Waterproof Jackets

How to choose a waterproof raincoat

If you're getting active outdoors, waterproofs are essential. Along with a reliable pair of trousers, a weatherproof jacket keeps you comfortable when the conditions change. And whether you're dealing with a quick shower or a torrential downpour, you deserve to stay dry!

Here are a few things to bear in mind when you're choosing a rain jacket:

1. Waterproofing – our jackets offer varying levels of protection against the elements. If you'll only be outside in light rain, water-resistant jackets will do. But you'll need something more hard-wearing for mountain hikes and Duke of Edinburgh expeditions.

2. Breathability – the longer you'll be wearing your jacket, the more breathability you'll need. We recommend choosing Gore-Tex waterproof coats for the best balance between waterproof performance and breathability.

3. Design – do you need a waterproof coat with a hood, or would you prefer a stylish rain jacket with a high collar? Think about practical features like pockets and adjustability, which will hugely influence your overall comfort in wet weather.
