Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Ridge-Hiker Hooded Jacket is a high-performance midlayer designed for active adults who need reliable, lightweight insulation on the trail. Engineered with Polartec Power Grid fabric, it excels at providing an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio while maintaining breathability during intense movement; however, it is primarily a midlayer, meaning it lacks the waterproof shell protection required for heavy downpours on its own.

FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, this jacket is designed as a breathable midlayer and is not waterproof.
Can I wear this under a rain shell?
Yes, its low-profile design and flatlock seams make it an ideal layer to wear under a waterproof shell jacket.
What material is it made of?
It is constructed from technical Polartec Power Grid fleece.
How many pockets does it have?
The jacket features three zipped pockets for secure storage.
Are the cuffs adjustable?
The cuffs are elasticated for a secure, draft-free fit.
Does it provide sun protection?
While the fabric covers the skin, it is primarily designed for thermal regulation and is not rated as sun-protective clothing.
Troubleshooting
Visible piling or surface wear
Piling is common with fleece materials; use a fabric shaver gently to restore the surface appearance.
Loss of breathability
This is often caused by residue from detergents or softeners. Re-wash using a technical fabric cleaner.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent warmth-to-weight ratio
- High breathability for active use
- Low-profile flatlock seams prevent chafing
- Secure zipped pockets

Cons
- Not waterproof or windproof on its own

Setup, Compatibility & Care
This garment is designed for a standard active fit. When sizing, consider that it is intended to sit closely against the body to optimize thermal efficiency.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent.
- Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can clog the grid structure and reduce breathability.
- Hang dry whenever possible; the Polartec material is quick-drying and usually does not require tumble drying.
- Keep away from hook-and-loop fasteners (Velcro) from other gear, which can snag the fleece material.
