Berghaus Extrem Light Site Launches

Berghaus has launched an Extrem Light microsite to highlight its range of new ultra lightweight kit for this spring.

Extrem Light items range from New Paclite waterproof shells like the feathery paclite Smock and matching Pant, through packs and clothing - including one of our all time favourite base-layers - to footwear.

The full range is in the shops now, but we've been using some Extrem Light items since late last summer when it was presented to the reputable outdoors press (and us) at a launch in the Lakes - see article link at bottom of the page - and we're very impressed with their overall performance.

We'll be bringing you full reviews of that kit over the next couple of weeks, starting with that mad 270-gramme Paclite Smock next Monday. But if you want a taster of what else is in the range, get your mouse over to the Extrem Light microsite. The rest of the Berghaus spring/summer 03 range is coming into the shops at the moment and full details should be on the main Berghaus site in the next couple of weeks.

There's also a very difficult competition there to win a new Paclite Jacket, but you'll need to be able to count to enter... So what are you waiting for?
