First Look: Berghaus Trango Series
Many things outdoors are worth the wait—a mountain sunset, a powder day, a frozen waterfall, to name a few. Here’s one more to add to the list: Berghaus, the British mountain apparel company founded in 1966, is finally available in the United States.
After six decades spent designing outdoor-performance attire that excels everywhere from the most challenging alpine conditions to everyday urban outings, Berghaus is offering a collection for U.S. consumers that showcases the brand’s strengths. These three products in particular stand out for their protection, versatility, and aesthetics.
Trango Mountain Jacket
Want to be ready for anything when it comes to rain, snow, and wind? Start with this jacket. The Trango Mountain Jacket is built to keep you dry and protected in the wettest, wildest conditions, thanks to three-layer Gore-Tex waterproofing. Add well-designed cinch cords that batten everything down, four spacious pockets, and armor-like 75-denier polyester fabric, and you have a jacket that always delivers on job one: protecting you from the elements.
It gets better. You’ll also be ready for anything when you’re not in the wilderness. The Trango Mountain Jacket is just at home on city streets, with a bold, colorblocked design and a timeless style that goes well with anything. The trifecta of protection, durability, and style makes it easy to see why this is an iconic jacket in Britain, and will soon be here as well.
(available in unisex sizes)
Trango Mountain Fleece
Berghaus is known for a design aesthetic that looks to the past but belongs firmly in the present. The Trango Mountain Fleece is a shining example of that DNA, with an oversized cut that has throwback appeal and eye-catching, two-tone colorways that hearken back to Berghaus classics in the ’90s.
Performance-wise, the Mountain Fleece is a thoroughly modern midlayer. Its soft, double-brushed fleece is super-comfortable and super-versatile, offering a combination of warmth and breathability that works in a variety of layering setups. Two zippered pockets offer a refuge for cold hands, and you can tighten the hem to seal out chilly drafts.

Trango Mountain Windbreaker
For blustery days when you want protection but don’t want a heavy, bulky jacket, this light shell provides exactly what’s needed: effective wind resistance in a streamlined package. A DWR treatment shrugs off brief rain showers, and a roll-away hood lets you deploy extra protection or go for a sleeker look when the weather allows.
Like the rest of the Trango line, the Mountain Windbreaker nods to the brand’s decades-long heritage. It sports the brand’s iconic logo on its sleeve and chest, and the colors would fit right in on any trail or city block from the ’90s through today. That’s Berghaus at its best: enduring function and style, which is always worth the wait.
Founded in 1966 in Newcastle upon Tyne, UK, Berghaus is a global leader in premium outdoor outerwear, known for innovative designs and lasting durability. From pioneering lightweight rucksacks to iconic Gore-Tex jackets, Berghaus equips adventurers to tackle the elements.
