Product Information

Full details

The Berghaus Vantashell Jacket is a high-performance, versatile winter softshell designed for active adults who need reliable protection during outdoor pursuits. It excels as a standalone outer layer in mild conditions or as an integrated part of a layering system during harsh winter weather, offering excellent wind resistance and mobility. While it provides robust defense against the elements, potential users should note that as a softshell, it is designed for breathability and comfort rather than being fully waterproof like a hardshell jacket.

FAQs

Is the Berghaus Vantashell Jacket waterproof?

No, it is a softshell jacket designed to be wind-resistant and water-repellent, but it is not seam-sealed or fully waterproof like a dedicated hardshell.

Can I wear this jacket for skiing?

Yes, it functions well for active skiing on dry, cold days when paired with appropriate insulating layers.

Does this jacket come with a hood?

No, this specific model of the Vantashell Jacket does not include an integrated hood.

What is the best way to clean this jacket?

Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with non-biological detergent and air dry.

Is this jacket suitable for summer use?

It is primarily designed for winter and transitional seasons; it may be too warm for high-intensity activities in hot summer weather.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the surface of the fabric.

The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the jacket and re-apply a technical DWR spray or wash-in treatment.

Fabric appears slightly damp inside after heavy exertion.

This is likely moisture vapor accumulation. Ensure you are not over-layering; remove a mid-layer to allow for better ventilation.

Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To get the best performance from your Vantashell, ensure the hem is tightened in high-wind scenarios to maintain body heat. The jacket is designed to layer effectively with standard polyester base and mid-layers.

Care Instructions:

  1. Always follow the garment's internal care label.
  2. Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent.
  3. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the performance of the fabric finish.
  4. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to air dry away from direct sunlight.
  5. Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment periodically if water stops beading on the surface.
