Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, the Daybreaker is a lightweight fleece intended for breathability and warmth. It should be paired with a windbreaker or shell for protection against heavy wind.
Does the material contain recycled content?
Yes, this product is made with at least 95% recycled fibers and meets the bluesign sustainability standards.
Can I wear this as a base layer?
While it can be worn against the skin, it is primarily designed as a midlayer. For best results, wear a moisture-wicking base layer underneath.
How do I choose the right size?
The Daybreaker fits true to size as a standard midlayer. If you prefer a loose fit for heavy layering, you may consider sizing up.
Is the collar adjustable?
The collar height is fixed, but you can control airflow and comfort using the half-zip zipper.
Is this fleece machine washable?
Yes, it is machine washable on a gentle cycle. Always follow the care label instructions inside the garment.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels stiff or sticky
Clear any loose fabric or lint from the zipper track and apply a light touch of zipper lubricant or graphite if necessary.
Visible pilling on the fleece surface
Use a dedicated fabric shaver or pilling comb gently to remove surface pills without damaging the structural fibers.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this garment is a pullover, ensure your base layer is thin enough to avoid bunching under the fleece. To maintain the integrity of the recycled fleece fabric, machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors and avoid using heavy fabric softeners, which can reduce the moisture-wicking properties. Always air dry when possible to preserve the shape and prevent fiber degradation from high dryer heat.
