FAQs

Is the Berghaus Vaskye Jacket waterproof?

The jacket features Pertex®Quantum fabric which is highly wind-resistant, but it is not fully waterproof. It will offer some protection against light moisture, but for heavy rain, we recommend wearing a dedicated waterproof shell over it.

What kind of insulation does the jacket use?

It uses advanced synthetic Hydroloft® Polyball insulation. This polyester-based insulation is designed to provide excellent warmth and breathability, and performs well even in damp conditions.

How do I properly wash and dry this jacket?

Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with mild detergent, turning the jacket inside out. Crucially, tumble dry on a low setting, inside out, with 2-3 clean tennis balls. This helps restore the insulation's loft. Ensure it's completely dry before storing.

Can I wear this jacket for intense activities?

Yes, its breathable design helps manage temperature during active use. However, for very high-output activities, you might find it too warm. It's best suited for walking, hiking, and general outdoor use in cold conditions.

How packable is the Berghaus Vaskye Jacket?

The jacket is designed to be conveniently packable, allowing it to be compressed for easy storage in a backpack or luggage, making it a great option for travel or as an emergency layer.

Does this jacket come with a hood?

Yes, the Berghaus Vaskye Jacket includes a hood to provide additional warmth and protection against wind and cold for your head and neck.

What is Pertex®Quantum fabric?

Pertex®Quantum is a lightweight and durable fabric known for its excellent wind resistance and soft feel. It helps to trap warm air and keep cold air out, enhancing the jacket's insulating properties without adding significant weight.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less warm or insulation is clumping after washing.

This often occurs if the jacket was not dried properly. Re-tumble dry the jacket on a low setting, inside out, with 2-3 clean tennis balls. The tennis balls will help break up clumps and restore the insulation's loft, improving warmth.

Jacket doesn't seem to be shedding wind effectively anymore.

Ensure the jacket's zippers are fully closed. If the issue persists, the Pertex®Quantum fabric's wind-resistant properties might be compromised due to dirt or improper washing. Wash the jacket following the care instructions, avoiding fabric softeners, which can coat the fabric.

Unpleasant odor develops in the jacket.

The odor is likely due to moisture trapped within the insulation. Wash the jacket thoroughly according to the care instructions and ensure it is completely dry before storage. You might need to extend the tumble drying time with tennis balls.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent warmth retention in cold weather.
  • Windproof outer fabric for enhanced protection.
  • Breathable design prevents overheating during activity.
  • Synthetic insulation performs well even when damp.
  • Lightweight and packable for easy transport.

Cons

  • Requires specific care instructions (tumble dry with tennis balls).
  • May not offer full waterproofing (primarily wind-resistant).
  • Synthetic insulation might be bulkier than equivalent warmth down jackets.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Berghaus Vaskye Jacket requires no complex setup. Simply unpack it and wear it over your desired base and mid-layers.

Compatibility:

This jacket is designed as a versatile outer layer for cold, dry, and windy conditions, or as an insulating mid-layer under a waterproof shell for wet environments. It pairs well with moisture-wicking base layers and robust outdoor trousers.

Care Instructions:

Proper care will extend the life and performance of your Berghaus Vaskye Jacket. Follow these steps:

  1. Preparation: Before washing, close all zippers and fastenings. Turn the jacket inside out.
  2. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Use a mild detergent. Do not use fabric softener, bleach, or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the insulation and fabric.
  3. Drying: This is a critical step for maintaining the insulation's loft. Low tumble dry, inside out, with clean tennis balls. The tennis balls help to agitate and redistribute the Hydroloft® Polyball insulation, preventing clumping and restoring its loft. This process may take several hours. Ensure the jacket is completely dry before storing.
  4. Storage: Store the jacket unfolded in a dry, cool place to allow the insulation to maintain its loft. Avoid compressing it for long periods when not in use.
