It’s a common question, if you’re new to the outdoor world: “what type of insulated jacket is good for me?” Well, if we’re honest, it depends on the activity you’re doing!
A down jacket, zipped up on a freezing day, can feel so warm and sumptuous. But it also needs to perform it’s best for you.
So, here are our key jackets categorised for your needs.
The Mountaineer
Our Ramche Reflect Down Jacket – The toughest climbs demand insulation that delivers superior warmth without the weight. The super-light fabric unique to Berghaus offers incredible insulation and is twice as strong as the nearest competition. Ground-breaking internal Reflect technology increases your warmth by 10% as the fine mesh reflects body heat back into your core creating unrivaled efficiency.
The body-mapped design distributes heat where you need it most and reduces bulk in critical areas, while our Hydrodown® treated with Nikwax® keeps you warmer for longer by repelling water for up to 16 hours so it can carry on working even when wet.
The Climber
The Women’s Nula Hybrid Jacket – This hybrid is a great combination of advanced synthetic Hydroloft® Polyball insulation keeping heat at the centre of your body, while the cosy knitted fleece arms and sides offer greater freedom for strenuous climbs. Warm yet breathable when the going gets tough, with the added bonus of water resistant fibres to aid weather proofing. When the sun shines, it compresses into a brilliantly packable piece to go wherever the day takes you. For comfort, fluid movement and convenience, this beauty is pretty hard to beat.
