Every Berne insulated style has a Warmth Rating, so you can pick the right gear for how and where you work. Because comfort depends on factors like wind, sun, humidity and activity level, we don't tie our ratings to specific temperatures. Use this as your guide:
Warm: Active work on cool days, or a layer for changing weather.
Examples: Signature Sleeve Hooded Pullover, Men's Zippered Pocket Hooded Pullover Sweatshirt, Women's Signature Sleeve Hooded Pullover.
Warmer: All-day outdoor work in cold weather.
Examples: Heritage Grid Fleece-Lined Full-Zip Hooded Sweatshirt, Women's Sherpa-Lined Softstone Duck Hooded Jacket, Women's Softstone Duck Insulated Bib Overall.
Warmest: Long stretches outdoors in freezing temperatures.
Examples: Heritage Insulated Duck Bib Overall, Heritage Duck Insulated Coverall, Heritage Duck Hooded Active Work Jacket.
Extreme Warmth: Low-activity work in the harshest cold, like standing or sitting still for hours.
Examples: Icecap Insulated Work Coat, Icecap Insulated Bib Overall, Women's Icecap Insulated Parka.
The Icecap Collection pairs a waterproof, wind and abrasion resistant nylon shell with arctic-weight insulation.

Common questions
Does Berne have warmth ratings for its jackets?
Yes. Every Berne insulated jacket, coat, bib overall and coverall has a Berne Warmth Rating: Warm, Warmer, Warmest or Extreme Warmth. For example, the Women's Sherpa-Lined Softstone Duck Hooded Jacket is Warmer, the Heritage Duck Hooded Active Work Jacket is Warmest and the Icecap Insulated Work Coat is Extreme Warmth.
How does the Berne Warmth Rating work?
Each rating matches a style to how much you'll be moving and how long you'll be out. Warm is for active work on cool days, and Extreme Warmth is for standing or sitting still in the harshest cold. The less you move, the warmer you'll want to go.
Where do I find a product's Warmth Rating?
It's on every insulated product page, right under the price. You can also shop by warmth.
Do warmth ratings work the same for men's, women's and kids' styles?
Yes. The same four ratings are used across men's, women's and youth insulated styles.
