Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Men's Pendower Wind Jacket is designed for adult males seeking lightweight weather protection during outdoor activities. Its primary benefit is offering high wind resistance and repelling light rain, making it ideal for cool, crisp days. A potential caveat is its slim fit, which is optimized for layering but may feel restrictive if worn over bulky items. This jacket features a ripstop nylon fabric, articulated patterning for movement, a pre-tensioned hood, and a chest pocket that doubles as a stuff sack.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for heavy rain?
No, the jacket is designed to repel light rain. For heavy downpours, a waterproof jacket is recommended.
What is the wind resistance rating?
The fabric has a wind resistance rating of 1.2 CFM, classifying it as highly wind-resistant.
Can I wear a thick fleece jacket underneath?
The jacket has a slim fit, which is ideal for thinner mid-layers. Wearing a very thick fleece may feel restrictive.
How do I wash the jacket?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners.
Does the chest pocket work as a stuff sack?
Yes, the zipped chest pocket is designed to function as a stuff sack for the jacket, and includes a carry loop.
What kind of activities is this jacket best for?
It is best suited for activities like hiking, trekking, running, and general outdoor use in windy and cool conditions, especially when layering is involved.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels tight when layering
Consider sizing up if you intend to wear very thick mid-layers. This jacket is designed with a slim fit for efficient layering.
Reduced water repellency
Clean the jacket according to care instructions. If repellency does not improve, consider applying a re-waterproofing treatment suitable for nylon technical apparel.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to use
Ensure the fabric is clear of the zipper track. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or beeswax to the zipper teeth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This jacket requires no complex setup; it is ready to wear out of the packaging. Its primary function is outerwear, making it compatible with most base layers and mid-layers for a versatile layering system. For care, it is recommended to machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softeners which can affect the fabric's performance. Always zip up all closures before washing. Tumble dry on a low heat or hang dry away from direct heat sources. For optimal performance and water repellency, periodic re-proofing with a suitable technical fabric re-waterproofer may be beneficial, following the product's instructions.
