Exellent value for money coat. Got th size 40 chest tall fit and its the perfect size for me, I am 5 ft 11 and slim build. I have been waiting for the unissued version to become available in my size but settled on the grade 1. I would of struggled to tell the difference as this coat could pass for brand new, the water still beads off the gore-tex and it is still 100% water proof. I would have given the coat 5 stars but the lower pockets have a rubbery waterproof lining which is only glued together and as soon as anything of any weight (eg a phone) is placed in the pockets the glue comes unstuck. Probably an easy fix with a needle and thread or more glue.

This is a great jacket and I am very pleased with it. The quality was definitely grade 1 and the sizing was spot on for me. Delivery was quick and at the time stated in delivery update. I have used this company before and will definitely do so again.

I’m slim tall 185cm 78kg and this is a fantastic fit on body and arms giving good coverage to mid thigh and still room for a fleece or similar underneath. Did a two hour walk in heavy rain and no rain got inside. Too warm really if active in summer months but will be perfect in summer if inactive or Autumn to Spring with warm layers if necessary. Very pleased.

Arrived sooner than expected and well packed.Good fit for my 5'7'' and 40" chest with room for fleece or bulky jumper. Well tried and tested for waterproof on a typical Scottish downpour with no leaks or damp patches. Great value for a gore-tex jacket which would cost 3 times the price for a named brand. Customer service excellent as I belatedly added an order for a liner which was sent in same package.

This is a really nice jacket and great value. I'm a 38" chest and would have preferred a bit tighter fit but this is the smallest available and it means there's room for layers. At 6ft, the 'Tall' cut gives a nice length for protecting the thighs and backside! Nice detailing with press stud cuffs and zip flap. Both hood and waist drawstrings were present. The condition is excellent, like new with no signs of wear and tear or repair. Not worn in rain yet but water beads off the material so should keep me nice and dry!
