Bogner - Fire+Ice Hike & Camp

Frequently Asked Questions

• What technologies and materials does Bogner FIRE+ICE use in its hiking jackets and shirts?

  Bogner FIRE+ICE blends high‑tech jersey construction (often with UV protection) and double‑layered four‑way stretch fabrics for freedom of movement, plus durable water‑repellent (DWR) finishes that can be retreated after washing. Many pieces incorporate travel‑quality, reversible construction, quick‑drying/cooling fibers, recycled content for sustainability, and low‑light visibility features like crystal reflective detailing.
• How does the Ivo jacket perform on wet or changeable mountain hikes?

  The Ivo jacket is a performance‑oriented Bogner piece that typically combines a waterproof construction with DWR surface treatment and a zip‑on hood for variable conditions. Its breathability specs (commonly in the 10,000–30,000 g/m²/24h range on performance styles) plus adjustable cuffs and drawcords help manage moisture and temperature during sustained activity.
• What size and fit should I choose for FIRE+ICE hiking apparel?

  Bogner emphasizes dimensionally stable, flexible fits with four‑way stretch and multiple adjustment points (twist closures, drawstrings, adjustable hems) so you can size for base‑layer comfort or light layering. Check the specific product size chart for the model you’re considering (for example the Ivo cut vs. freeride cuts), and if you plan heavier layering pick a size that preserves mobility across shoulders and chest.
• How does FIRE+ICE hiking apparel compare to Bogner’s mainline skiwear or luxury ready‑to‑wear?

  FIRE+ICE is the performance sub‑line tuned for active use—lighter, more breathable, and engineered for moisture management and stretch—whereas Bogner’s mainline often emphasizes luxury materials, heavier insulation options, and fashion‑forward detailing like shearling blends. Both share Bogner’s tailoring and design language, but FIRE+ICE prioritizes trail‑appropriate tech such as Travel Quality fabrics, DWR, and higher breathability.
• Are FIRE+ICE pieces suitable for summer hiking, running, or cycling?

  Yes, many FIRE+ICE items use quick‑drying, cooling fibers with UV protection and high breathability ratings designed for high‑output activities like running and cycling. Look for lightweight jersey constructions and pieces with ventilation and four‑way stretch for unrestricted movement, plus reflective crystal accents for visibility during low‑light outings.
