Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Vaskye Jacket is an ideal choice for outdoor enthusiasts and urban commuters who need a reliable, insulated layer for cold-weather protection. Featuring advanced synthetic Hydroloft Polyball insulation and wind-resistant Pertex Quantum fabric, this jacket offers a superb balance of warmth, breathability, and packability. While it excels at keeping you cozy during chilly mornings and sunset hikes, users should note that the synthetic insulation, while highly effective, is not as lightweight as premium down alternatives.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
It is wind-resistant and provides some protection against light drizzle, but it is not a waterproof raincoat.
Can I wear this while skiing?
Yes, its low-profile, packable design makes it an excellent mid-layer to wear under a ski shell.
What is the best way to store the Vaskye jacket?
Hang it in a ventilated closet to allow the insulation to remain lofted and prevent moisture buildup.
Does it have internal pockets?
The jacket features a clean, simple design; please refer to the specific garment you received for the exact internal pocket configuration.
How should I wash it?
Use a gentle machine wash cycle with technical cleaner, avoid fabric softeners, and tumble dry low.
Troubleshooting
Insulation feels flat after storage
Tumble dry the jacket on a low setting with dryer balls to redistribute the synthetic fibers and restore loft.
Wind seems to penetrate the fabric
Ensure the front zipper is fully closed and the hem cord is cinched to prevent drafts from entering.
Outer fabric looks dull or water soaks in
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating may need refreshing; apply a technical DWR spray specifically for synthetic technical wear.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because this is a technical insulated jacket, proper maintenance is key to preserving its thermal properties. Always check the internal garment tag for specific wash instructions, but general care includes machine washing on a gentle cycle with a specialized synthetic-safe detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can compromise the breathable, wind-resistant coatings of the Pertex material. For drying, tumble dry on a low heat setting, ideally with dryer balls to help fluff the synthetic insulation and restore the loft of the micro-baffles. Store the jacket hanging in a cool, dry place rather than compressed in a stuff sack to maintain the integrity of the insulation over long periods.
