FAQs

What is Polartec® Classic fleece?

Polartec® Classic fleece is a high-quality fleece fabric known for its excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, breathability, and durability.

Can I wear the vest without a jacket?

Yes, the vest can be worn as an outer layer in milder conditions. However, for rain protection, it is designed to be worn with a compatible Berghaus outer jacket.

How do I care for my Berghaus fleece vest?

Machine wash at 30°C with a non-biological detergent, do not use fabric softener, and avoid tumble drying. Follow the care label instructions.

What is the InterActive zip?

The InterActive zip allows the vest to be zipped into compatible Berghaus outer jackets, creating a combined weather-resistant layer.

Is the vest waterproof?

What size is right for me?

Refer to the Berghaus size guide. Consider measurements and compare to your existing clothing.

How much recycled material is in the vest?

Where can I find a compatible Berghaus outer jacket?

Troubleshooting

The vest feels less warm than expected.

Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers underneath. Consider layering with a windproof or waterproof outer shell for added warmth and protection from the elements.

The zip is difficult to engage or is sticking.

Check for any obstructions such as fabric caught in the zipper. Gently lubricate the zip with a zipper lubricant or a bar of soap.
