Story & heritage
Launched from the Extrem era, the Trango sits at the point where Berghaus mountain equipment became recognisable street language. Brand history records the Extrem range and Trango Jacket arriving in 1986, after Berghaus had become an early European user of GORE-TEX.
The current reissue keeps the jacket's sharp colour blocking and expedition attitude while updating the construction for today's waterproof shell expectations. It is the clearest bridge between Berghaus archive culture and working mountain kit.
Materials & craft
The official product specifies a three-layer GORE-TEX build, a stiffened hood peak, four flap-covered pockets, and cord adjustments at the hood, collar, waist and hem. The result is a deliberately protective shell: substantial, sealed, and built around storm management rather than minimalism.
How to choose & style
Treat it as the statement shell: the colour-block panels do the visual work over plain fleece, denim, hiking trousers or black technical layers. Size for movement if it will sit over insulation; choose the quieter grey or green palette if you want the archive shape without the rave-field colour.
