HIGHLANDER LEWIS JACKET £100
A trusty synthetic puffer is a great addition to any hillwalker’s winter kit. This jacket is a prime example: warm, lightweight, versatile and good value, with a great fit, fleecy hand pockets, cosy fill and a decent hood. The high-tenacity nylon face fabric should outlast cheaper polyester rivals too.
VERDICT A no-nonsense, hard-wearing and hill-ready synthetic insulated jacket that works well in variable conditions. Available for both men and women, it’s the ideal extra layer for winter hill days.
