Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Daybreaker Half-Zip is a versatile, lightweight fleece designed for active women who need a reliable midlayer for hiking, skiing, or casual outdoor lounging. Its velvety-soft fabric provides essential warmth without adding bulk, making it a staple for layering throughout the seasons. While it offers excellent comfort and protection with a high collar, it is primarily a lightweight garment, so those looking for extreme heavy-duty insulation for arctic conditions may need an additional outer layer.

FAQs
Is this fleece windproof?
No, the Daybreaker is a breathable fleece. It is designed to be worn under a windproof shell in extreme weather conditions.
Can I wear this as a base layer?
It is better suited as a midlayer. For a base layer, we recommend using a technical moisture-wicking garment directly against your skin.
What does bluesign certified mean?
It means the product was manufactured with methods and materials that reduce the impact on people and the environment.
Is the material made from recycled plastic?
Yes, this product is constructed using recycled content as part of Helly Hansen's commitment to sustainable manufacturing.
How should I choose my size?
The Daybreaker fits true to size. If you plan on layering heavily underneath it, you may want to size up, but it is cut to sit comfortably over a standard base layer.
Troubleshooting
Zipper feels slightly stiff or sticks
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently clean the zipper track with a soft brush to remove dust or debris.
Fleece feels less soft after multiple washes
Avoid using fabric softeners, which can coat the fibers and degrade the performance and texture of technical fleece.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This fleece is a standalone garment that requires no assembly. To ensure its longevity, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water to maintain the fleece fibers' integrity.
- Drying: Air dry is recommended to prevent heat damage to the fabric structure. If you must use a dryer, choose the lowest heat setting.
- Compatibility: The slim-to-regular fit is designed to layer easily under standard shells or parkas without creating awkward bunching at the shoulders or arms.
- Storage: Fold the garment to avoid stretching the fabric, which can occur if left on a hanger for extended periods.
