Product Information

Full details

The Berghaus Kielder GORE-TEX InterActive Jacket is designed for adult adventurers who demand reliable, all-weather performance during hiking and outdoor exploration. Its primary strength lies in the 2L GORE-TEX ePE membrane, which offers robust waterproofing and breathability in a durable, lightweight package; however, users should note that as a shell layer, it requires compatible midlayers to provide significant insulation in extreme cold.

FAQs

Can I wear this jacket in heavy snow?

Yes, the GORE-TEX ePE membrane is fully waterproof and windproof, making it an excellent choice for snowy conditions.

How do I know if my midlayer is 'InterActive' compatible?

Compatible Berghaus midlayers will feature matching internal zip tracks designed to integrate with the Kielder jacket's internal zip.

Is the hood removable?

No, the Kielder features a fixed, adjustable hood to ensure maximum weather protection and durability.

What does 70D face fabric mean?

70D refers to the denier of the fabric, which is a measure of the thickness and weight of the yarn. 70D is a robust, durable weight ideal for hiking and general outdoor use.

How should I wash this garment?

Use a specialized technical gear cleaner. Avoid detergents with fabric softeners or bleach, and dry on low heat to restore the DWR.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less waterproof over time

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may need reactivation. Clean the jacket and tumble dry on low heat to refresh the finish.

InterActive midlayer zipper is sticking

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper teeth and gently clear any debris from the zipper track.

Breathability seems reduced

Wash the jacket to remove salt, sweat, and dirt buildup that can block the microscopic pores of the GORE-TEX membrane.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and windproof protection with GORE-TEX technology
  • Highly versatile InterActive zip system for layering
  • Durable 70D face fabric built for long-term wear
  • Articulated design promotes natural movement
  • Breathable material keeps you comfortable during high-exertion activities

Cons

  • Shell-only construction provides minimal natural insulation
  • Regular fit may feel loose if not used with a midlayer
  • Requires proper care to maintain the GORE-TEX membrane efficiency

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To maximize the life of your GORE-TEX jacket, ensure you align the InterActive zippers carefully when adding a midlayer to avoid fabric snagging. For cleaning, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent specifically designed for waterproof membranes. Avoid using standard fabric softeners, as these can clog the pores of the GORE-TEX membrane and degrade breathability. Once clean, tumble dry on a low setting or air dry, then re-activate the Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Always store the jacket in a cool, dry place and hang it up rather than folding it tightly for extended periods.
