Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this fleece windproof?

No, the Daybreaker is made of breathable microfleece and does not offer wind protection. It is recommended to wear a shell over it in windy conditions.

Can I wear this as a base layer?

While it can be worn over a thin base layer, it is designed primarily as a mid-layer for insulation.

How should I wash it to keep it soft?

Wash with similar colors in warm water and avoid using fabric softeners to maintain the technical properties of the Polartec fabric.

Does this fleece have pockets?

No, the design is intentionally minimalist and does not feature pockets.

Is the material heavy?

No, the Polartec microfleece used in this product is specifically chosen for being lightweight and low-bulk.

Troubleshooting

Fleece feels less warm than when new

This is often caused by debris or fabric softener buildup; wash with a technical cleaner to restore loft and breathability.

Zipper is sticking or stiff

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track and lightly clean the teeth with a soft brush to remove any trapped dust or grit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This fleece is designed for a standard fit, making it compatible with most standard base layers and shell jackets. To maintain the integrity of the Polartec fabric, follow these care instructions: Machine wash in warm water using a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the fibers and reduce the fleece's moisture-wicking efficiency. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry to prevent material degradation. Always check the garment's internal care label before the first wash to ensure specific manufacturer guidelines are followed.
