Waterproof Jackets and Windproof Jackets
Technical. Ethical. Sustainable. Your outer-layer is your primary defence against the elements. Our performance clothing protects in all weathers. Our waterproof jackets are highly waterproof and highly breathable for an active outdoor life. Similarly, our windproof jackets provide protection and comfort while maintaining high breathability
Waterproof Jackets and Windproof Jackets
We live in a small country surrounded by water so we're well used to rain, wind, sunshine and showers. All in one day.
Stay warm, dry and protected from the buffeting elements whether trail running fast & light, on multi-day trips or Scottish winter mountaineering.
Your outer-layer is your first defence against the elements. Our waterproof clothing protects in all weathers and is highly waterproof and highly breathable for an active outdoor life. Our windproof and softshell jackets bridge the gap between fleece and hardshell waterproofs.
Choose responsibly, it's a lifelong decision
All our waterproofs are free from PFC's so you don't leave a trail of persistent chemicals and made with no-compromise recycled materials by factories with high social and environmental standards. When cared for they are durable to last a lifetime.
