Have now used the jacket on a number of occasions and in weather conditions varying from very wet to dry and windy. The jacket could not be faulted. Highly recommended and the best value for money anywhere.

Fit is perfect, condition is really good, delivery was very quick. Unfortunately (not really) it's been a heat wave since it arrived so haven't been able to test how waterproof it is.

Really pleased with this. Very quick delivery and the sizing is what I expected. Deliberately ordered a medium knowing it would have room for layers underneath. I'm out all day walking dogs, in the week I've had this coat it's dealt with howling wind , that big collar is lovely, plenty of rain and cold. It's not what I'd use on a mountain, but as a coat that does the job and I don't mind having dogs jump up at it's absolutely ideal.

The price is a bargain when compared to the purchase of a similar brand new "Gore Tex Jacket". Prompt delivery (ordered on a Friday morning and delivered the following Monday afternoon). Good overall condition - a few minor repairs to the jacket and I had to get the needle and thread out to repair one or two others, but that is to be expected from Grade 1 Army surplus gear. I also used Nikwax to clean and reapply the waterproof coating to the jacket (Pop it into your washing machine with Nikwax cleaner. Once washed put it back into the washing machine and use Nikwax Waterproofing Solution for clothing). The jacket came out like it was brand new!! Really happy with my purchase.

Fantastic ... the jacket looks brand new ... I'm usually a large but ordered a medium and it fits perfectly with room for a few layers (jumpers, etc) underneath.

Great quality coat. Warm, strong zipper. Mine is Grade 1 but it’s as good as new. Very happy.
