Windcheater Jacket
Often thought of as a utility jacket, ideal for stuffing under the car seat until it’s needed in a snow drift, or simply for walking the dog. However, wear a Mountain Shirt under it and you have a jacket that will keep all the elements out and keep you warm and dry.

My most favourite item of outdoor kit – I have one in red, black, and green!
So much more practical than the over-the-head 6, but every bit as warm and rain proof.
Equally lightweight, but easier to ventilate with a full length zip.
A world leader up in the mountains but smart enough for around town. Length is just enough to keep bum and hips dry but not a hindrance when walking distance.
I never understand why this is not retailed as Buffalo’s main product.
Highly Recommended!
Boring in a good way: you pull it on and it’s comfy, keeps the weather out and the warmth in and that’s mostly it.
I find the length right for my liking, with less weight, bulk and drag than the Mountain Jacket and keeps your bum and thighs (and pants) usefully warmer and drier than the Belay or Alpine. It’s sized as an over-layer, so my 40 Windcheater fits nicely over my 40 Special 6 or Active Lite (or a conventional layering system, or just everyday clothes) so no need to up-size to wear it over things.
Would be nice to have a brighter colour option than the murk or stealth available, and I think closed-loop side adjustment works better for a hem cord than open-ended dangle-at-the-front, but these are nits to pick on a functionally excellent bit of kit.
