High-Level Waterproof Protection

The H-Tex membrane provides a 20,000mm waterproof rating, giving the Ballater strong protection against prolonged and heavy rainfall.

A Teflon finish on the outer fabric provides an additional barrier against rain and stains, helping water bead away before it reaches the waterproof membrane.

Breathable Outdoor Comfort

A breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24hr allows moisture vapour generated during physical activity to pass through the fabric.

This helps reduce the build-up of heat and moisture when walking between drives, working around an estate or tackling uneven ground.

Durable Taslon Oxford Fabric

The 250gsm Taslon Oxford outer provides a robust shell suited to repeated outdoor use.

Faux-suede detailing adds 200gsm reinforcement and contrast in selected areas, combining durability with the traditional appearance expected from a country field coat.

Adjustable Weather Protection

The detachable hood can be fitted when additional protection is required and removed for milder, drier conditions.

Internal storm cuffs help prevent rain and cold air from entering around the wrists, while the two-way front zip can be adjusted from the top or bottom for comfort when walking, sitting or driving.

Field-Ready Storage

Lower bellows pockets provide generous carrying capacity for cartridges, gloves and other outdoor essentials.

Waterproof-zipped handwarmer pockets protect their contents while giving cold hands a sheltered place to rest.

A poacher’s pocket provides additional carrying space, while zipped phone and internal pockets help keep smaller valuables organised and secure.

Designed for Country Life

The Ballater combines substantial weather protection with the practical storage required for long days outdoors.

Its technical performance and traditional Green styling make it suitable for driven shooting, beating, farming, gamekeeping and general country use.
