Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Vaskye Jacket is a versatile insulated layer designed for adult men who need reliable warmth for everyday wear and seasonal outdoor transitions. It features advanced synthetic Hydroloft Polyball insulation and wind-blocking Pertex Quantum fabric, providing an excellent balance of heat retention and breathability. While it excels as a mid-layer or standalone piece for chilly days, users should note that it is not a fully waterproof shell and may require an outer layer in heavy rain.

FAQs
Is the Berghaus Vaskye Jacket waterproof?
No, the jacket is wind-resistant and designed for warmth, but it is not waterproof. Use a shell layer for heavy rain.
Can I use this jacket for skiing?
Yes, it works well as a mid-layer under a waterproof ski jacket.
What is the insulation made of?
It uses Hydroloft Polyball, a synthetic material that mimics the performance of down.
How do I choose the right size?
The jacket follows standard sizing. If you plan to wear heavy layers underneath, you may prefer your usual size or one size up depending on your fit preference.
Does it have internal pockets?
The design focuses on a streamlined profile with standard external configuration.
How should I store it for summer?
Store it hanging in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping it compressed in its stuff sack for long periods to preserve the loft of the insulation.
Troubleshooting
Insulation feels lumpy after washing
Tumble dry the jacket on low heat with clean tennis balls to help re-fluff the Polyball insulation.
Jacket feels damp inside
Ensure you are using a moisture-wicking base layer; the jacket is breathable but functions best when sweat is managed close to the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Vaskye Jacket is designed as a standard fit for adult males. For optimal performance, wear it over a base layer to manage moisture directly against the skin. When cleaning, always follow the garment label instructions: machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild, technical-fabric-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners as they can damage the breathability and wind-resistant coatings. Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the synthetic insulation.
