Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Berg Prism Polartec is a high-performance fleece designed for adult men who require reliable warmth and durability during outdoor pursuits. Its primary benefit is the advanced Polartec construction, which provides exceptional insulation in varied weather conditions while remaining breathable. A key caveat for potential users is that this garment is designed specifically for technical layering and outdoor utility rather than as a standalone heavy-duty waterproof jacket.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Berghaus Berg Prism Polartec is designed for warmth and breathability, not as a waterproof outer layer.
Can I wear this as my only layer in winter?
It is best used as a mid-layer; in extreme winter conditions, you should pair it with a windproof or waterproof outer shell.
How should I wash the garment?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle. Do not use fabric softener or bleach.
Is the sizing true to fit?
The Berghaus Berg Prism Polartec features a standard adult fit; consult the sizing guide for the XL specification to ensure it meets your layering needs.
Does this fleece have a full zipper?
Yes, this model features a high-quality full-zip design for ease of wear and temperature regulation.
Troubleshooting
Fleece feels less warm than when new
Check for matting of the fibers caused by improper washing or heavy wear; brush the fleece gently to restore loft.
Excessive pilling after use
Pilling is a common characteristic of fleece; use a fabric shaver or gentle lint remover to clear the surface fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the integrity of the Polartec fleece, machine wash it in cold water with a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and reduce the fleece's moisture-wicking and breathability capabilities. For best results, hang dry the garment away from direct heat sources. This product is compatible with most standard outdoor shells and should be worn over a base layer for optimal thermal regulation.
