Berghaus Vinson 2012 (2012)

£120.00

The Vinson is made from Berghaus’s AQ2 fabric, which is very soft and flexible. A mesh lining further adds to the comfort provided by this jacket. The fabric doesn’t boast the performance ratings of Gore-Tex Performance Shell for example, as featured in other Berghaus jackets, but it is a good low-priced option. There is slightly more length in this jacket ...

Berghaus GTX Gaiter (2012)

£35.00

As the name suggests, the Berghaus GTX Gaiter is made from Gore-Tex, and it benefits from a nice large area of tougher material around the ankle cuff. It also comes in two leg lengths so there is more chance it will fit you. At the back of the leg is a stretch panel, which should improve the fit further. When ...

Berghaus Bowscale

£160.00

A 2-layer Gore-Tex jacket suited to lower level walking. The less technical styling does mean that you won’t look like a lost mountain guide when out walking the dog. The face fabric is pleasantly soft and isn’t too noisy. There aren’t any vents to draw away the heat, and so it does tend to be warmer than most. The face ...

Berghaus Attrition 2011

£320.00

The Berghaus Attrition combines Gore-Tex Pro Shell with stretch panels of the fabric in the black areas under the arms to improve freedom of movement when climbing without relying on excess material. The jacket also has an innovative venting chinguard, so you can breathe more easily when the front of the jacket and hood are fully battened down. There’s a ...

Berghaus Extrem Couloir Mountain Pants 2011

£200.00

The Berghaus Extrem Couloir Mountain Pants are serious mountain trouser suitable for the most testing environments. Made of Gore-Tex Pro Shell, they are a far cry from stiff, rustly overtrousers of old; the fabric is soft, supremely comfy and flexible, and Cordura patches on the inside ankle and knees offer good abrasion resistance. The full-length side zip aids taking the ...

Berghaus Ridgeway

£125.00

This top has a semi-athletic fit to it, with long arms and a reasonably tight torso, although there’s a little more room than the most sporty of jackets. The lightweight fabric has a ripstop construction making is pretty durable, although it is a bit noisy. The hood was even more frustrating, never really pulling tight around the face, and the ...

Berghaus Chulu II

£90.00

The Chulu is a synthetic insulated top, with a midweight fill made from 50% recycled materials. The cut is fairly simple with no hood, and only a slight drop at the rear to cover your backside as you move. The medium-weight insulation gives it versatility, allowing it to be used as a windproof insulating outer layer, or a mid-layer under ...

Berghaus Mount Asgard Smock 2011

£220.00

With outdoors clothing, it’s on-the-hill performance that really counts when you’re battling against the conditions to reach the summit of a mountain. But it may come as a surprise to hear that not all outdoor gear is actually designed with performance high on the agenda, as price and fashion can be what determines if a product is a hit or ...

Berghaus Blencathra

£100.00

A walking-specific jacket, with a reasonable price tag and plenty of useful features, including the ability to zip in a fleece. The fabric is softer than that of the more technical jackets although not necessarily quieter, and it did perform well against the wind and rain in general use. The traditional cut of the fabric isn’t so well fitted with ...

Berghaus Temperance 2010

£230.00

The weight of the Berghaus Temperance is particularly impressive, and when combined with the price it offers amazing value. For your 468g and £230 you get a top-notch fabric in the form of Gore-Tex Pro Shell. The jacket then has a fairly conventional layout of a front zip and two large chest pockets. The chest pockets are high enough to ...

£150.00

The Berghaus Paclite multi-activity jacket has been popular for many years. The material is Gore-Tex Paclite, which has the benefit of being very packable and lightweight as the name suggests.

Berghaus Dru 2010

£200.00

Designed as a lightweight Alpine jacket, there are stretch panels of Gore-Tex Paclite used down the sides of the Berghaus Dru as well as down the sleeves to allow a closer fit without restricting movement. Standard Paclite is used elsewhere. The result is a very lightweight jacket but there are also lots of features here to make the Dru practical ...

Berghaus Monsoon 2010

£40.00

The Berghaus Monsoon now uses AQ2, which is an updated version of the Aquafoil fabric that this jacket was made from in the past. There is a mesh lining inside for extra comfort. The front zip gets a double stormflap that is held in place with Velcro, so this should keep water out pretty easily. There are two zipped hip ...

£80.00

The Berghaus RG1 general-purpose waterproof weighs 614g (size L); AQ2 waterproof and breathable fabric; mesh lining for comfort; hood rolls into collar; two large pockets; front zip gets double stormflap. But hood is very basic, without peak or good movement; pocket access is easily obscured by rucksack belts.

Berghaus GTX Gaiter 2010

£30.00

Unlike the more traditional elasticated cuff design, Berghaus has opted for a tapered fit with its GTX Gaiter, which means no bunching of excess fabric when you tighten the easy-to-use drawcord. For me these were the best fit of all the gaiters we tested. The design makes for a close fit that I found was perfect, despite the gaiters not ...

Berghaus Paclite II

£150.00

This Paclite II proved very weatherproof on bad days, yet exceedingly easy to carry when it wasn’t needed. The rollaway hood is easily adjustable and usefully deep, and the peak is stiff enough to withstand some fairly blowy conditions. The main opening is protected by a substantial external stormflap and the DWR coating worked well throughout the test. The cuffs ...

Berghaus Deluge 2010

A really good compromise at a very good price. They are very comfortable, courtesy of a soft fabric and mesh lining, and they are well-featured, with hip-length two-way leg-zips and an elasticated and drawcord waist. They also come in a choice of leg lengths. Didn’t breathe as well as some. Top value for money. VITAL STATSSizes: S-XXXLFabric: AquafoilWeight: 425gContact: 0191 ...

Berghaus Couloir/Abruzzi 2010

£200.00

Berghaus has been producing gear for British hill-walkers and mountaineers since the mid 1970s, so they should know a thing or two about keeping people dry. The Couloir trouser (the Abruzzi is the women’s version) is designed for mountaineering where unrestricted movement is required but it is equally at home on the fells when a walker just wants to be ...

Berghaus Mera Peak 2009

£240.00

What does your jacket say about you? Back in the late Nineties the name Mera Peak said mountaineer and serious skier. The Berghaus Mera Peak was the 2-layer Gore-Tex version of the 3-layer Berghaus Trango Extrem, a benchmark mountaineering jacket that allowed the casual observer to identify Brits in Chamonix at over 100 paces. But times change, designs evolve and ...

The collar and hood are separate, so the collar stays warm and comfortable whether the hood is up or down. It also means the hood can be pulled on ...

BERGHAUS PRO TREK

£250.00

Review: Winter jackets need to feel up to the job and the Pro Trek certainly does that. Fitwise, it has good-length sleeves and a first-class hem, and the hood is cavernous and very adjustable. The fabric isn’t the softest, but this is a small price to pay for the security it offers. In the mountains it really did the business, ...
