Men's Hillwalker Interactive Gore-Tex Waterproof Shell Jacket

I bought this for working outdoors in Ireland. Kept me bone dry on two twelve hour shifts of torrential rain. Would recommend to anyone based on that alone. It's light and comfortable. Quality stuff.

I have been looking for a good waterproof jacket. Not one for bright garish colours or logos this all black Berghaus Jacket is perfect. I went for a large and the size was fine more. I often find sleeves are too short but they are just right. I particularly wanted a roll away hood as I generally wear a waxed hat or Tilley hat. Wore it out in a major downpour and was really impressed with the way the water just beads up and drops off. Only thing is that means the water drops straight onto your trousers. I feel a purchase of matching hillwalker trousers coming soon. Wore it again today and was really impressed with the wind proof performance too. For this price I don’t think you can go wrong. It will be interesting to see how long it lasts but very happy with my purchase. I also ordered a Berghaus Gilet with the same interactive zip as an extra layer for colder days. There is a full zip fleece or the filet and both seem to work really well inside this jacket.

4 stars because not enough fixing points in jacket for interactive fleece inner. Arms in particular would benefit from extra fixation point to keep in place.

Have left reviews before love the brand, and coats do all that is claimed. reccomend

Can't beat this for the price. Yes, I would like pit zips for extra venting and a waist cord to stop material flapping in the wind, but if you are compromising on price then they have concentrated on the right areas and that is the quality of the fabric, zips and manufacturing. Super ripstop Goretex material.

I was originally going to get the paclite 2, as I was after a gore-tex lightweight and wind / waterproof jacket, but some of the reviews on the paclite said it had let water in after some time, so after some research I chose this one.I was a bit worried from the photos that this jacket would be too bulky as I wanted something light enough for bike riding, but was surprised how light it is. I only received it today but tried it outside a couple of times in freezing weather with just a shirt on underneath and it's very warm and completely blocks the wind.I haven't tried it in the rain yet but I'm actually looking forward to it raining now to see how well it performs, which I'm sure will be great.The side pockets are a decent size and comfortable to put your hands in, and it has a single pocket inside again of decent size for most stuff you'd use it for (could fit a phone and power bank + cable in etc).Would recommend it to anyone looking for a light warm weatherproof jacket.

this is surprisingly lightweight, but breathable waterproof and wind proof - with just a light weight fleece ,its handled everything the winter has come up with so far, including some reasonably exposed moorland walks in the peak district. The black colour was £50 less than all others - bizarre but great bargain for a goretex jacket!

Used for walking in
