Berghaus – British functional clothing combining quality with style

The British company Berghaus has been making functional clothes and equipment for ambitious outdoor athletes since 1966. And since their beginnings the founders of Berghaus - Pete Lockey and Gordon Davison - have mainly focused on the needs of athletes, meaning manufacturing products of high quality and functionality. Until today Berghaus has remained true to its own high standards becoming a household name in the outdoor industry.

Live for Adventure

Berghaus lives for adventure. Proof of that are not only the extreme expeditions of Leo Houlding and his team on Baffin Island in North Canada or in the jungles of Venezuela. Each and every product is designed and constructed to withstand the highest requirements during adventures like these.

Only the very best materials like GORE-TEX membranes, Primaloft insulation or Polartec functional materials in combination with highly sophisticated production processes are used. In addition to all that, Berghaus has developed various materials that are used to make functional clothing. All with one goal: to give the wearer the best possible chance for overcoming the harshest conditions and make exceptional achievements possible.

MtnHaus - design and development department

Developing products that can withstand the worst conditions is a very tough business. Berghaus created its very own development center to do just this.

Everything comes together in the so-called MtnHaus: the demands and needs of athletes and the know-how of the product developers. Ideas are formed and directly converted into prototypes, which can then be immediately tested by the athletes - a recipe for success.

Various technologies are introduced

Innovation is anchored deep in the Berghaus company psyche. This is how a number of innovations came about that left a lasting impression on the industry. Last but not least, the team at MtnHaus are the ones to thank for this progress. Various examples include the Bioflex carry system for backpacks or the Hydrodown.

Bioflex: The Bioflex carry system was developed with the idea of saving energy on every step in mind. This is made possible thanks to a hub which makes the hip belt go along with every step you take and in turn, ensures the most natural feeling movement. The carry system is rounded off with a Hyperlink hip belt, which nicely transfers the weight to the pelvis.
Hydrodown: the insulating properties of down are still to this day second to none. The biggest problem, however is the effect that moisture has on it, as it loses some of its insulating properties when wet. Berghaus uses a special DWR coating to counteract this negative effect.

The Extrem series by Berghaus

On Alpine tours or expeditions, the Extrem series by Berghaus is made to withstand the worst conditions. From the versatile softshell jacket and warming down jackets to their tough GORE-TEX Pro-Shell hardshell jacket - all outdoor enthusiasts will find the right products to suit their needs.

Berghaus clothing and outdoor equipment: made by real adventurers and experts to meet the highest demands for outdoor and mountain sports.
