Watersomething, Premium and comfortable - so far

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 June 2019

Size Name: LColour Name: Dark NavyVerified Purchase

The problem with writing reviews, is that often you never have the product for long enough. These are my thoughts after about a month.

So I bought the coat for weather exactly like we have seen for the last few weeks - c20 degrees C and some pretty heavy rain showers. It says it’s not waterproof so I don’t expect it to be. I’ve been caught out a few times in heavy showers (once in Waitrose car park and the other coming home from the pub - so it’s well tested!!) but so far the water has beaded and I haven’t got wet. I would say it’s exceeded expectations in that regard.

What I like most about this coat compared with say my Barbour or my old beghaus is that it has the feel of a cotton jacket. It feels breathable. It feels quite premium actually. It’s just comfortable to be in.

The hood is cavernous but adjustable and the pockets are easily accessible and well placed.

So I’m pleased with it. Certainly so far. And since water proofing is done with a block of wax and is “adjustable” to suit (I think it will take a bit of trial and error) but it should be easy to reproof to the level I like.

Cheers

Nothing wrong with it if they made it waterproof. Very pretty.

Quite difficult to review this. Fjallraven are from a magical land where winter coats don't need to be waterproof because magical Northeuropia has mostly snow. So they don't make them waterproof. You can, if you wish pay £10 for a wax bar and do it yourself. It will then be slightly less wet but still not waterproof. It's very nice, in the way of these things although the fat people amongst us struggle to fit my ample gut Into it. So to recap: really nice anorak which is not windproof or waterproof but looks pretty. And it's not olive, it's brown.

Perfect mix of bethability and weather protection.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 6 September 2019

Size Name: XLColour Name: Dark NavyVerified Purchase

I've purchased other Fjallraven products before so sized up and so this fitted perfectly for me.

Used the jacket now for about a month including walking, camping and day to day.

This is not a wind blocker but that's ideal as it's the first walking jacket that actually doesn't result in me over heating beacue this thing breaths.

It's better than the Arc'teryx alpha Ar jacket and the OR hellium in terms of breathability. (Both are great jackets) that I have owned and used in the past.

Yes it's not completely water proof, although because of the g1000 fabric you can wax it quickly and easily to increase rain and wind protection and all you need is wax and a iron.

However I've used this in the UK in some heavy showers and it's kept me mostly dry without any extra wax, as we move into the autrum I've waxed the hood and top side of the arms for more protection and for that reason it's better then other jackets...

I don't need my armpits to be water proof, I need my shoulders to be water proof and it's easy to keep the best of both and increase or decrease the water proof to bethability ratio than any other jacket I've tried.

100% recommend this jacket.

Great jacket and true to size - purchase the wax too

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 25 March 2021

Size Name: LColour Name: Dark NavyVerified Purchase

I purchased a Large as a natural medium based on other reviews and so I can layer up underneath. This was the right choice...
Admittedly I've packed on a few lbs over the lockdown and winter so was cautious about new purchases which didn't help.
I've lost some of those lbs now and the jacket is still a good fit - length too and I'm looking forward to the spring and removing some layers also.
The quality of materials, zips, toggles, poppers are excellent; very much like my Paramo gear.
The material seems thin but this is not an issue as in a stiff cold breeze it's doing the trick of blocking the cold out.
Only one down side is the leather zip ends as they have an unfinished back the leather bits come off on the jacket which is a slight niggle...
Fit is good too, hood is large so another hoodie can be worn underneath.
I've used the recommended was block and it's easy to use and apply. Haven't worn out in the rain as yet but as this is the UK there'll be plenty of opportunities!!!
From reading other reviews I suspect reapplications of wax will be required but no worries it's all trial and error in the beginning.
Lastly to add it's a pretty cool jacket and is great around the town, trail or hills.
Will update again very soon when caught in the rain!!

Fjallraven WTF

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 9 January 2019

Size Name: LColour Name: Dark GreyVerified Purchase

well i couldnt imagine that the jacket will be THIS THIN but it is great. I dont find it so windproof as the others say but in every other situation is so good. It can protect you in moderate rains and it dries really fast. I am wearing it with a good fleece inside and i was in zero temperature also...not so bad.
The greatest thing about it is that its feel! It feels SO premium and good looking. Also it is SO light for everyday wearing. It breaths so nice too. After long walks on vacations i never feel sweaty. The pockets are very helpfull too as i traveled a lot with it.
Overall excellent product that feels premium and so durable!

Excellent design and light

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 11 December 2018

Size Name: LColour Name: Dark NavyVerified Purchase

Love it! It's light, which is perfect for me to put layers under when needed! It has brilliantly designed pockets and a good size good with a peak.
Useful that it can unzip from the bottom for cycling if needed.
Plenty of different style pockets for safe-keeping of valuables like key fobs, keys, devices, and money.
I haven't been caught in a downpour yet, but I have the wax to hand to properly wax it, so I'm ready.

Note to purchasers when it comes to sizing I found the arms really good length but the hip was narrow and snug fit so go for a size up if you have any sort of belly to accommodate!

Really pleased. My last fjallraven lasted many years of good service and well worth the money.

Excellent jacket...very useable, stylish and fits perfectly

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 July 2020

Size Name: LColour Name: Dark GreyVerified Purchase

Great jacket. Lightweight and very comfortable fit. Lovely colour and very usable. I have many jackets for different uses however I needed a good all round jacket that wasn’t too warm as I wanted to layer up. Not really tested it fully but in light rainy conditions it’s ideal...great hood! Plenty of pockets and very adjustable to suit the individual.

Will get round to waterproofing at some point however personally for my use I don’t feel it entirely necessary. Fit was great...I purchased a large and I’m about 82kg and 5’11”.

Overall I love it plus the price was very Competitive.

Definitely recommend this product.
