Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
Using your Berghaus Theran Hybrid Jacket is straightforward. Simply put it on and adjust the hood and cuffs to achieve your desired fit and warmth retention. The adjustable features are designed for quick, on-the-go modifications.
Compatibility
This jacket is highly compatible with a layering system:
- Base Layers: Wear over a moisture-wicking base layer for optimal thermal regulation during active use.
- Outer Shells: For protection against heavy rain or strong winds, it pairs well under a waterproof and windproof outer shell.
- Other Apparel: Suitable for pairing with hiking trousers, walking shorts, and various outdoor footwear.
Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing. Use a mild detergent designed for technical outerwear or a non-bio liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR treatment.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. If tumble drying, add a few clean tennis balls to help fluff the insulation.
- DWR Reapplication: Over time, the DWR treatment may wear off. If water no longer beads on the fabric surface, you can re-treat the jacket with a spray-on or wash-in DWR product specifically designed for outdoor apparel.
- Storage: Store the jacket clean and dry, uncompressed in a closet or drawer. Avoid prolonged compression to maintain the loft of the Hydroloft® insulation.
