Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
It is generally recommended to air dry to protect the material and keep the thumb holes and cuffs in top condition.
Are the pockets zippered?
The product features two spacious pockets for storage, but it is advised to check the physical garment as they are designed for standard access.
What is the material composition?
The garment is constructed from high-quality polyester, which is known for its durability and moisture-wicking properties.
Can men wear this top?
This specific model is designed with a female fit and sizing structure.
Troubleshooting
Sleeves riding up during physical activity
Ensure your thumbs are correctly placed through the integrated thumb holes to anchor the cuffs in position.
Garment feels stiff or develops static
Avoid using high heat in the tumble dryer; opt for air drying and use a mild liquid detergent.
Drawcord won't stay tight
Check that the toggle mechanism is free of lint or debris and ensure the cord is pulled evenly from both sides.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your DLX Hilde, proper maintenance is essential. Always consult the care label inside the garment before laundering. Generally, machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with mild detergent. Avoid using harsh bleach or fabric softeners, as these can compromise the performance of the synthetic fibers. Air drying is highly recommended to maintain the shape of the hood and the integrity of the elasticized cuffs. When layering, the Hilde top is compatible with most standard waterproof shells or puffer vests, provided the sizing allows for comfortable movement under the outer layer.
