FAQs

Are these overtrousers insulated?

No, the Berghaus Stormcloud overtrousers are uninsulated, designed primarily for waterproof protection. They can be layered over other clothing for warmth.

Can I wear these for general outdoor activities, not just hiking?

Yes, their waterproof and breathable features make them suitable for a wide range of outdoor activities, including camping, walking, cycling, and travel.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the Berghaus sizing guide for overtrousers. Typically, you would consider wearing them over your regular trousers, so some room may be needed. The product information indicates this specific item is a UK size 14.

How do I maintain the waterproofness?

Regular washing with appropriate detergent and periodic re-application of a DWR treatment will help maintain the waterproof and breathable performance.

What is Hydroshell technology?

Hydroshell is Berghaus's own waterproof and breathable fabric technology, designed to keep you dry and comfortable in challenging weather conditions.

Are these overtrousers noisy when walking?

The noise level can vary depending on the fabric's texture and thickness. While designed for performance, some minimal rustling may occur during movement.

Troubleshooting

Water not beading on the surface anymore

The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment may have worn off. Wash the overtrousers according to care instructions and then re-apply a suitable waterproofing spray or wash-in treatment.

Overtrousers feel clammy inside

Ensure the breathability isn't compromised by dirt or residue. Clean the overtrousers. Also, be aware that under heavy exertion in very humid conditions, some internal condensation can still occur.

Leg snaps are difficult to close/open

Ensure the fabric around the snaps is flat and not bunched up. If they feel stiff, they may need a small amount of lubrication, or ensure they are fully aligned before pressing.
