Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Vantashell Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, high-performance softshell for varied outdoor conditions. Its primary benefit lies in its versatile weather protection and adjustable design, making it ideal as both a standalone outer layer and a component of a larger technical layering system. While it offers excellent durability and utility, users should note that as a softshell, it is intended for active use rather than extreme, static mountaineering conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Vantashell is a softshell designed for wind resistance and breathability. It provides protection against light rain, but it is not a fully waterproof hardshell.
Can I wear this in winter?
Yes, it works well as part of a layering system. Pair it with a thermal base layer and an insulating mid-layer for colder conditions.
How should I wash my jacket?
The jacket is machine washable. Use a mild detergent, a cool cycle, and avoid fabric softeners. Always check the internal care label for specific instructions.
Are the cuffs adjustable?
The jacket features bonded and dropped cuffs designed to fit comfortably and provide coverage without the need for additional velcro tabs.
Where is the branding located?
The Berghaus signature branding is located on the chest and the back hem of the jacket.
Troubleshooting
Zip feels stiff or sticks during use
Ensure no fabric is caught in the teeth and gently clean any dirt or grit out of the zip track using a soft brush.
Jacket losing water repellency over time
Over time, the DWR coating may need refreshing. Use a technical DWR spray-on or wash-in treatment designed for polyester softshells after cleaning.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket is designed for simple, intuitive use. To maintain the integrity of the polyester material, ensure the jacket is fully zipped before machine washing. It is recommended to wash on a cool, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can impede the performance of the jacket's outer protective finish.
Regarding compatibility, the jacket is sized for active layering; if you plan to wear a thick down or fleece mid-layer underneath, ensure you have chosen a size that allows for full range of motion. Hang the jacket to air dry away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape and bonded cuffs.
