Key Details
| Detail | Product information and buyer relevance |
|---|---|
| Waterproof specification | StormShield technology, a 3000 mm hydrostatic head and fully taped seams are specified for rain protection. An airflow system is also described as supporting breathability; no separate breathability rating is given. |
| Packability | The jacket stows into its own pocket, so it can be carried in a bag or rucksack. |
| Hood and adjustments | The adjustable rollaway hood stores in the collar. A drawcord-adjustable hem and elasticated cuffs provide adjustment at the hem and wrists. |
| Pockets | There are two zipped side pockets with storm flaps. These features do not establish that pocket contents will stay dry in every condition. |
| Listed variant | Purple, UK size 10. The variant information also repeats “Regular”; check the fit and any length details for the selected size. |
What to Compare Before Buying
- Rain protection: Compare the stated 3000 mm hydrostatic head and taped seams with the protection specification you need. The listing gives no separate breathability rating.
- Fit: Check the garment measurements and fit against the layers you expect to wear underneath. The adjustable hem and cuffs do not establish the overall fit.
- Variant: Confirm that purple and UK size 10 are selected, and check what “Regular” refers to in the size details.
- Warmth: No insulation or warmth rating is specified, so do not assume this is a warm winter coat.
Choosing the Correct Version
Check the size and colour for the exact jacket variant. Since “Regular” appears twice in the variant information without distinguishing what each term describes, confirm the fit and any length details before choosing.
Packing It for a Rainy Day
Before carrying the jacket, practise folding it into its own pocket so you know how it packs. Check the fit over the clothing you plan to wear, and keep the packed jacket accessible if you expect to need it during a walk or journey. Follow the garment’s care instructions when available.
Before You Decide
Confirm the UK 10 fit, purple colour and 3000 mm hydrostatic head. Check the meaning of “Regular” in the selected size details, and consider whether the stated rain protection and lack of a specified warmth rating suit your needs.
