Durable 400D Nylon
Waterproof
Unique flat rip stop
Bergshell is a completely new fabric from Fjällräven which is extremely durable and completely waterproof (10 000mm white TPU laminate). At the same time, of course, it holds the high environmental standards that Fjällräven has, with 31% recycled nylon (from post-production) and a yarn process that halves the CO2 footprint.
Creating a material with the highest possible abrasion resistance and also the highest possible tear strength in 100% nylon is not easy because it requires two completely different types of yarns.

In Bergshell we combine filament yarn and air textured yarn creating a fabric that has both high abrasion strength and high tear strength.

A balanced weave
Unlike most of the fabrics on the market, Bergshell is a fully balanced weave which makes the fabric equally strong in all directions.
