Can anyone recommend a good brand and or 3-in-1 type waterproof jacket?
I've noticed everyone wearing The North Face and apparently Berghaus has gone downhill.
I bought a Mountain Warehouse jacket a few years ago for around £110 and it didn't take long for the zips to break, etc.

Mountain warehouse is budget and I wouldn't rely on it for anything more than a brief shower.
Rab, Montaine are great if they have pertex/goretex membranes. My no. 1 has to be mountain equipment. So breathable and a great fit. Had it years.
Good waterproofs are worth spending money on imo"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51547859","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"sane4sure"},"datePublished":"2023-11-23T21:39:13.000Z","text":"Keela Munro - job done!
Alternatively, look for a good condition, used Berghaus Mera Peak.
Wash with Nikwax Tech Wash and reproof with Nikwax TX Direct and you'll be good to go!"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51548144","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Russ2626"},"datePublished":"2023-11-23T21:56:23.000Z","text":"I've had a Berghaus gore-tex jacket for a few years and it's the best waterproof coat I've had"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51546359","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Shure"},"datePublished":"2023-11-23T20:00:15.000Z","text":"I don't think you can go far wrong with paramo-clothing.com/en-gb/
If you are looking for more mainstream brands then I've been happy with Montane and RAB in the past"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51547140","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Sketchel"},"datePublished":"2023-11-23T20:52:12.000Z","text":"I bought one from cotton traders and it's been fab"},{"@type":"Comment","@id":"https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/51583374","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"tek-monkey"},"datePublished":"2023-11-26T11:31:29.000Z","text":"If you actually plan on walking, and I don't just mean in town, then get a shell with pit zips. Go for a dedicated hardshell, forget insulation completely and go for a proper mid layer for that, but if you're warm inside that moisture has to go somewhere and no matter how breathable they say they are nothing beats pit zips for getting rid of excess."}],"commentCount":19,"interactionStatistic":11,"articleSection":"Ask"}
