FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this fleece?
The Berghaus Asterby IA Fleece is designed as a versatile mid-layer to provide insulation and comfort. Its InterActive zip allows it to be combined with compatible shell jackets for enhanced weather protection.
How do I know if my Berghaus jacket is compatible?
Look for the 'InterActive' feature in your shell jacket's description. The fleece has a specific front zip and attachment points at the collar and cuffs that must align with your shell jacket.
Can this fleece be worn on its own?
Yes, it can be worn as a standalone fleece for warmth in dry, cool conditions. However, it does not offer waterproof or windproof protection.
What material is the fleece made from?
The fleece is made from Polyester, utilizing Knitlock fabric for excellent insulation properties.
How should I clean the fleece?
It is machine washable at 40°C with similar colours. Avoid bleach, tumble drying, and dry cleaning. Iron on a low setting if necessary.
Are the pockets waterproof?
The pockets are zippered for secure closure, but the fabric itself is not waterproof. Items stored in the pockets should not be exposed to heavy rain.
What does 'IA' stand for in the product name?
'IA' stands for InterActive, referring to the fleece's compatibility with Berghaus InterActive shell jackets.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to operate
Ensure the fabric around the zipper is not caught. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. A small amount of wax can help with smoothness if needed.
Fleece feels less warm than expected
Check that the InterActive zip is correctly fastened to your shell jacket if used as a system. Ensure the fleece is not damp, as moisture reduces insulation. Consider an additional base layer for colder conditions.
Seams feel bulky or uncomfortable
While designed to be flat, some users may be sensitive. Ensure the garment is the correct size and worn without excessive layering underneath that could cause bunching.
