Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Rain-Motion Jacket is a high-performance shell designed for active adults who need reliable protection during strenuous outdoor activities in unpredictable weather. Utilizing 3L Pertex Shield fabric, this jacket offers an ideal combination of waterproof integrity, breathability, and durability while maintaining an active fit. While its technical construction provides exceptional movement, users should note that as a 3L shell, it functions best as an outer layer and does not provide significant inherent insulation.

FAQs
Is this jacket windproof?
Yes, the 3L Pertex Shield construction is inherently windproof, providing excellent protection against mountain gusts.
Can I wear this in the winter?
Yes, but you will need to wear insulating layers underneath as the jacket is a shell and provides no warmth itself.
How do I pack the jacket?
Simply turn the internal zipped pocket inside out and fold the jacket into it until the entire piece is contained.
Does the hood fit over a helmet?
The cap-style hood is designed for an active fit; while it offers great coverage, it is optimized for high-visibility with or without a climbing helmet.
What does 3L mean?
3L stands for '3-layer,' meaning the waterproof membrane is bonded between an outer face fabric and an inner lining for maximum durability.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking through the outer fabric
The DWR finish has likely worn off; wash the jacket and tumble dry it on low heat to reactivate, or apply a fresh DWR spray.
Feeling damp inside during activity
Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking base layers; the jacket is breathable, but it relies on proper layering to move sweat away from the body.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent balance of breathability and waterproofing
- Highly packable design using its own internal pocket
- Enhanced range of motion via articulated tailoring
- Includes eco-friendly PFC-free DWR coating
Cons

- Requires layering for colder climates
- Technical fit may feel snug for some users
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Berghaus jacket, store it in a cool, dry place when not in use. Avoid keeping it compressed in the stuff sack for extended periods, as this can affect the fabric's loft and integrity over time.
Care Instructions:
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle using a technical fabric cleaner.
- Do not use fabric softeners or heavy detergents, as these can strip the DWR coating.
- Tumble dry on a low setting or air dry to reactivate the DWR finish, which is heat-sensitive.
- Re-apply a spray-on DWR treatment if you notice water no longer beads on the outer surface.
