FAQs
Is the Berghaus Berg Prism Polartec waterproof?
No, this garment is made of polyester fleece which is designed for insulation and breathability, not waterproof protection.
Can I wear this in extreme cold?
It serves as an excellent mid-layer in a layering system, but should be paired with a windproof and waterproof outer shell in extreme conditions.
How should I clean this fleece?
Machine wash in cold water with mild detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener.
Does it have pockets?
Please check the specific product variant as designs may vary; generally, these models feature standard outdoor apparel pocket configurations.
Is this product suitable for high-exertion sports?
Yes, its high breathability makes it well-suited for active pursuits like climbing and hiking.
Troubleshooting
Garment feels less insulating over time
Wash the garment to remove trapped dirt and body oils that can compress the fleece fibers.
Pilling on the surface of the fabric
Use a fabric shaver gently to remove pilling, which is common in polyester fleece after extended use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your garment, wash it in cold water with a mild detergent and avoid using fabric softeners, as these can impede the breathability of the Polartec fibers. Air drying is recommended to maintain the fabric's integrity. For compatibility, this garment works best when paired with a base layer that wicks moisture away from the skin, and a protective shell jacket if you are expecting rain or high winds.
