Marmot Alpinist 2011

£400.00

At £400 the Marmot Alpinist is definitely a considered purchase, as it has the highest price tag of those jackets featured, but if you can ignore the price for a moment, then there are some good features.

Haglöfs Cirque 2010

£380.00

Haglöfs is a Swedish brand but the Cirque is designed for the British market. So it has the sort of features that allow it to stand up to yomping up Scottish Munros in all weathers.

Mountain Hardwear Caraballo 2009

£320.00

The Mountain Hardwear Caraballo is definitely one of the best here if you prefer a slightly shorter design. The jacket is made from Gore-Tex Pro Shell fabric, so it benefits from top-of-the-league performance. At 538g the weight is very good and the features are equally attractive. Firstly the main zip gets a double stormflap on the outside to keep the ...

The Marmot Troll Wall is a new jacket that is perfectly designed for the more adventurous UK mountain walker who wants one jacket that does it all. Most importantly it is made from Gore-Tex Pro Shell, so it is top of the league for waterproofness and breathability. It is also reasonably lightweight. Best of all though you get a proper ...
