Like the look of this. I use a standard waterproof jacket as a shell; up on my recent camping video (which you watched, thank you!) I had to have this over my down jacket. I had saved the down for the tent in my dry bag but had to get it out to use in combination with the shell; I am always nervous of getting it wet with rain or sweat. This one looks good though
Got two of those jackets in different colours. Great value. They come up small. Unfortunately I have an outdoor gear disorder so also have Paramo , goretex etc. Do you know my 15 year old Berghaus Meera peak still performs the best. Must be the old school coating. I do find the event softer! Good buy! 🎉
I tend to use my revolution race (another good value brand) soft shell most of the year round, just layering up underneath. If it is really grotty I throw my cheap decathlon windproof on underneath just to give a little more water resistance and trap in some more heat. Layering FTW.
A shell jacket is an obsolute necessity here in Canada for outdoors activities , all year long . I may use it alone or as an outer layer to cover a duvet or another intermediate layer. I have one from Arcteryx , with the classic 3 layers Goretex , And one from Showers pass , the Refuge jacket,using a material call Elite as a windproof and rainproof barrier. One or the other is alway's with me . Thanks !
Hi in Canada! I would always have one, too, but tends to be an LW job the rest of the year. We don't have the showers pass brand here. Thanks for commenting 🙂
i have a rab bergen Event a classic hillwalking shell with a wired peak etc.like the pit vents on your fjern 👍 i know what you mean about cinching the hood around your face when beating the harsh winter elements i love it 👌
Sounds like this has held up well then? Seems like a bargain at the price, might go for one when my current winter shell bites the dust. I think Fjern are owned by/affiliated with Sportspursuit, hence why they're always discounted on there, might be wrong though. Great news about the Rothbury Estate too, a lovely part of the world might be about to get even lovelier. Happy days. Cheers for all the videos.
I got fjern down jacket sure was 85 ment be 250 which I can't see tbh,but it's great warm well made quality garment might try the shell looks heavy duty just got a keela munro for winter but another won't hurt 😂
@garyvause2475 😆. Hahahaha! I think they make them that length to be 'harness' compatible. I get your point though, a long coat that covers your 'nethers' is right cosy.

@jozefdoran7236 you are welcome my friend. You are right about fjern and sportspursuit being owned by the same holding group.
