Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Roam Interactive Jacket is a versatile outdoor shell designed for adult men who require reliable weather protection during hiking or trekking. Its primary benefit is the Hydroshell waterproof and breathable fabric, which ensures comfort in varied conditions, while the interactive zip system offers modular insulation options. A potential caveat for some users is that it functions as a shell; while it can accommodate a fleece, the jacket itself does not provide significant inherent thermal insulation for extreme cold without an additional layer.

FAQs
Can I use this jacket with any fleece?
The InterActive zip system is specifically designed for Berghaus InterActive-compatible fleeces to ensure a secure, integrated fit.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, but use a gentle cycle with a specialized technical cleaner and avoid fabric softeners.
Does the hood detach?
The hood is fixed but features adjustments to ensure it stays in place during windy conditions.
What is the primary material?
The jacket uses Berghaus Hydroshell, which is a specialized waterproof and breathable fabric.
How many pockets does it have?
The jacket includes three secure pockets for storing essentials.
Is this suitable for winter hiking?
Yes, provided you utilize the InterActive zip system to add a warm, insulating fleece layer underneath.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking through the outer fabric instead of beading off.
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Re-proof the jacket using a recommended DWR spray or wash-in treatment.
Fleece layer feels loose inside the jacket.
Ensure that the internal attachment points at the collar and cuffs are fully secured to the shell.
Feeling damp inside despite the waterproof rating.
Check your base layers. Excessive sweat buildup can occur if you are wearing non-wicking materials underneath a breathable shell.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To use the InterActive feature, simply align the front zip of your compatible Berghaus fleece with the internal zips of the Roam jacket. Always check for internal attachment points at the collar and cuffs to ensure the layers stay aligned during movement. For care, it is essential to wash the jacket using technical garment cleaners that do not strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Avoid using standard fabric softeners, as these can clog the breathable pores of the Hydroshell membrane. After washing, tumble dry on a low setting or air dry, and consider reapplying a waterproofing treatment once you notice water no longer beads on the surface.
