Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Nula Hybrid Jacket is an ideal choice for female outdoor enthusiasts seeking a versatile layer for high-intensity activities like mountain climbing or hiking. It features a strategic hybrid design that combines core-focused Hydroloft Polyball synthetic insulation for warmth with breathable, flexible knitted fleece sleeves and side panels for unrestricted movement. While it offers excellent thermal regulation and is highly packable for changing conditions, users should note that its water-resistant properties are best suited for light showers rather than heavy, sustained rain.

FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
While the insulated core panels offer significant protection against wind chill, the fleece arms and side panels are designed more for breathability and may allow some air permeability.
Can I wear this in heavy rain?
The Nula Hybrid is water-resistant, not waterproof. It is best to wear a dedicated waterproof shell over it if you expect heavy rain.
How should I store the jacket to keep it packable?
When not in use, you can fold or roll the jacket tightly. Long-term storage should be in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Is the insulation sensitive to moisture?
No, the Hydroloft Polyball insulation is synthetic, meaning it maintains its thermal properties even when damp, unlike traditional down.
Does the sizing run true to fit?
The jacket is designed for an active fit to accommodate movement during climbs; if you plan on wearing heavy base layers underneath, you may prefer a size up.
Troubleshooting
Water beading is no longer occurring during light rain
The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the garment and re-apply a technical DWR spray to restore water resistance.
Visible pilling on the fleece sections
Use a fabric shaver or a dedicated pilling comb to gently remove surface fiber balls without damaging the knit structure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no specific setup; simply wear it as your primary insulation layer. It is highly compatible with other Berghaus technical gear and can be easily layered under waterproof shells. To maintain the jacket, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent—avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-resistant coating from the fibers. Always air dry the jacket to preserve the integrity of the synthetic insulation and the knitted fleece panels. If the water repellency diminishes over time, consider using a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray treatment.
