Berghaus Stormcloud Waterproof Overtrousers - 34

No, the Berghaus Stormcloud Overtrousers are designed for waterproofing and wind protection and do not contain insulation. They are intended to be worn over your regular clothing.

Refer to the size guide provided by Berghaus. These overtrousers are typically designed to be worn over other trousers, so you may want to consider a size that allows for layering, but ensure it's not excessively baggy.

While they are waterproof, they are designed as overtrousers, meaning they are intended to be worn over other garments. They lack features like a comfortable lining for direct skin contact and may not provide adequate warmth on their own.

The frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions. A good indicator is when water no longer beads up and roll off the fabric. Typically, this might be after several washes or extensive use in wet weather.

Hydroshell is Berghaus's proprietary waterproof and breathable fabric technology, engineered to provide reliable protection from the elements while allowing moisture vapour to escape.

The leg openings feature snap releases for ease of use, but they do not have adjustable drawcords or zips for a custom fit. The fit is a straight leg design.

This could be due to condensation, especially during high exertion. Ensure the leg openings are not fully sealed if possible, or consider if the garment needs re-waterproofing if water is penetrating the fabric.

Utilize the full extent of the snap release leg openings. Ensure the zips (if present) are fully open and the snaps are undone. Wearing slightly looser fitting overtrousers or trousers underneath may also help.

The durable water repellent (DWR) coating may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment suitable for waterproof outerwear following the product instructions.
