FAQs
Is this jacket waterproof?
No, the Berghaus Theran Hybrid Jacket features a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating, which means it will repel light rain and moisture, but it is not fully waterproof. For heavy rain, you'll need an additional waterproof outer shell.
What is Hydroloft® insulation?
Hydroloft® is Berghaus's synthetic insulation technology. It's designed to provide excellent warmth-to-weight ratio, retain warmth even when wet, and offer good breathability, making it suitable for active use.
Can I use this jacket in winter?
Yes, but its suitability depends on the specific winter conditions and your activity level. For very cold temperatures or heavy snow, it's best used as a mid-layer under a protective waterproof and insulated shell. For milder winter days, it can be an effective outer layer.
How do I clean my Theran Hybrid Jacket?
Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with a mild, technical detergent. Close all zippers. Do not use fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Refer to the care label inside the jacket for specific instructions.
Are the pockets large enough for a phone?
The secure pockets are designed for small essentials. Most modern smartphones should fit, but please check the dimensions of your device against the pocket size if you have a larger model.
What activities is this jacket best suited for?
It's ideal for activities where lightweight warmth and protection from light elements are needed, such as hiking, trekking, fast-paced walking, and general outdoor pursuits in changeable or mild to cool conditions. It also works well for everyday casual wear.
Troubleshooting
Water no longer beads on the fabric surface.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Wash the jacket following care instructions and consider reapplying a DWR treatment product designed for outdoor apparel.
Jacket doesn't feel as warm as expected.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers for the temperature. Check if the jacket is clean, as dirt can compress insulation. For very cold conditions, consider adding an additional mid-layer or a heavier outer shell.
Zippers are stiff or sticking.
Clean any dirt or debris from the zipper teeth. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant (e.g., silicone-based) or a graphite pencil to the teeth to improve smoothness.
Pockets feel damp inside after light rain.
While the exterior fabric has DWR, seams are not always fully taped on water-repellent jackets. For items that must stay dry, use waterproof dry bags within the jacket pockets, especially in prolonged light showers.

Compatibility
This jacket is highly compatible with a layering system:
- Base Layers: Wear over a moisture-wicking base layer for optimal thermal regulation during active use.
- Outer Shells: For protection against heavy rain or strong winds, it pairs well under a waterproof and windproof outer shell.
- Other Apparel: Suitable for pairing with hiking trousers, walking shorts, and various outdoor footwear.
Care Instructions
Proper care will maintain the jacket's performance and longevity:
- Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle. Close all zippers and fasteners before washing. Use a mild detergent designed for technical outerwear or a non-bio liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the DWR treatment.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. If tumble drying, add a few clean tennis balls to help fluff the insulation.
- DWR Reapplication: Over time, the DWR treatment may wear off. If water no longer beads on the fabric surface, you can re-treat the jacket with a spray-on or wash-in DWR product specifically designed for outdoor apparel.
- Storage: Store the jacket clean and dry, uncompressed in a closet or drawer. Avoid prolonged compression to maintain the loft of the Hydroloft® insulation.
