Product Information
Full details
The DLX Hilde Hooded Top is a versatile, high-performance layer designed for active women seeking comfort and practical protection in casual settings. Crafted from durable polyester, this top excels as a standalone piece or a mid-layer during outdoor excursions; however, users should note that the polyester material lacks the inherent moisture-wicking properties of specialized technical merino wool.

FAQs
Is the hood detachable?
No, the Hilde Hooded Top features a grown-on hood, meaning it is permanently attached to the garment.
How does the sizing run?
The top has a relaxed fit. If you prefer a more tailored look for layering, you may want to check the specific size chart against your usual measurements.
Can I use this for intense exercise?
While durable, the polyester material is primarily designed for casual wear and light activities rather than high-intensity, sweat-heavy workouts.
Does it have a full-zip front?
No, this design is a pullover style for a clean, cohesive look.
Are the pockets zippered?
The pockets are designed for convenience and ease of access, suited for light items.
Is the material machine washable?

Troubleshooting
Drawcord does not stay tightened
Ensure the toggle is pulled fully against the fabric and the knot at the end of the drawcord is secure.
Fabric snagging
Avoid contact with sharp objects or hook-and-loop fasteners which can pull the polyester threads.
Static buildup
Use a light fabric softener during the rinse cycle or a static guard spray to reduce synthetic friction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your DLX Hilde Hooded Top lasts, follow these guidelines:

- Compatibility: This top works perfectly when layered with standard t-shirts or thin base layers. It fits comfortably under most waterproof shells or light windbreakers.
