Women’s Waterproof Jackets & Coats: Technical Protection for Every Terrain

A high quality waterproof jacket is the outer protective layer of your layering system. Whether you’re on demanding hikes, commuting daily or heading into high alpine terrain, a waterproof hardshell prevents wind and rain from cooling you down. Our jackets offer waterproof protection from 10,000 mm hydrostatic head and high breathability, allowing moisture to escape efficiently even on steep ascents. This keeps you comfortable, mobile and well protected in changeable weather.

Material Technologies for Reliable Protection
TEXAPORE membranes
Our TEXAPORE technology provides waterproof protection from 10,000 mm hydrostatic head and high breathability.
Variants such as TEXAPORE ECOSPHERE PRO are made from 100% recycled materials and offer very high moisture vapour transmission – ideal for fast paced hiking and high intensity activity.

Functional details
Water repellent zips, fully adjustable hoods and ergonomically shaped sleeves ensure you can move freely, even in heavy rain.

Construction for specific uses
The range includes ultralight, packable jackets for stowing in your rucksack as well as robust trekking jackets with reinforced shoulder areas – ideal for longer trips with heavy loads or frequent rucksack use.

A key difference lies in the construction:
• 2 layer jackets bond the outer fabric to the membrane, with a loose inner lining. They feel softer and are ideal for everyday wear, city use and light hiking.
• 3 layer jackets laminate the outer fabric, membrane and inner material into one solid unit. This makes them significantly more durable and abrasion resistant – perfect for trekking, mountain tours and intensive use with a rucksack.

Frequently Asked Questions About Women’s Waterproof Jackets & Coats
What hydrostatic head rating do I actually need?
• 5,000–10,000 mm: everyday use, city, commuting, short walks
• from 10,000 mm: hiking, trekking, mixed weather
• from 15,000 mm: demanding conditions, prolonged rain, pressure from rucksack straps
How breathable should a waterproof jacket be?
The faster your pace, the higher the breathability should be. Our categories help you choose:
• TEXAPORE: high breathability for everyday use & gentle hikes
• TEXAPORE PRO: very high breathability for intensive hiking
• TEXAPORE ECOSPHERE PRO: very high breathability + recycled materials
Are the jackets & coats suitable for use with a rucksack?
Yes. Many of our hiking and trekking models use robust 2 or 3 layer laminates that reduce abrasion from shoulder straps and protect the membrane.
How do I care for my hardshell jacket properly?
Wash regularly with a specialist detergent to remove salt and sweat residues. You can reactivate the water repellent finish (DWR) with gentle tumble drying or a PFC free reproofing treatment.
What’s the difference between waterproof and water repellent?
Waterproof jackets have a membrane and taped seams – they stay waterproof even in persistent rain. Water repellent fabrics (e.g. some softshells) only protect against light drizzle and are not suitable for sustained wet conditions.
