Product Information
Full details
This Berghaus Cornice 2.0 jacket in XXXL Blue is designed for adult males seeking reliable protection from cold and wet weather during outdoor activities. Its key benefit is staying dry and comfortable thanks to a durable 2L GORE-TEX ePE fabric. A potential caveat is that it's a functional outdoor jacket, not a fashion piece. Key features include waterproof and breathable fabric, a roll-away adjustable hood, multiple adjustment points for a secure fit, and an InterActive zip for layering.

FAQs
What does 'InterActive' mean on this jacket?
The 'InterActive' zip feature means this jacket has a specific zip system allowing you to zip compatible Berghaus midlayer fleeces directly into it, creating a warmer, single garment.
How do I clean my GORE-TEX jacket?
Machine wash on a cold setting (30°C) with a mild liquid detergent, rinse thoroughly, and tumble dry on a low heat. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.
Is the GORE-TEX ePE fabric environmentally friendly?
Yes, the 2L GORE-TEX ePE fabric is PFAS-free, contributing to a reduced carbon footprint compared to some traditional waterproof materials.
Can I wear this jacket in mild weather?
Yes, but for milder temperatures, you might only need to wear a t-shirt underneath. The jacket's breathability helps manage heat, but for very warm conditions, a lighter shell might be more comfortable.
How do I adjust the hood for better protection?
The hood is fully adjustable. Use the drawcords to tighten it around your face and neck for maximum protection against wind and rain. The fleece lining at the collar adds comfort around your chin.
What is the benefit of the double storm flap?
The double storm flap covers the main front zip, providing an extra barrier against wind and water ingress, enhancing the jacket's overall weather protection.
How often should I re-waterproof my jacket?
Re-waterproofing is recommended when you notice water no longer beads up and rolls off the fabric surface, typically after several washes or extensive use. Reactivating the DWR via tumble drying is the first step.
Troubleshooting
Jacket is no longer waterproof.
Clean the jacket thoroughly with a technical wash and reactivate the DWR finish by tumble drying on a low heat. If performance is still reduced, reapply a DWR treatment.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.
Ensure the fabric is clear of the zip track. Apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or specialized zip lubricant) to the teeth of the zipper. Avoid excessive force.
Water seems to be leaking through.
Check that all seams and zips are fully closed. Inspect for any damage to the fabric or taped seams. If the DWR has failed, re-apply a DWR treatment.
Inner fleece won't zip in.
Confirm that both the jacket and the midlayer fleece are Berghaus InterActive compatible models. Ensure the zips are correctly aligned before attempting to zip them together.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions
Setup: The jacket is ready to wear out of the bag. Ensure all zips are fully closed before your first use. Adjust the hood, waist, and cuffs for a comfortable and secure fit.
Compatibility: The InterActive front zip is designed to connect with Berghaus InterActive midlayer jackets. Check the compatibility of your midlayer before purchase.
Care:
- Cleaning: Machine wash on a cold setting (30°C) with a mild detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner or bleach.
- Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly to remove all detergent.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting. Once dry, iron on a low heat setting with a full wash load to reactivate the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish.
- Re-proofing: Periodically re-apply a DWR treatment (such as Nikwax or Grangers) to maintain water repellency, especially if water no longer beads on the surface.
