Torren is an award-winning jacket, and for good reason. There&#8217;s a lot of great stuff here, and the design is pleasantly light and comfortable to wear. This is enough skill for adventures at altitude, but doesn&#8217;t feel excessive when walking your dog. Torren&#8217;s recycled nylon shell is highly water-resistant without the use of harmful chemicals. This is something every outdoor clothing manufacturer should strive to achieve.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;30aa3c30-b66c-4c30-a853-ab1cbd6e3626&#8243;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why We Love It<br \/><\/strong>The Torren is actually so water resistant that it kept me out of the rain all day when I was out in the wet and windy Storm Ashley last October. Montane uses their own brand of Petrichor technology to waterproof this coating, but it appears to be superior when compared to Gore-Tex and does not use Pfa, which is harmful to the environment.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;1e94f1e2-3216-4487-8b5d-9efb1ab0c9e7&#8243;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Torren is ready for dangerous days outdoors thanks to a helmet-compatible hood, harness-compatible pockets, and articulated arms that provide a variety of movements. But it&#8217;s simple enough to use for comfortable hiking as well, and while it fits on the slim side, you can attach a thinner insulated jacket underneath it. It&#8217;s difficult to pick holes in the design, but if push comes to shove, the problem is that the only colors available other than plain black are pastels.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;935b231f-743d-4b9b-9e5e-e7da66f9362b&#8221;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>It&#8217;s

no need to spend a lot of money on a technical shell if all you want is a reliable waterproof jacket for dog walking, school runs, and weekend walks. In that context, Craghoppers Caldbeck II is ideal. This is a practical, full-length jacket with a well-fitting hood and a waterproof membrane that protects against showers.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;7e71219e-3716-4034-b936-17be6a09b06e&#8221;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why We Love It<br \/><\/strong>Craghoppers&#8217; AquaDry membrane proved its worth in testing, shrugging off the rain on the Caldbeck II during our outing. However, keep in mind that this performance may decrease over time and therefore requires a rebuke. Elsewhere, the fabric has a bit of stretch, the fit is comfortable without feeling boxy, and there&#8217;s room for layering underneath for cold days. The main fabric and lining are made from recycled polyester, and the deep pockets are great for storing your phone or keeping your hands warm.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;25aa0dd1-0b73-445c-a6a9-89de7845e1e6&#8243;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>At the time of writing this jacket&#8217;s RRP of \u00a3160 has been reduced to between \u00a348 and \u00a380 depending on the colour, but it still remains good value even considering the list price.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;9c857daa-8e86-4a7a-817e-b2727f885c1b&#8221;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>That&#8217;s a shame<\/strong> \u2026 The biggest discounts are limited to specific colors.

However, doing so does not reduce performance. It&#8217;s waterproof so rain falls off the material like it&#8217;s off a duck&#8217;s back. I also evaluated the fit of the Beta AR, which is streamlined but has room for layers underneath.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;e25e56c9-776e-4a03-a2fd-36e116a3f55d&#8221;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>From the helmet-compatible hood to the waterproof zippers, every detail has been carefully thought out, the quality is excellent, and it looks comfortable to wear. The women&#8217;s version of this jacket also comes with an adjustable waist and wrists. I wore the Beta AR in windy, wet, and cold weather and it kept me dry all day, never feeling wet or hot even with layers of clothing underneath. Yes, the Beta AR is expensive, but it will keep you comfortable on everything from mountain missions to pub walks.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;36c4a00c-db1c-4ac6-9276-8aa5f35a193b&#8221;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>It&#8217;s a shame&#8230;<\/strong> It&#8217;s definitely expensive.

climbing and mountaineering brand Rab designed the Latok Pro for instances where \u201cbreathability, durability and protection are needed in equal measure.\u201d If you love hiking hills and dales in any weather, this jacket combines comfort and a women&#8217;s-specific fit with rain-resistant Gore-Tex in a stylish design.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;901cd61e-3ed2-476c-9f9d-c7f596131fbf&#8221;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why We Love It<\/strong><br \/>\\n I&#8217;ve had a lot of fun hiking on the Latok Pro. Gore-Tex has always been a reliable waterproofing technology and Latok has a hydrostatic head rating of 28,000mm. This prevented a single drop of rain seeping in while hiking in the Lake District&#8217;s consistently wet weather. The hood was also my favorite product in the test. The hood stayed in place even in strong winds, and the stiff brim kept the rain from hitting my face. Despite its weatherproof punch and Recco reflectors (which use a special radar detector to enable search by professional rescue teams), the Latok Pro is lightweight at just 366g, making it comfortable to wear all day and fitting well inside a backpack.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;,&#8221;elementId&#8221;:&#8221;25a1ef17-0546-4218-b87a-c9b530f80015&#8243;},{&quot;_type&#8221;:&#8221;model.dotcomrendering.pageElements.TextBlockElement&#8221;,&#8221;html&#8221;:&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>It&#8217;s

I&#8217;ve hiked miles in the name of testing waterproof jackets. I think I&#8217;ve tried over 100 different raincoats, wearing them everywhere from the top of Mount Kenya to my favorite local trails in Cornwall and the Cotswolds. I&#8217;ve also just finished working on two UK walking guides for Lonely Planet.

I&#8217;ve taken every recommended jacket on hikes around the country, from the top of Stickle Tarn in the Lake District to the sea-splashy coast of Cornwall. The mild weather also gave us the opportunity to test another key feature of good waterproofing: breathability, on muddy trails and city streets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">The new jackets requested for testing in this article were donated to the Julian Trust Night Shelter in Bristol.

There&#8217;s a lot of great stuff here, and the design is pleasantly light and comfortable to wear. This is enough skill for adventures at altitude, but doesn&#8217;t feel excessive when walking your dog. Torren&#8217;s recycled nylon shell is highly water-resistant without the use of harmful chemicals. This is something every outdoor clothing manufacturer should strive to achieve.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Why We Love It<br \/><\/strong>The Torren is actually so water resistant that it kept me out of the rain all day when I was out in the wet and windy Storm Ashley last October. Montane uses their own brand of Petrichor technology to waterproof this coating, but it appears to be superior when compared to Gore-Tex and does not use Pfa, which is harmful to the environment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Torren is ready for dangerous days outdoors thanks to a helmet-compatible hood, harness-compatible pockets, and articulated arms that provide a variety of movements. But it&#8217;s simple enough to use for comfortable hiking as well, and while it fits on the slim side, you can attach a thinner insulated jacket underneath it. It&#8217;s difficult to pick holes in the design, but if push comes to shove, the problem is that the only colors available other than plain black are pastels.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>It&#8217;s a shame&#8230;

In that context, Craghoppers Caldbeck II is ideal. This is a practical, full-length jacket with a well-fitting hood and a waterproof membrane that protects against showers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Why We Love It<br \/><\/strong>Craghoppers&#8217; AquaDry membrane proved its worth in testing, shrugging off the rain on the Caldbeck II during our outing. However, keep in mind that this performance may decrease over time and therefore requires a rebuke. Elsewhere, the fabric has a bit of stretch, the fit is comfortable without feeling boxy, and there&#8217;s room for layering underneath for cold days. The main fabric and lining are made from recycled polyester, and the deep pockets are great for storing your phone or keeping your hands warm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">At the time of writing this jacket&#8217;s RRP of \u00a3160 has been reduced to between \u00a348 and \u00a380 depending on the colour, but it still remains good value even considering the list price.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>That&#8217;s a shame<\/strong> \u2026 The biggest discounts are limited to specific colors.

The upgraded Beta Jacket uses Gore-Tex Pro to provide serious weather protection for hikers, skiers, and mountaineers alike while remaining breathable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Why We Love It<br \/><\/strong>Gore-Tex&#8217;s Pro Waterproof material is PFC-free, meaning it doesn&#8217;t use chemicals that are harmful to the environment. However, doing so does not reduce performance. It&#8217;s waterproof so rain falls off the material like it&#8217;s off a duck&#8217;s back. I also evaluated the fit of the Beta AR, which is streamlined but has room for layers underneath.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">From the helmet-compatible hood to the waterproof zippers, every detail has been carefully thought out, the quality is excellent, and it looks comfortable to wear. The women&#8217;s version of this jacket also comes with an adjustable waist and wrists. I wore the Beta AR in windy, wet, and cold weather and it kept me dry all day, never feeling wet or hot even with layers of clothing underneath. Yes, the Beta AR is expensive, but it will keep you comfortable on everything from mountain missions to pub walks.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>It&#8217;s a shame&#8230;<\/strong> It&#8217;s definitely expensive.

needed in equal measure.\u201d If you love hiking hills and dales in any weather, this jacket combines comfort and a women&#8217;s-specific fit with rain-resistant Gore-Tex in a stylish design.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Why We Love It<\/strong><br \/>I have had many happy hikes on the Latok Pro. Gore-Tex has always been a reliable waterproofing technology and Latok has a hydrostatic head rating of 28,000mm. This prevented a single drop of rain seeping in while hiking in the Lake District&#8217;s consistently wet weather. The hood was also my favorite product in the test. The hood stayed in place even in strong winds, and the stiff brim kept the rain from hitting my face.

The Hagl\u00f6fs Front Proof is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it ideal for exploring under changeable skies as you put on and take off your waterproof layer every time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Why We Love It<\/strong><br \/>I&#8217;ve always evaluated Hagl\u00f6fs&#8217; outdoor kit and the Front Proof did not disappoint. First, it was so light that I barely felt I was wearing it. Plus, I was able to quickly pack it up and put it in my backpack once the rain stopped.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">This design uses Hagl\u00f6fs&#8217; own brand Proof technology rather than a Gore-Tex membrane, but is extremely resistant to constant rain and wind. It&#8217;s not as breathable as a premium Gore-Tex shell, so it may feel a little warm when walking uphill. The minimalist design also means there are no features like fit zippers or chest pockets. However, considering its \u00a3140 price, weight and portability, the Front Proof is a great all-rounder for unpredictable weather.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>It&#8217;s a

class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Swedish brand Kl\u00e4ttermusen has been making mountaineering gear since 1975, and if you want a hiking jacket that can also be worn for winter sports, the all-season Allgron 2.0 is perfect for you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Why We Love It<\/strong><br \/>Some high-end waterproofs do a great job of keeping the rain out, but they feel like plastic, are stiff, and can rustle loudly every time you walk. Allgron 2.0 from Kl\u00e4ttermusen is soft and flexible to the touch and does not scratch the skin. Cut slightly longer than other jackets I&#8217;ve tested, this jacket covers more of the hips and keeps the lower body warm and dry. It sits well under the backpack without moving or burning.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">There are many technical features here. It&#8217;s fully waterproof, has great pockets and ventilation zippers, and has built-in Recco reflectors for snow sports. I preferred the adjustable velcro on the wrists rather than the fussy bungees, but overall, of all the jackets I tested for comfort and women&#8217;s fit, this was my favorite.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>It&#8217;s a shame&#8230;<\/strong> It&#8217;s painfully expensive, and I wear a bungee word on my wrist.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>ingredient:<\/strong>

A mountain-specific design, including a helmet-compatible hood, large chest pocket (accessible even while wearing a harness), and ventilation zippers, makes this product suitable for tough days on the slopes while still being stylish enough to wear in a resort town.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">At \u00a3480, the Roc Blanc Gen 4 is an investment piece, but it holds its own as one of the best ski jackets for performance, durability and comfort in harsh alpine environments.

It has waterproof function. When it rains, it falls right off the surface, while the warm down filling quickly traps body heat and keeps you warm. A good hood protects your head and face. It has snug-fitting, fleece-lined pockets to keep your hands warm.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">This coat is not breathable, so it&#8217;s not suitable for hiking or cycling, but it&#8217;s excellent for frosty dog \u200b\u200bwalks, mild winter walks or rainy school runs. Please choose your usual size. There is space for layering underneath.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><strong>Because it didn&#8217;t appear in the final cut&#8230;<\/strong> They are not breathable, so you can&#8217;t do anything

For complete waterproofing, look for a jacket that integrates proven technology, such as Gore-Tex or private brand waterproofing, into the jacket&#8217;s outer layer (or hardshell).<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Some brands also list the level of waterproofing their jacket offers, which is tested against hydrostatic head (this test evaluates the waterproofing ability of the fabric by applying increasing water pressure). It is only considered waterproof up to 1,500 mm. Anything over 5,000mm will be sufficiently waterproof for sustained rain, while a jacket between 10,000mm and 20,000mm will likely work in heavy rain or snow.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"breathability\" class=\"dcr-n4qeq9\"><strong>breathable<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Inexpensive, sporty mac-insocks and rain ponchos will keep you dry when you need them, but they&#8217;re not breathable. They&#8217;re not ideal for hiking or biking because they make you sweat and get hot quickly. Instead, high-quality jackets contain a breathable membrane that wicks moisture so you don&#8217;t overheat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">Before you buy, think about how and where you will wear the jacket. For casual use, a long parka length jacket with some insulation will provide warmth. If you&#8217;re planning on going on a fast-paced hike or cycle, you&#8217;ll want something that&#8217;s lightweight, breathable, has no insulation, and has added ventilation zippers.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"design-and-fit\" class=\"dcr-n4qeq9\"><strong>design and fit<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">A good jacket should fit snugly but not too tight around the waist, cuffs or neck. It should include taped seams, sealed or protected zippers, zippered pockets, and a well-designed, adjustable hood. If you&#8217;re an avid hiker, cyclist or climber, look for a jacket with a hood that can be worn over a helmet and a fit designed to be worn under a backpack and harness. A slim fit jacket will keep you warm. But in cold weather, make sure you have room underneath for a down layer or fleece layer.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"how-much-to-spend\" class=\"dcr-n4qeq9\"><strong>amount spent<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">There are rain-ready jackets at prices to suit almost every budget. Aim to spend around \u00a3150 on a good, versatile waterproof product. A premium \u00a3200+ jacket is only worth splurging on if you&#8217;re going to find yourself in a serious situation on a proper hiking trip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\">It&#8217;s worth noting that no jacket can be completely waterproof forever, unless it&#8217;s a pure plastic mac with no breathability. If your coat begins to lose its water resistance (rain doesn&#8217;t just bead off but soaks into the outer layer), re-waterproof it with a treatment such as Nikwax.<\/p>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><em><strong>For more information, read the best umbrellas that won&#8217;t get you wet in the wind and rain and the best walking boots for women.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<hr class=\"dcr-z9ge1j\"\/>\n<p class=\"dcr-130mj7b\"><em>Sian Lewis has won awards. <\/em><em>Outdoor and travel journalist and author who loves to put things through their paces through adventure kit. <\/em><em>Hiking, swimming, wild camping.
