Product Information

Full details

Crafted with a soft-touch, four-way stretch fabric and a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, this piece excels in various environments; however, users should note that while it offers solid wind protection and light moisture resistance, it is not a fully waterproof hard-shell jacket.

FAQs

Is this jacket waterproof?

It is water-resistant, meaning it handles light rain and showers, but it is not a fully waterproof garment for heavy downpours.

Can I wear this as a base layer?

While it can be worn over a base layer, its features are optimized for use as a functional mid-layer or outer piece.

How should I wash the garment without damaging the fabric?

Use a specialized technical gear wash on a low-temperature cycle and avoid using fabric softeners.

What is the benefit of the grid-mesh lining?

The lining improves airflow, which helps regulate body temperature and wicks away sweat during exertion.

Is the hood adjustable?

The Wavertree Half Zip design focuses on collar and cuff protection; please check the specific product configuration for hood details.

What does 'four-way stretch' mean?

It means the fabric stretches both horizontally and vertically, allowing for maximum flexibility and unhindered movement.

Troubleshooting

Water no longer beads on the outer fabric

The DWR coating has worn off; wash the garment and apply a fresh DWR waterproofing treatment.

Zipper feels stiff or catches

Check the zipper teeth for debris or lint. Use a dry lubricant or a graphite pencil to smooth the movement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Berghaus Wavertree Half Zip, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle using a technical cleaner rather than standard detergents to protect the DWR finish.
  2. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying is necessary, use a low heat setting.
  3. Maintenance: Periodically refresh the water-repellent treatment using a spray-on or wash-in DWR restorative product once you notice water no longer beads up on the fabric surface.
  4. Storage: Hang the garment in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent mildew and ensure the fabric retains its shape.
