Lowe Alpine Paradigm

£80.00

Plenty of stretch in the fabric, but the drawcord/elasticated waist isn’t as comfy or practical as the button designs of some. Great wind and water resistance makes them perfect for cooler weather or high mountain use, and the stretchy fabric allows easy movement. A good compromise warmth-wise.  VITAL STATSColours: Black, gunmetalSizes: 28-38in waist (31-35_in inside leg)Fabric: StormweaveWeight: 510gWomen’s version: YesContact: ...

Lowe Alpine Wildcat

£100.00

Easy enough to move around in for such a well-insulated jacket. The fleece-lined collar was lovely and snug, but it was let down by tight cuffs that wouldn’t pull up to spill heat. Has a mix of windproof/waterproof fabric in the body and more breathable, less weatherproof fabric under the arms. As such it works well, but noticeably less breathable ...

£270.00

Designed specifically for Alpinism, the Lowe Alpine Climb Pro winter jacket packs down to just 560g so you won’t mind carrying it in your rucksack or wearing it while climbing. It’s built with Gore-Tex Pro Shell, so it is about as good as it gets for condensation control. You get a pair of large chest pockets that can be easily ...

Lowe Alpine Chamonix 2008

£220.00

The Lowe Alpine Chamonix is the sort of general-purpose jacket that many people want as it is comfortable, practical and you can throw it on and forget about it. It is built around 2-layer Gore-Tex Pro Shell, which is superb in terms of breathability and waterproofness while the mesh lining adds welcome comfort. It’s built for wild weather too with ...

Lowe Alpine Climb Pro

£260.00

This is a new winter jacket built around Gore’s new fabric, so it is about as good as it gets for condensation control. At just 522g (men’s size L) this is very lightweight but it has the most important features for a day on the hill too. So you get a pair of large chest pockets that can be easily ...

Lowe Alpine Multi Pitch

£80.00

This is a very practical soft shell jacket, being reasonably lightweight, stretchy and able to fend off wind and water. Most importantly of all it is also extremely breathable, so you can wear it under a waterproof when the storm clouds roll in. It is lighter and lower in price than some similar products too. The fabric is quite thin, ...

Lowe Alpine Arctic Trail

£100.00

This windproof fleece from Lowe Alpine is a superb fit, and the snug, high collar is good. The cuffs work well, using the stretch in the fabric to pull up and down, although some elastic would be better. The cosy feel of the Aleutian Windshield fabric is good, too. Warm, windproof with good breathability when you’re working hard. Mesh-lined pockets ...

Lowe Alpine Rockwell

£160.00

This waterproof jacket from Lowe Alpine might be fractionally on the large side, but has plenty of adjustment to compensate. It’s a longer cut, which will definitely suit some, and the feel of the fabric is wonderful – not a rustle or crackle in sight. The mesh lining ensures it feels comfortable worn over a base layer, and the fleece-lined ...

Lowe Alpine Deluge

£100.00

This waterproof jacket from Lowe Alpine is now made from a lighter Triplepoint fabric, which is very comfortable to wear, even over a base layer. However, it does rustle as you walk. The overall fit is excellent too. It’s quite a long cut and looser than some, but there’s plenty of adjustment at the hem and cuffs and the hood ...

Lowe Alpine Multi Pitch Jacket

£80.00

This soft shell jacket from Lowe Alpine is a tight fit, making it very warm. However, the fabric is extremely stretchy, so it’s not at all restrictive. Adjustment is good too, with drawcords at the hem and collar. The Multi Pitch is both warm and comfortable, yet breathes well and keeps a fair amount of rain out when needed. The ...

Lowe Alpine Eclipse Jacket

£60.00

This midweight fleece from Lowe Alpine boasts good length arms and a high and snug-fitting collar. The fabric feels wonderfully luxurious. Elasticated cuffs would be better than plain fleece, but it’s warm and cosy, and light and compact enough to carry in a rucksack. The handwarmer pockets are well positioned and there’s room for a map.
