About this product

The Berghaus Men’s Torus Fleece Jacket offers versatile warmth for outdoor activities and everyday wear. Constructed from Polartec Classic microfleece, a fabric made from recycled water bottles, this jacket efficiently traps heat while remaining breathable – a key feature for comfortable layering. The durable polyester material is tough enough to withstand the demands of mountain travel but remains soft against the skin, thanks to its high collar designed to combat windchill.

This A-Line style jacket with long sleeves and a standard length is suitable for adult use across all seasons. Featuring a full-zip design and two zipped hand pockets, it’s ideal for layering under waterproof jackets or wearing independently as a casual piece. The jacket’s practical design allows you to keep essentials close at hand and shield your hands from the elements.

The jacket's construction utilises 100% polyester Polartec® Micro fleece with no stretch, providing a lightweight feel. It is not designed for use in wet weather and does not offer water resistance. This makes it perfect as an underlayer or for lighter activities where waterproofing isn’t required.

Care instructions advise machine washing. The jacket includes a polyester lining and offers a standard fit. This Berghaus garment is built to provide warmth and comfort, making it a reliable addition to any outdoor wardrobe.
