Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Whinfell Jacket is a versatile softshell designed for adult females seeking a lightweight, comfortable, and packable outer layer for outdoor activities. Its key benefit is its ability to pack into its own rear pocket, making it ideal for variable weather conditions without adding bulk. A potential caveat is its primary design for spring/summer months, offering water resistance rather than full waterproofing.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Berghaus Whinfell Jacket is water-resistant due to its Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish, making it suitable for light rain and splashes, but not for heavy downpours.
How do I pack the jacket into its pocket?
Locate the central rear pouch pocket. Turn the jacket inside out and stuff it into this pocket. Once mostly packed, you can then turn the pocket itself right-side out around the packed jacket.
What kind of weather is this jacket best suited for?
This jacket is ideal for mild to cool spring and summer conditions, particularly for activities where packability and freedom of movement are key. It offers protection against light wind and showers.
Can I wear a thick fleece under this jacket?
The jacket has a relaxed fit, which allows for some layering. However, it is designed to be lightweight, so pairing it with a very bulky mid-layer might be restrictive. A lighter fleece or base layer would be more comfortable.
How do I clean the jacket?
You can machine wash it on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. Ensure all zippers are closed. Avoid using fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
What is the material of the jacket?
The jacket is made from lightweight, durable polyester fabric with four-way stretch.
Does the hood offer adjustable fit?
Yes, the fixed hood features a single-point adjustment allowing you to tighten it for a more secure fit against the wind and elements.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or sticking
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a specific zipper lubricant to the teeth and try again.
Water repellency seems reduced
The DWR finish may need refreshing. Clean the jacket according to care instructions and then apply a DWR re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.
Fabric feels clingy
Ensure the garment is fully dry. The fabric is designed to be lightweight and non-clingy; proper drying should resolve this.
