FAQs
Are these shorts waterproof?
They are water-repellent due to a DWR coating, meaning they handle light rain well, but they are not fully waterproof.
Can I use these for swimming?
While the fabric is quick-drying, they are designed as hiking apparel and not specifically tested for chlorine or salt water exposure.
How do I ensure the right fit?
The elasticated waist and drawcord allow for significant adjustment, so choose based on your standard UK dress size.
Is the material noisy when walking?
No, the fabric is soft and designed for comfort, making them quiet compared to traditional stiff shell shorts.
What is the gear loop for?
The elasticated loop is designed for clipping small items like keys, whistles, or lightweight gear accessories.
Troubleshooting
Water is no longer beading off the fabric.
The DWR coating has likely worn off; wash the garment and re-apply a technical DWR spray treatment.
Waistband feels loose during activity.
Ensure the drawcord is pulled tight and tied securely before starting your activity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Berghaus Wandermoor Wind Shorts, use the internal drawcord to achieve a snug fit before beginning your hike to prevent chafing. These shorts pair well with technical base layer leggings for cooler days or worn alone in warmer weather. For care, wash in cool water on a gentle cycle. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR coating. Air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the stretch fibers. Periodically check if water still beads on the surface; if it begins to soak in, a re-application of a DWR spray treatment may be necessary to restore performance.
