Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Greenbank Hooded Jacket is a versatile, high-performance softshell designed for active adults who need reliable protection during outdoor pursuits. It excels in delivering a balance of breathability and weather resistance while maintaining a full range of motion, though its lightweight design may not provide enough insulation for extreme, sub-zero winter temperatures without additional layering.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
The Greenbank is a softshell jacket designed to be highly breathable and water-resistant. It will handle light showers but is not classified as a fully waterproof shell.
Can I wear this in the middle of winter?
It is best used as an outer shell in a layering system. In deep winter, you should pair it with an insulated mid-layer to retain body heat.
How do I choose the right size?
The jacket follows standard sizing. Use a tape measure to check your chest and sleeve length against a standard size chart to ensure the correct fit.
Does the hood have adjustments?
Yes, it includes a bonded peak, and the jacket is designed for a secure, athletic fit that helps the hood stay in place during active use.
Is the jacket machine washable?
Yes, it can be machine washed on a gentle cycle, but always check the care label on the inside of the garment for specific temperature requirements.
Troubleshooting
Water beading is no longer effective on the surface.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need reactivating. Tumble dry on a low heat setting for 10-15 minutes or apply a DWR spray treatment.
The jacket feels damp inside after light activity.
Ensure you are using a technical base layer rather than cotton, as cotton traps moisture against the skin and prevents the jacket's wicking finish from working.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent moisture management via wicking finish
- Highly flexible fabric construction allows for unrestricted movement
- Streamlined design prevents snagging
- Integrated hood provides reliable weather protection
Cons
- Not intended for extreme cold without mid-layers
- Limited to softshell capabilities, not fully waterproof in heavy rain
- Specific sizing (XS to XXXL) requires careful selection for correct fit
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of the Greenbank Hooded Jacket, keep these maintenance tips in mind:
- Washing: Use a mild, non-biological detergent and wash at low temperatures. Avoid fabric softeners as they can strip the wicking properties.
- Drying: Air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, which can damage the synthetic fibers.
- Compatibility: The jacket is designed as an outer layer but functions best as part of a layering system. It works well over moisture-wicking base layers for high-exertion activities.
- Storage: Hang the jacket in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area to prevent moisture buildup.
