In short
Good for
- Budget everyday waterproof for dog walks, valley walks and low-level hillwalking
Strengths
- Outer storm flap over the zip with an inner zip guard, drawcord hem and stud cuff adjusters (Blacks and GO Outdoors listings; Craghoppers' page doesn't list them)
- Hood with drawcords at the front and back
- Zipped security pocket (Craghoppers); Blacks and GO Outdoors list two zipped lower pockets and a zipped inner pocket as well
- Shell is 100% recycled polyester (Craghoppers), with a water-repellent finish that Blacks and GO Outdoors call plant-based
Weaknesses
- 575 g is heavy for a shell (470-649 g band), and the size isn't stated
- Craghoppers' own page doesn't say the seams are taped; only Millets' listing says 'fully taped seams'
- No pit zips listed
- Grown-on hood: no peak or helmet fit is described
- No independent review found, so weather protection and durability are estimates, not reviewed scores
- Craghoppers' page is the National Trust Collection Dark Sage colour; Blacks and GO Outdoors sell the same specs in Khaki
