FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, the Daybreaker is a lightweight fleece and is breathable; it should be worn under a windproof or waterproof shell in harsh weather.
Can I wear this as a standalone jacket?
Yes, it functions well as a light outer layer on cool, dry days, though it is primarily designed as a midlayer.
Does it have pockets?
The standard Daybreaker Half-Zip design does not include hand or chest pockets, keeping the silhouette clean and lightweight.
Is the material recycled?
Yes, this product is constructed with recycled content as part of the Helly Hansen sustainability initiative.
How should I wash it?
Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle with similar colors. Air drying is highly recommended to preserve the fabric quality.
What is the benefit of the high collar?
The high collar provides additional insulation for your neck and keeps cold air out, especially when paired with the zip-up design.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Avoid fabric softeners and ensure you are using a gentle detergent; air drying can also help restore the loft of the fibers.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Ensure no fabric is trapped in the track; clean the YKK zipper teeth with a soft brush to remove any accumulated debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the lifespan of your fleece, machine wash it in cold water with similar colors and use a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the technical properties of the fleece fibers. Hang drying is recommended to maintain the soft texture and prevent shrinkage. Because of its slim-fit design, it pairs best with a technical base layer underneath and a weather-resistant shell jacket on top during wet or windy conditions.
