Berghaus resurrect the Meru Mountain Jacket for Concert Collection

We’ve been anticipating this moment for a while now. It’s stayed bubbling away – building and building – but finally everything feels as if it’s about to crescendo. The fuse was lit in August of 2024, Berghaus joined the party in October with their ‘Icons’ capsule, and now the brand is back, and they’ve gone all maracas blazing.

Obviously, we’re on about the Oasis reunion & the subsequent Berghaus capsule that saw Liam Gallagher have it out with a Lidl jacket potato. Anyway, all guerrilla-marketing-warfare aside, the brand (Berghaus, not Lidl) has just announced a new capsule. One that functions as a comprehensive Summer ’25 care package titled the ‘Concert Collection.’

The collection comes complete with a plethora of gig-ready garb, but there’s a large waterproof elephant in the room we’ve got to address before we do anything else…

For this capsule, Berghaus has resurrected the infamous Meru Mountain Jacket in a handful of choice colours, most notably the infamous red & navy combo worn by the writer’s dad somewhere in the Lake District c.1996. And Liam Gallagher for that Oslo gig in 1997. All jokes aside, it’s a pretty big moment to see such an iconic piece of outerwear resurrected, and if the red and navy feels a bit too nostalgic for you, it’s also available in Purple/Grey or Green/Black.

Accompanying the Meru is the same supermarket-coloured Trango that caused that stir late last year, as well as handsome Orange/Grey and Grey/Blue renditions.

The heritage offerings don’t stop there, though. Berghaus has also brought three colours of their 1997 Fleece into the equation, and all of them look like they could’ve been plucked from the backs of returning home Hacienda-heads from the same year. The star of the show is the bright Red/Blue colour, but the Red/Grey & Green/Grey (which actually looks light blue) options aren’t bad either.

Closing the Concert Collection is a duo of tees, one paying homage to that iconic Oasis Union-Jack swirl T-shirt from 1993, and the other paying homage to a vintage Berghaus logo. And finally, there’s a reversible 1997 Reverse Bucket Hat & 1997 Wool Beanie.

As mentioned at the start, this has been brewing for some time now – there’s nostalgia aplenty, and if you’re slightly nineties-obsessed, you’ve probably already checked out. It’s one for the ages, and has got us intrigued about what the summer holds. Perhaps washing machines with a ‘Whatever‘ jingle that plays when you’ve finished your 30-degree wash and dry cycle aren’t so far off after all…

The Berghaus Concert Collection is available to purchase now from Berghaus.
