The HOGGS OF FIFE Walker Waterproof Long Coat is a warm, weatherproof outer layer designed for farming, dog walking and everyday country life in cold, wet conditions.
Its longline polyester outer has a PFAS-free waterproof and breathable finish, providing extended protection beyond the coverage of a standard-length jacket. A plush fleece lining through the body and quilted insulation towards the base help retain warmth.
A grown-on hood, internal storm cuffs and a protected full-length front zip help keep the weather out, while bellows pockets and concealed side-entry handwarmer pockets provide practical storage.
The polyester outer uses a PFAS-free waterproof and breathable finish to help keep rain out while allowing heat and moisture vapour to escape.
Hoggs of Fife does not publish a numerical waterproof or breathability rating for this coat, but describes it as suitable for farmers and dog walkers working in wet conditions.
The longer cut provides additional protection around the upper legs compared with a conventional outdoor jacket.
This extended coverage is particularly useful when walking through exposed countryside, working on the farm or standing outdoors during persistent rain.
Plush fleece lines the body for warmth and comfort, while quilted insulation at the lower section adds protection without relying on a bulky external construction.
The Walker is designed as an insulated waterproof coat for colder weather rather than a lightweight, packable rain jacket.
A grown-on hood provides additional coverage for the head and neck. As it is incorporated into the coat, it remains ready for sudden changes in the weather.
Internal storm cuffs fit closely around the wrists, helping reduce the amount of cold air and rain entering through the sleeves.
A full-length zip allows the coat to be opened and closed easily. The front placket adds an extra protective layer over the zip.
Three strategically positioned press studs secure the placket without requiring a continuous row of fastenings.
Two bellows pockets provide useful space for gloves, leads and everyday outdoor essentials.
Hidden side openings create separate handwarmer access, allowing the pockets to provide storage and warmth without compromising either function.
The Walker is suited to dog walking, farming, yard work, outdoor events and general rural use during cold, wet weather.
Its Charcoal colourway provides a versatile alternative to traditional green country outerwear.
