Hunting rain gear - How to choose the right one

Rain gear for hunting

Waterproof hunting gear, typical rain gear or poncho - what to wear? 

It all depends on your previous wardrobe selection and other requirements you may have for the purchase. Here we'll go through a few options with different specifications and in varying price ranges. 

Impersoft - Classic raincoat in galon 

Raincoat Hunting Men Women

Simple, classic, and exactly what you see and expect from a galloon raincoat. These products hold tight and do the job for many years to come. One of the disadvantages of galon is probably mainly that it does not breathe and can risk getting a little hot. But in certain situations where it is between soaking wet and a little warm, I at least know what I choose. The products are unisex and the jacket can also be chosen in both long and short models. These are products that you can relatively easily pull over your other hunting clothes and have with you as a small emergency kit if the weather suddenly changes. Total price for the Impersoft Long hunting rack: 1090 SEK. Price for the stand with the shorter version: 990 SEK.

Green King II 

Green King Raincoat Hunting

 Green King Hunting Stand

Very similar to the one above, but in a much more luxurious and durable quality. Among other things, the fabric has an EN343 certification, which means that it has been tested to function as protective clothing in heavy snowfall, rain or ground moisture. The fabric is made of polyester ripstop, which makes it more durable and extra resistant to any external stresses. The trousers also have reinforcements of Cordura, which is a world-renowned material that is often found in various types of protective clothing. The jacket has six pockets and the pants two, which also differs from the rack above. Complete price for the rack: 2090 SEK

Percussion Poncho

Poncho hunting

From our French partners at Percussion, we have two different ponchos in unisex. Do you want the orange camouflage or a classic, simple dark green? We have them both. They are spacious and with a hood and in the front they have a large so-called kangaroo pocket. The green one costs 185 SEK and the orange one 245 SEK.

Hawker Advance - Hunting stand for women

From Danish Seeland comes this waterproof hunting gear for women that will keep you dry and mobile throughout the day. Both jacket and pants have their built-in Seextex membrane in them and all seams are also taped. This is as stylish as it is functional for the active hunter and outdoorswoman. The entire rack is full of well-crafted details and the Super Flex stretch of the fabric allows you to move easily and unhindered in all different terrains. Price for the complete rack: 3790 SEK.

Härkila Moose Hunter 2.0

Härkila Moose Hunter 2.0 hunting gear 

A hunting jacket so good and well-developed that we can't help but include it, even if it's not specifically designed as a rain jacket. Härkila has by now become internationally recognized for its unbeatable products that are both functional and durable. Moose Hunter 2.0 is definitely not just for the moose hunter, but for anyone who is looking for first-class products where nothing is skimped on. Mossy Oak Break Up is the name of the three-dimensional and specially developed camouflage used, where, among other things, the orange signal color is changed to red. This is because deer do not perceive any difference between green, red and brown in contrast. This, together with the extremely quiet material, allows you to get very close to the animal without being seen or heard. We're talking two layers of Gore-Tex and a DWR treatment (Durable water repellent) so that you who go moose hunting regardless of the weather do not have to take it into account. Price for jacket and pants: 11 490 SEK.

In addition to these options, we have a range of other garments and complete sets that can withstand quite substantial amounts of rain and storms. However, they may not all be specifically classed as 'rain gear' so we'll leave them out here. But, if you want a waterproof tweed hunting jacket, we have it for both men and women from Alan Paine and the Combrook collection. The jackets in the Combrook collection are tested to withstand around 7 hours in heavy rain. You can also check out our tab "Waterproof hunting jackets" and there will be several good options and different parts you can combine for the complete waterproof rain gear.
