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 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 ...

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 Deluge Overtrouser 2010

£45.00

Berghaus has long been associated with making practical waterproofs for the hillgoer. The brand produces both technical waterproof trousers for the mountaineer as well as more down-to-earth rainwear for the hill-walker. The Deluge boasts very long side zips, which makes it instantly attractive to anyone that struggles to fit overtrousers over their boots. DesignThe most important feature on the Berghaus ...

Berghaus Tshort Haul 2010

£40.00

Berghaus has hit this market perfectly with the Tshort Haul, managing to produce kit that is practical and well cut. The shirt feels silky and cool, and comes with antimicrobial treatment that means even if you do get hot the clothing won’t pong. There’s a zipped pocket at the chest and mesh at the back to help wick sweat away. ...

Berghaus Deluge 2010

£45.00

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 Long-Sleeve Zip Tech T base layer

£28.00

A super-light base-layer that is perfect for summer walking, but doesn’t provide as much warmth as others in the winter. The lightweight fabric and flat seams feel great against the skin and the fabric wicks moisture incredibly quickly, dries very rapidly, and is treated with silver ion technology for odour-resistance. There isn’t enough stretch in the fabric to allow the ...

Berghaus Monsoon 2009

£40.00

The Berghaus Monsoon is a popular jacket for kids that has been reviewed favourably in Trail for many years. It is made from Aquafoil, a well-proven Berghaus waterproof and breathable fabric. There is a mesh lining to add extra comfort as well. The front zip has a double stormflap on the outside to keep the worst of the rain out. ...

Berghaus LS Zip Tech T 2009

£28.00

The Berghaus LS Zip Tech T base layer weighs 201g (men’s S); looser fit; good price; very comfy; light; generous zip for venting; quick-drying; very versatile due to warmth; great wicking action and swift drying time, so a good choice for changeable conditions. But seams run along shoulders; fabric snags and pills easily; sleeves and hem are prone to riding ...

Berghaus Remote 25

£40.00

A flimsy, low-cost pack that is better-suited to casual use or travel. The channelled back has no reinforcement so doesn’t distribute loads very well and doesn’t protect the back from hard or sharp objects. Works well when only lightly loaded – courtesy of useful side compression straps – but struggles with a full and heavy load. The main opening is ...

Berghaus Roam 30 2009

£45.00

The Berghaus Roam 30’s price of £45 is great value for a comfortable rucksack with ample day walk features. The Roam is also available in both men and women-specific fits (most sacks we looked at are ‘unisex’.) It fits medium-sized backs, and the women’s version has comfy, contoured shoulder straps for a women’s narrower top half. The fabric is robust, ...

Berghaus Raid Junior

£40.00

Modern styling and some reflective trim give the Berghaus Raid Junior children’s boot shelf appeal. There is a waterproof lining too. Underfoot a Vibram branded outsole is provided with lugs that will give grip on easier terrain. Also the toe box and heel cup are reasonably stiff and protective.  But the very shallow lug pattern on the sole limits grip ...

BERGHAUS W ROAM 30

£45.00

Review: The simple and lightweight harness was nicely soft and flexible, although the shoulder straps were set too far apart. Also the chest strap was rather fiddly. A large and lightweight pack with a simple ‘old school’ design that will really appeal to some. However, it’s already looking quite scuffed so the low weight and price probably come at the ...

BERGHAUS LS ZIP TECH T

£26.00

Review: The polyester fabric feels wonderfully soft against the skin but it lacks any real stretch so it needs to be worn loose (you may have to go up a size). This base-layer dealt well with moisture, keeping things dry when working really hard, and the high neck and lovely long zip made it as versatile as any top tested. ...

Berghaus Out There 2009

£40.00

The Berghaus Out There is a good general glove with a Gore-Tex waterproof lining to guarantee dry hands. There’s synthetic reinforcement on the palm and also the fingertips. The fit is fairly close with a wide webbing buckle locking the glove in place, while a drawcord closes down the cuff. There’s reflective piping too for night action. It has a ...

Berghaus Form Gaiters

£30.00

Rather baggy in the leg and also very high, and while the adjustment worked well at the foot, the cuff strap wasn’t as efficient as a drawcord. The unusual side zip design made them easy to zip up, but the lace tab at the front was fiddly. Effective once secured. Contact: 0191 516 5700, www.berghaus.com

Berghaus Mach 24 rucksack (2008)

£45.00

ReviewAt 672g this ultralight rucksack is very light; can strip down to 642g; internal compression system keeps outside neat; padded hipbelt fins with pockets; three external elasticated pockets; internal and external lid pockets; hydration unit-compatible. But it has only 24 litres capacity; gear can’t be stashed on outside; less reflective than other packs.

Berghaus Distance Shorts

£35.00

These 100 per cent nylon shorts benefit from an extra comfort area around the back to prevent the dreaded trickle of sweat running down your spine on hot days. They have an unfussy design, are a decent fit, and are lightweight and relatively hard-wearing. Ideal in your pack as a just-in-case-it-shines extra.  They were rated ‘Best Value’ in our test.Made ...

Berghaus Distance

£45.00

An excellent fit at the waist and in the leg, although there’s no elastic in the waist, so they lose on versatility here. The fabric is soft and comfortable. A perfect weight for UK hillwalking – warm enough for cooler weather but not over the top in the middle of summer.   Colours: Grey squirrel, covert, coalSizes: 30-34in waist; 30, ...

Berghaus Deluge Overtrouser

£40.00

These are definitely the best waterproof overtrousers for £40 that we tested. In particular they get a long leg zip, making them very easy to fit over boots. That zip also has a double stormflap with press studs, so it will keep out far more water than an exposed water-resistant zip for example. An even nicer addition is the ability ...

Berghaus Navigator Zoff cargo pant

£40.00

Zip-off legs make these men’s and women’s walking trousers very practical for backpacking and hill-walking; two map-sized hip pockets; zip leg pocket that just about takes a map; elasticated waist with belt loops; zipped seat pocket. But zip-offs are not cool by any stretch of the imagination; no ankle adjustment; not stretch fabric.

Berghaus Kids Junior Raid

£40.00

This children’s walking boot has a waterproof lining; reflective panels for road safety; Vibram sole with good cushioning; reasonably stiff toe box and heel cup for protection and support. But very shallow lug pattern on the sole; very soft sole flex limits use to easier terrain; leather upper would be more durable.

Berghaus Men’s Injection

£35.00

These shorts from Berghaus have a nice cut, but there’s no elastic in the waist and, although they have belt loops, no belt is supplied. They’re good-looking and tough enough to take a few scrapes, but don’t repel rain well, and the cargo pocket is awkward to access.

Berghaus Women’s Freeflow III

£45.00

This 25-litre daysack from Berghaus uses the Freeflow concave back system, which is very comfortable and keeps you cool, even with a full load. We liked the dedicated women’s harness with its close-fitting, soft and narrow shoulder straps, and padded hip belt. A roomy main compartment and drawcord opening make the Freeflow easy to pack, and there are plenty of ...
