What to Compare Before Buying
The stated membrane ratings are 10,000 mm hydrostatic head and 10,000 g/m²/24 hours breathability. Compare these figures with the conditions and requirements you have in mind; the ratings alone do not establish suitability for every type of weather or activity. The water repellent finish is an additional stated feature, not a substitute for checking the jacket’s ratings against your needs.
Check that the model code, colour and size match the version you intend to select. No garment measurements are given here, so use the sizing information for the exact version to assess fit, particularly if you plan to wear layers underneath.
Compatibility, Size and Fit
This is a men’s jacket in the listed XL size. The hood can be detached, and its adjusters and inbuilt snood are features of the hood. Check the selected version’s fit details and consider whether you want to wear the jacket with the hood attached.
Plan Pocket and Hood Use
Before heading out for a walk, consider which small items you want to keep in the two lower pockets and chest pocket, and whether you prefer the hood attached. The underarm ventilation zips are another feature to factor into your clothing choice for the outing.
Before You Decide
Confirm the RML257 model, Blue/Navy colour and XL size. Check the exact version’s fit information, then compare the stated membrane ratings and hood arrangement with your intended use.
