Frequently asked questions about Alpin Loacker hiking gear
Why is Merino base layer worth it for outdoor tours?
Merino wool is temperature-regulating, odor-neutral and skin-friendly. It keeps you warm in winter and pleasantly cool in summer – ideal for multi-day tours where you don't want to change constantly. Especially with intense physical activity, you'll see how effectively the natural material transports moisture to the outside.
Are carbon trekking poles better than aluminum poles?
Carbon is significantly lighter than aluminum and provides less fatigue while hiking, especially on long distances. Aluminum, on the other hand, is usually more robust under lateral stress. Which material is right for you depends on your intended use – for ultralight trekking, carbon poles are often the better choice.
How do I care for my down sleeping bag properly?
Store your down sleeping bag as loosely as possible, for example in a large storage bag, rather than keeping it permanently compressed. Wash it only when necessary with special down detergent and dry it thoroughly so that the loft is preserved and it reliably keeps you warm in the winters to come.
