“Fast delivery (even during the covid-19 crisis). Great quality 3L gore-tex jacket. Look and smell brand new. I will say it on a par if not better than my recent purchase TNF 1994 mountain jacket. I am 5’9” normal build and size s regular fit me fine with room for an inner light down or fleece jacket for the cold weather. Recommend.”

“I wanted a waterproof to take on a wilderness canoe trip (sadly postponed due to coronavirus). It needs to be tough enough to take days of wild camping and challenging weather. This is just the job. It's a no frills jacket (no arm vents, elasticated cuffs etc) but that keeps the weight and bulk down. At this price I'm not worried if the odd campfire spark lands on it. As yet only worn it in light rain and will probably use a wash-in waterproofer to be sure. Great service from Yvette too!”

“This is the best shell jacket you'll see for the price, extremely tough and well made. Very functional and a steel at the price. Excellent service from shop too.”

“I received what looked like a lightly used jacket. I am normally a size large but a medium fits perfectly with a base layer and a micro fleece underneath. Very good quality construction. Windproof with taped seams, very good hood. I went up Snowdon recently in it, it did bead at first, but after prolonged hard, blustery rain and wind the water got through. I will NikWax it and see if that revitalizes it. I would have given it 5 stars but my friends' jackets seemed to hold out longer than this although in the end we were all soaked through.”

“It's what I was looking for windproof waterproof lightweight. I bought it for fishing and was happy with the condition. Had it out in the rain and wind with a fleece underneath nothing got through. Delivery was top class also.”
