Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Theralite Down Jacket is an ideal choice for active adults seeking a high-performance, lightweight layer for cold-weather adventures. Combining 800-fill Hydrodown with synthetic insulation, this jacket provides exceptional warmth-to-weight efficiency and body-mapped heat retention. While it offers superior comfort and mobility, users should note that as a down-insulated garment, it requires careful handling and specialized washing to maintain its thermal properties over time.

FAQs
Is the jacket fully waterproof?
No, while it features water-resistant insulation, the Pertex Quantum shell is designed for lightness and wind protection, not as a waterproof rain jacket.
How should I store the jacket?
Store it hanging in a cool, dry place or folded loosely in a breathable garment bag. Avoid keeping it in the stuff sack long-term.
Can I wear this while it is snowing?
Yes, the Hydrodown treatment is designed to handle damp conditions, though a hardshell over the top is recommended for heavy, wet precipitation.
What is the centre back length for the XL size?
The jacket features a standard centre back length of approximately 76cm.
Where are the pockets located?
The jacket features two external zipped hand pockets and one internal zipped chest pocket for secure storage.
Troubleshooting
Down leaking through the fabric
Small amounts of down poking through seams is normal; pull the feather back into the garment from the inside rather than pulling it out.
Jacket feels flat or loses loft
Tumble dry on low with dryer balls for 30 minutes to restore loft and help the down clusters regain their volume.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Water-resistant Hydrodown technology
- Highly packable for easy storage

- Not intended as a primary waterproof rain jacket
- Down insulation can lose loft if compressed for extended periods
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your jacket performing at its peak, use the included stuff sack only for transport—do not store it compressed at home. Ensure the hem drawcord is adjusted snugly when exposed to wind to improve thermal efficiency. For cleaning, use a dedicated down-specific wash cycle in a front-loading machine. Always tumble dry on a low heat setting with tennis balls or dryer balls to redistribute the down clusters and restore loft. Avoid using standard detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the Hydrodown of its water-resistant treatment.
