FAQs
Is the Berghaus Vaskye Jacket waterproof?
The jacket is designed for wind resistance and thermal warmth. It is not fully waterproof and is best suited for dry or light-mist conditions.
Can I wear this as a mid-layer?
Yes, its streamlined design and lightweight construction make it an excellent mid-layer to wear under a larger waterproof jacket.
How should I wash this jacket?
Use a gentle machine cycle with a technical wash detergent designed for synthetic insulation. Avoid using standard fabric softeners.
What is Hydroloft insulation?
Hydroloft is a high-performance synthetic insulation that mimics the warmth of down but remains effective even when wet.
Is the hood adjustable?
The Vaskye features an integrated hood designed for a snug fit to keep wind out, though it does not have drawcord adjustments.
How packable is the jacket?
The jacket uses lightweight materials that compress well, making it easy to stow away in a rucksack when not in use.
Troubleshooting
Insulation feels flat or clumped
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with clean dryer balls to restore the loft of the Hydroloft Polyball insulation.
Outer fabric looks stained or dirty
Spot clean with a damp cloth and mild soap. For deeper cleans, follow the machine wash instructions on the garment tag.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Berghaus Vaskye Jacket, always consult the internal care label. Generally, wash the jacket on a gentle cycle with a specialized synthetic-safe detergent to avoid degrading the insulation properties. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the wind-resistant finish. For drying, use a low-heat setting with clean tennis balls or dryer balls to help the Polyball insulation re-loft and distribute evenly. For layering, the jacket is designed with a standard fit, making it compatible under a larger waterproof shell if you are venturing into harsher environments.
