This is a quality piece of kit for hikes, as you’d expect from the brand. The padding / lining is excellent – it’s really nicely insulated, and is a bit like wearing a light sleeping bag when you’re walking in the cold wind and rain! It’s also a bit longer than some outdoor wear, which I found a good thing as it keeps you covered up beyond the waist. Water is drawn off it like from a duck’s back (tested in the wet and wild Edinburgh weather) so it absolutely does the trick in that department.
Style-wise, it’s nice and plain in all black (actually very very dark navy in sunlight) with the small Berghaus logo on one side of the chest. I think it actually looks quite trendy as it’s a fairly slim cut – no bad thing.
As outdoor wear it’s something between a regular light coat and something more heavy duty, offering enough protection for weekend walks and rambles. Light enough to squish into a small rucksack, it’s really convenient for the ever-changeable weather, too. All in all, very impressed.
My husband loved this jacket. The price was very competitive. Good value.
Good fit. Well made. Very light to wear and carry. Incredibly warm. Only criticism – and very minor – a double ended zip would have been great. It gives you the option to zip upwards from the bottom when sat down. Just gives that tad extra.
Don’t you just hate English winter weather with all that cold and damp and rain! What better way to keep warm than this jacket with its double layer of waterproof fabric. Even better, it’s lightweight, not bulky at all. The hood is fully adjustable as are the cuffs and hem which can be pulled in to make a tighter fit, thus preventing drafts from getting in. The zip pockets keep things handy.
This is, as is to be expected from this brand, as really well made, well designed jacket which, hopefully, will last many winters.
Finally, it claims to be “planet friendly” thanks to the bluesign approved fabric.
I already have a lightweight Berghaus water proof summer coat that isn’t really up to the winter temperatures so I was grateful when the opportunity to try this one came along. I am a 42″ chest and the large size is spot on for me. The first thing I noticed about this coat is it’s lightness. My other Coat is light weight but the lining in this one gives it the appearance of a much heavier coat. The lining is quilt soft and has a lovely warm feel to it. The side pockets are deep and have a very noticeable soft, warm feel too. They are zipped and have flaps designed to keep out the wet. The coat is fully water proof and insulated and like other Berghaus products I think the clothing is designed to be layered? It comes with a lifetime guarantee against defects. I did notice a bit of difficulty fastening the lower part of the zipper and it has a tendency to trap the lining. I went to put my phone in an inner pocket and found there weren’t any which is a shame. I found the hood is great and especially like the peak. The hood stays put too even when it’s windy. I could do work some trousers of the same quality now.
Warm & waterproof. The outer fabric is soft to touch and proved both water and windproof in heavy winter rain. Quite slim fitting, more of a medium than large
Lovely jacket very well made . Soft and practical . Not too heavy so ideal if you need to put it in a bag
A bit larger than expected, but hubby is betwen M and L, so I guess it is normal. Desingn is quite plain, but it is good to wear in rain, really good insulation.
A jacket for the outdoors. And for men.
It’s insulated. And it really is very good in that respect. You can just feel how much of that there is when you first try it, which makes it really well layered and nice and cosy when out and about in the cold.
It’s also waterproof.
Full washing instructions can be found in a label at the bottom.
There are also two pockets, in the usual position of such things in that they are low down each side at the front. They are diagonal in the opening, with zips. So you can slip your hands in there if you wish. Or put things in there and do them up securely.
It zips up at the front. Very sturdily. There’s also a hood built into the body of the coat, and that stays up very well.
Almost a perfect product. But it would be even better if had an inside pocket or two. As I do like to keep things like phone and wallet in those when out and about.
But so it goes. Even without that, this is still a very good coat, and well worth trying.
