What is Hydrodown?

A glossy red puffer jacket worn by a model, highlighting the hood, zip pockets, and Berghaus logo, with a clean studio background and close-up details.

Water-repellent. Warm. Revolutionary. It’s down like no other, by Berghaus.

For those wild and wintry adventures. Or just a day in the park.
Our Hydrodown® technology will keep you warm and comfortable.

Traditional down is useless when wet. Get soaked and it’ll collapse into a sludgy mess. Hydrodown® repels water, which means your kit stays puffy and you’ll stay warm in the rain, the snow, whatever. The key is our innovative treatment of natural goose and duck down. A special coating creates hydrophobic down clusters that won’t collapse when wet. We like to think of it as suped-up down insulation.

Hydrodown® comes in different fill levels. The higher the number, the greater warmth-to-weight ratio you’ll get. Which means we can tailor your kit to your exact needs.

Stays puffy

Hydrodown® won’t collapse in wet conditions. We’ve tested it: 16 hours fully immersed in water, and it stays puffy.

Kinder to the planet

We use ethically sourced down. This means we can trace the entire supply line, and we know no birds are plucked live or force-fed.
