproof
  • Provides no inherent water resistance
  • Lightweight material may show wear faster than heavy-duty options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This garment is designed for a standard fit suitable for most outdoor users. When layering, choose your size based on the thickness of the base layers you intend to wear underneath. To maintain the fleece's soft texture and thermal properties, machine wash in warm water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the fleece fibers and reduce breathability. Always tumble dry on low heat or hang dry to prevent excessive pilling of the material.
