Product Information

Full details

The Berghaus Wavertree Hooded Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and active adults seeking a lightweight yet durable outer layer for variable weather. Its primary benefit is the combination of a four-way stretch fabric and a water-repellent finish, offering superior mobility and protection against light moisture. A key caveat for potential buyers is that while the grid mesh lining enhances breathability, it is designed for active movement rather than extreme sub-zero alpine conditions, making it best suited for transitional seasons and moderate mountain trekking.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It features a water-repellent finish that is suitable for light rain and showers, but it is not fully seam-sealed waterproof gear.

How should I wash the Berghaus Wavertree?

Machine wash in cold water using a mild technical detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

Can I wear this in winter?

It is best used as a layer in a modular system. It lacks heavy insulation, so you may need a fleece or base layer underneath for cold weather.

Does the hood have an adjustment?

The jacket features a practical hooded design, though specific fit adjustments vary; the main torso adjustment is located at the hem.

What is the fit of the XXL size?

This is an adult male XXL, designed to be worn over standard base layers. The fabric has stretch, ensuring a comfortable range of motion.

Troubleshooting

Water is soaking into the fabric rather than beading off

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the garment with a technical cleaner and apply a DWR reactivation spray or wash-in treatment.

The hem cord is stuck or not tightening

Check the cord lock for debris or fabric tangles. Ensure the cord is fed through correctly and clear any grit from the locking mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent freedom of movement due to stretch fabric
  • Lightweight construction for easy packing
  • Effective water resistance for changing weather
  • Breathable inner lining prevents moisture buildup
  • Adjustable hem helps retain heat

Cons

  • Not intended for heavy-duty winter insulation
  • Size XXL fit may run large depending on layering preferences
  • Limited to light water protection rather than heavy downpours

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maintain the integrity of the water-repellent finish, wash the jacket on a cool cycle using a technical detergent designed for synthetic gear. Avoid fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating. For the best fit, utilize the bungee and lock cord at the hem to cinch the jacket against your waist; this is particularly effective when wearing a backpack, as it prevents the hem from riding up. When storing, ensure the jacket is completely dry to prevent odors from the interior lining. If you notice water no longer beads up on the surface, consider using a re-proofing spray to restore the water-repellent properties.
