Berghaus Omeara Long Shell - Peak, 8

The double cuff design features an internal elasticated cuff that helps to seal out rain and wind more effectively, providing superior protection compared to a standard single cuff.

The longer length offers extended coverage, protecting more of your body from wind, rain, and cold, making it ideal for adverse weather conditions and activities where you might be seated.

While designed for protection, the two-way front zip allows for ventilation. However, it is primarily suited for cooler or wet weather conditions. For very warm weather, lighter, more breathable options might be preferable.

The frequency depends on usage and environmental exposure. A good rule of thumb is to re-waterproof when you notice water is no longer beading on the surface after cleaning and drying, typically once or twice a year with regular use.

Yes, the combination of the longer length, double cuff design, and water-repellent finish provides good protection in moderate to heavy rain. Ensure the DWR is maintained for optimal performance.

In this context, 'Peak' likely refers to the color or a specific product line within Berghaus, indicating it's a variant of the Omeara Long Shell in a shade called 'Peak'.

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Try tumble drying on a low heat setting or ironing (no steam) as per care instructions. If this doesn't help, use a technical re-proofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Clean the zip teeth with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a small amount of wax (like a candle or lip balm) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zip teeth and gently work the zip up and down.

This is designed to be snug for weather protection. If it feels overly tight or has stretched, check for damage. Minor stretching may resolve with careful washing and drying as per care instructions.
