Product Information
Full details
The Berghaus Vaskye NH Jacket is designed for adult men who need a reliable, lightweight thermal layer for outdoor excursions or casual daily use. Its primary benefit is the combination of high-loft warmth and a wind-resistant shell that remains highly packable, though users should note it is water-resistant rather than fully waterproof, making it less suitable for heavy, sustained downpours.

FAQs
Is the Berghaus Vaskye NH waterproof?
It is wind and water-resistant, meaning it can handle light rain, but it is not a fully waterproof rain jacket.
What is Hydroloft Polyball?
It is a synthetic insulation technology designed by Berghaus that mimics the structure of down clusters for warmth and loft.
Can I wear this while exercising?
Yes, the breathable Pertex Quantum fabric makes it suitable for active use, though it is best suited for colder conditions.
How should I wash my jacket?
Wash on a gentle, cool cycle with non-biological detergent and avoid harsh fabric softeners.
Is this jacket suitable for winter?
It is an excellent mid-layer for winter or a great outer layer for crisp, dry autumn and spring days.
Troubleshooting
Jacket losing loft over time
Tumble dry on a very low heat setting with clean tennis balls to help redistribute and fluff the synthetic insulation.
Small snags in the fabric
Avoid contact with sharp branches or rocks; minor snags can be gently tucked back into the weave, but refrain from pulling at loose threads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
The Vaskye NH jacket requires no technical setup; it is ready to wear immediately. To ensure long-term performance, follow these care guidelines:
- Washing: Use a mild, non-biological detergent and wash on a cool, gentle cycle.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying is necessary, use the lowest heat setting to prevent damaging the synthetic insulation fibers.
- Storage: Store the jacket in a cool, dry place. Avoid keeping it compressed in its packable state for extended periods, as this can eventually affect the loft of the Polyball insulation.
- Compatibility: The jacket features a versatile silhouette that fits well under a waterproof shell jacket for extreme weather, or over a base layer for active outdoor sports.
