Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Aconcagua Hooded Jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging. For compatibility, its design allows it to be worn comfortably over base layers or thin fleece sweaters. When it comes to care, it is essential to follow the specific garment tag instructions. Generally, you should machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild detergent specifically designed for technical outerwear. To maintain the insulation's loft, tumble dry on low heat with a few clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help fluff the baffles. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can compromise the performance of the synthetic fill and the outer fabric's integrity.
