“Excellent (I should say perfect) condition, delivered within 3 days. The jacket is comfortable and feels warm. I especially like the adjustable cuffs (3 press-stud fastenings) and 6 deep pockets (4 outside, 2 inside). I ran my sleeve under a tap for 10 seconds or so to test the waterproofing & it repelled the water beautifully. - Very satisfied customer!”

Hi Emily. Many thanks for your review and we are very pleased to hear how happy you are. Your waterproof test was the first we've been told of and it's good to see the jacket performing as it should. Please note that these jacket have three layers, the outer is water resistant and hence why the tap water sheeted off, the second layer is sandwiched between the outer and inner layers and is the all important Gore-Tex layer. This is where water gets its marching orders and sweat (moisture vapour) escapes. So, all in all, a very good bit of kit, and like you say, our customers are very satisfied with these garments.

“5'9" 41" chest I ordered medium short but found it too roomy even with extra clothing under. You want to be able to add some layers but it felt too big. Got a small short instead which felt much better. I haven't tried in rain yet. The only real negative aspect is the hood which is weirdly small in all aspects. If I stand up very straight it pulls against the top of my head. It also is not deep enough to adequately shield the face. Very disappointing for a waterproof jacket as a hood is obviously an important aspect.”
