Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Greenbank Hooded Jacket is a versatile, lightweight softshell designed for adult men who need a reliable outer layer for both urban commuting and active hiking in unpredictable weather. It excels at balancing breathability with protection through a moisture-wicking finish and movement-focused construction, though it is intended as a versatile light layer rather than a heavy-duty waterproof shell for extreme alpine conditions.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Greenbank is a softshell designed for moisture-wicking and light weather protection; it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
Can I wear this in the winter?
It is best suited for mild to cool conditions. In deep winter, it should be used as a breathable layer underneath a thicker insulated coat.
How do I determine the right size?
This jacket follows standard adult sizing. If you plan to layer it over thick sweaters, you may prefer a slightly roomier fit.
Does the hood adjust?
Yes, the hood is designed with a bonded peak for structure, providing a stable fit in windy conditions.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
The dual zip hand pockets are spacious enough to securely hold most modern smartphones and everyday carry items.
Can I use fabric softener?
No, do not use fabric softener, as it can block the pores in the fabric and inhibit the moisture-wicking properties.
Troubleshooting
Moisture-wicking seems less effective over time
The fabric may have residue buildup. Wash with a specialized technical gear cleaner to restore breathability.
Hem adjustment cord slips
Ensure the cord locks are free of debris or grit; if they slip, ensure the tension is set before zipping the jacket fully.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Greenbank Hooded Jacket, follow these guidelines:
- Layering: Wear it over a thin technical base layer to maximize the moisture-wicking benefits. It fits easily under heavier waterproof shells if you encounter severe rain.
- Cleaning: Always wash in cool water on a gentle cycle. Use a mild technical cleaner rather than standard heavy-duty detergents, as harsh chemicals can degrade the moisture-wicking finish.
- Drying: Air dry in a shaded area. Avoid using high heat in a tumble dryer, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Storage: Hang the jacket on a sturdy hanger in a cool, dry place to maintain its shape and fabric integrity.
