What waterproofing do Berghaus jackets use?
Berghaus uses two systems: GORE-TEX® (their premium option — fully waterproof, windproof and highly breathable) and Hydroshell® (Berghaus's own membrane, strong waterproofing at a lower price). Both need an active DWR coating to perform — always tumble dry on low heat after washing to reactivate it.
Which Berghaus jacket is best for everyday wear?
The Ewden Jacket is the most versatile everyday option — a lightweight, packable waterproof shell that works for most conditions without extra bulk. For colder days, the Trawden Hybrid adds insulation panels while maintaining stretch and movement. Both layer easily over a standard midlayer or knitwear.
How should I size a Berghaus jacket?
Berghaus jackets are cut to accommodate layering. If you plan to wear only a base layer or thin knit underneath, sizing down one step gives a cleaner fit. If you want to layer a fleece or insulated mid-layer, stay true to size. We're happy to advise in store or online.
Berghaus Ewden or Trawden Hybrid — which jacket to pick?
Ewden is the year-round waterproof shell — breathable, packable, best for rain. Trawden Hybrid is the insulated hybrid jacket — added warmth and stretch panels for colder days. Choose Ewden for everyday rain protection, or the Trawden Hybrid when you need extra warmth.
Are Berghaus jackets available in 3XL?
Yes — many Berghaus jackets at OD's stock through to 3XL across the men's range, including the Ewden, Trawden Hybrid and seasonal hooded styles. Sizing varies by silhouette — call Helen on 01744 730985 to confirm 3XL availability on a specific jacket before ordering.
Are Berghaus jackets waterproof?
Yes — Berghaus shells like the Ewden use Hydroshell or GORE-TEX membranes for full waterproofing with breathability. Fleece jackets are water-resistant but not waterproof — they're built for warmth, not rain. Each product page lists the waterproof rating and seam-sealing detail.
