FAQs
Is this hooded top suitable for intense hiking?
While durable, the polyester material is better suited for casual to moderate activity rather than high-exertion sports where moisture-wicking is the priority.
How do the thumb holes affect sleeve length?
The thumb holes are integrated into the cuff design, providing a secure grip that typically covers the wrist area completely.
Can I put this in the dryer?
It is not recommended. To preserve the integrity of the polyester fabric and fit, always air dry the garment.
Does the hood stay up in windy conditions?
Yes, the drawcord adjuster allows you to cinch the hood tighter, helping it stay in place during windy weather.
Is the fit true to size?
The Hilde features a relaxed fit. If you prefer a more slim or athletic silhouette, you may want to consider sizing down.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord gets stuck in the hood
Gently pull the drawstring from the inside to realign the toggle and smooth out any internal bunching.
Static buildup in fabric
Avoid synthetic fabric softeners; instead, ensure the garment is not over-dried in low-humidity environments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DLX Hilde Hooded Top, machine wash it on a cool, gentle cycle with similar colors. Avoid using heavy detergents or fabric softeners, as these can affect the performance of the synthetic fibers. Always air dry the garment by laying it flat, avoiding direct heat sources or tumble dryers to prevent shrinking or damage to the fabric structure. The piece is designed to pair perfectly with technical trousers or casual denim depending on the setting.
