Berghaus Men's Cornice III Interactive Gore-Tex Waterproof Shell Jacket | Durable | Breathable Rain Coat
C**.
Superb Gore-Tex Waterproof Jacket.
I've owned this Berghaus Cornice III jacket for around three years and I'm really pleased with the quality and fit.The ability to zip in a Berghaus interactive fleece jacket is a huge bonus and makes this coat a year round favourite of mine.The sizing us very generous, as I'm around a 56 inch chest and the 3XL is just right, even with an interactive (IA) fleece in place.I've never been wet whilst wearing this coat, even whilst walking in a heavy storm and the fleece lining, if fitted, makes it a really warm garment for chilly winter days.The pack away hood is of a good size and the warp knit lined collar makes it comfortable and cosy around the neck.The Gore-Tex, two layer fabric makes the jacket highly breathable if worn on a wet spring day.The inner map pocket is generously sized and the two outer pockets have storm flaps to ensure anything carried, such as a pair of gloves or a smart phone, remain dry.The length of the jacket is good, keeping your thighs dry and the zip can be opened from the bottom allowing more flexibility of movement if required.I paid around £129.00 via Amazon and think this represents excellent value for money.

Stylish and professional quality
I am 6ft and 15stone and if I wanted this jacket for style over purpose, I'd have got a Large but XL fits well with room to fit a zip in fleece over a jumper and t shirt and vest as layering is the best way for hiking in the UK due to the weather.As a breathable and waterproof material, it keeps me warm and dry while never sweating as any persperation is able to leave the body thought the goretex membrane, which is why I would always buy goretex for outdoor pursuits.The jacket is made of a lighter weight material than other more stiff Berghaus goretex jackets that I have or have owned in the past but the build quality is of the usual professional standard and the jacket is clearly hard-wearing with some nice additions like fleece inside the pockets and double flap over the zip to stop any wind or rain from penetrating.Great professional outdoors jacket that I also got at a great price while it was on offer

Fabulous quality
I have had my old Bergaus Trango coat for 30 years and it is still going strong. Recently I sent it back to them for some minor refreshment (zip, tape, etc) and it came back looking like new - all free of charge. This is.a brand that puts quality and customer care at the top of the agenda.This new coat is a perfect fit for me - I got the medium and I am 5ft 10.5 ins with a 34 in waist. The size is a generous M - even with fleece, etc underneath it still feels roomy. The breathability is excellent and the fold away hood is superbly designed. I prefer to wear a hat in the rain so the folded away had also doubles as a really effective raised, windproof collar. It is all very nice and snug.I went for the black option - mainly because my old one is purple and green so I wanted a more sober one this time. It does look incredibly smart and can be worn round town as much as on a long walk.I can not recommend Berghaus highly enough and I am so glad I bought from them again this time round after 30 years of good service.

Great value Goretex
Good quality jacket. Decent baffles over the zip to stop rain, double zipper to allow fleece or similar inner garment to be fixed in properly. Good hood with nice deep neck "baffles" to keep rain & wind out. Sleeve length perfect. Early days but waterproofing seems good.Could be a bit better tailored but drawstrings allow sufficient adjustments.183cm/6ft average build & Large seems to fit well.Would be nice to have some more adventurous colour options.

Keeps the rain out without making you too hot.
Why did you choose this product over others?:I work in a college out in the countryside, and I have to walk the grounds which are extensive. My previous coats have been a godsend. I am sure this one will serve me just as well.Quality:Berghaus are a great brand. I’ve bought loads second hand but I could not resist this prime day deal. Breathable:The gortex material allows for perspiration to escape, while keeping the rain out. Perfect for Britain!

Great quality
My third 'Cornice', used for photography for in all weathers and each has lasted many years until inevitable wear and tear just makes me want to smarten up and replace. The old ones go in the back of the car for emergencies! Two front hand pockets with good fastening could be a touch larger, but there is a deep tucked away breast inner pocket for security. Hood is superb albeit a little bulky - but provides max protection. Velcro fasteners on the cuffs are useful, and zips are top quality which is always important. Can zip in a Bergaus interactive fleece for winter conditions although I just use any make of fleece as my under layer. Not cheap - look for a deal as I did on this one - but overall they do the job I need for work and look smart too
