Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Rain-Motion Jacket is designed for active adults who need a reliable, high-performance outer layer for hiking and outdoor exploration. Its standout benefit is the 3-layer Pertex Shield fabric, which provides robust waterproof protection while maintaining excellent breathability for intense movement; however, users should note that the slim-fit design may feel restrictive if worn over multiple heavy insulating layers.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for winter mountaineering?
It is designed primarily for active, high-intensity use. While waterproof, it is a shell layer and does not provide thermal insulation, so it should be paired with appropriate mid-layers.
How do I pack the jacket?
The jacket can be tucked into its own internal pocket, which serves as a stuff-sack for easy storage in a backpack.
Can I wear a helmet under the hood?
The cap-style hood is designed for an adaptive fit on the head; it is not specifically helmet-compatible, though it may fit over low-profile climbing helmets.
How does the fit compare to standard jackets?
It features an active, slim fit. If you prefer a loose fit for layering bulky sweaters, you might consider sizing up.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are zippered, but they are designed to be water-resistant. We recommend storing sensitive electronics in an additional dry bag inside the pocket.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR coating has worn off. Wash the jacket and reapply a DWR spray treatment to restore water repellency.
Feeling damp inside the jacket
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking base layers. If you are wearing cotton or non-breathable mid-layers, sweat will accumulate inside despite the jacket's breathability.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure the jacket is properly layered over moisture-wicking base layers to assist with breathability. To maintain the jacket's waterproof capabilities, wash using a technical gear cleaner that does not contain detergents or fabric softeners. After washing, tumble dry on a low heat setting if recommended by the care label to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. If the outer fabric begins to 'wet out' (soak up water rather than shedding it), apply a spray-on waterproofing treatment specifically formulated for technical shells.
