FAQs
Is this vest suitable for high-intensity exercise?
Yes, the moisture-wicking fabric and four-way stretch are specifically designed for high-movement, high-heat outdoor and gym activities.
What is the primary material used?
The vest is made from a high-performance polyester blend.
How does the anti-bacterial technology work?
The fabric is treated with HeiQ Fresh, an anti-bacterial finish that prevents odor-causing bacteria from growing on the fabric surface.
Does the stitching cause chafing?
No, the garment utilizes smooth merrow stitching specifically to minimize friction and prevent chafing during active movement.
Can I put this in the tumble dryer?
Air drying is recommended to preserve the performance finish and fabric elasticity; avoid high heat in the dryer.
Is the fit true to size?
Yes, the Berghaus Bowburn Tech Vest follows standard sizing, with specific adjustments like stretch-bound arm holes to ensure a consistent fit.
Troubleshooting
Fabric developing odor after extended use
Ensure you are not using fabric softeners in the wash, as these block the HeiQ Fresh anti-bacterial properties.
Static cling during dry weather
Wash the garment with a specialized anti-static laundry product or use a static-reduction spray lightly if the effect persists.
Pros and Cons

- Enhanced odor control with HeiQ Fresh technology

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the moisture-wicking and anti-bacterial properties, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and inhibit the moisture-wicking capability.
- Drying: Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the synthetic fibers and the anti-static finish.
- Compatibility: This vest is designed as an ideal base or mid-layer. It fits well under shell jackets for inclement weather or over base-layer tops for added core warmth. The anatomical cut around the shoulders makes it highly compatible with backpack straps, as the self-fabric facing reduces pressure points.
