Berghaus Crusader 90+20 Rucsac

Product Information

PFOA is used as an ingredient in the production of water-proof membranes and may be present at very low, trace levels in finished products. PFOA is also formed in trace quantities as a by-product in the production of the chemicals we use as a water-proof fabric finish. Therefore, in line with most high performance water-proof and water-repellent garments, there is a theoretical chance of PFOA being detected at very low, trace levels on our products. These come in four different sizes according to user height. They are rough guidance only, as people have different body proportions and personal preferences. Benefit: Protects from rain, wind and snow and can provide additional warmth especially when combined with the other layers.

All Berghaus products are covered under our Product Lifetime Guarantee and we are aware that from time to time faults can appear. Should a product fail due to manufacturing defects in workmanship and/or materials, or a genuine fault, we will repair the item free of charge or replace at our discretion. If it’s no longer available, we’ll replace with an alternative from our current range that’s as close to it as possible. The waterproof coating acts as a shield towards wet weather, and allows the water to simply bead off the garment. If this waterproof coating has faded away over time, the water that gets on to the garment will not bead off as easily and will build up. This means that there is an extra coating of water on the outside of the garment, which inhibits the breathability and does not allow warm air and condensation on the inside of the garment to escape. This can result in what appears to be a leaking product, when in fact the build up of moisture on the inside is warm air and condensation that cannot escape. The successor of the legendary Crusader, this is the updated version of the old workhorse, now with all the fancy little luxuries the 21st century has to offer! Lots of PALS attachment points, hydration bladder compartment, etc.Two Layer: This consists of the outer face fabric with a waterproof coating or laminate on the inside. To help protect the laminate or coating on the inside of the face fabric, a loose nylon lining is inserted inside the garment. We use a water repellent mesh lining with full nylon in the arms and waist area to avoid snagging from rings, watches and belts etc. To answer the question regarding the acronym RET and the unit of measure….RET is the resistance to evaporative heat loss meaning the lower the number the more breathable a fabric is.

The reason why we have stitch through baffles in the other areas is to reduce bulk and to deliver warmth where you really need it and save weight in areas where you don’t need the extra warmth. This has come from extensive thermal body mapping. Our guarantee covers genuine manufacturing faults or defects only and does not cover normal wear and tear. To help clarify what this means, here’s a few pointers of things that wouldn’t be covered: There are many different tests for breathability of a fabric. Several test methods will give results in g/m²/24hours (I’m not sure which method the customer is referring to) whereas RET, which is the standard test used by Gore-Tex, gives results in m²Pa/W. Berghaus is committed to being a responsible business, and we give our designers and suppliers the guidance they need to avoid the use of any potentially harmful substances. Compliance with our restricted substances policy, and relevant laws and regulations, is a condition of business with suppliers.
