Berghaus Fleece Jacket - Black - XXXL

Polartec Classic Micro fleece is a highly regarded fabric known for its excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. It provides significant insulation without being bulky and is designed for breathability and quick drying.

InterActive technology refers to a system of zips and connection points on compatible Berghaus jackets and fleeces. It allows the fleece to be securely zipped into an outer shell, creating a single, warmer garment.

No, this is a fleece jacket and is not waterproof. It is designed as an insulating mid-layer. For waterproofing, it needs to be paired with a compatible waterproof outer shell.

It can be worn as an outer layer in cool, dry conditions. However, for colder temperatures or wet/windy weather, it is best used as a mid-layer combined with an appropriate outer shell for full protection.

Look for jackets explicitly stating they feature 'InterActive' technology or have a zip-in system compatible with Berghaus fleeces. The product description should mention this feature.

Machine wash on a cool or warm setting with a mild detergent, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners to maintain its performance.

Ensure you are washing the fleece according to care instructions and avoiding fabric softeners. Over time, some natural degradation of fleece insulation can occur with heavy use.

Check for any fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. A small amount of wax or a specialized zipper lubricant can help if it remains stiff.

Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece. It can be minimized by washing inside out and avoiding abrasive contact with other materials. Small pills can often be removed with a fabric shaver.
