FAQs

Is the Swazi Tahr XP Smock completely waterproof?
Yes – it’s made from Swazi’s 3-layer Aegis® fabric, which is fully waterproof, windproof, and highly breathable. It’s built to withstand sustained rain and harsh weather in the field.

How does the sizing work? Should I size up for layering?
Swazi garments are designed with layering in mind. If you plan to wear bulky insulation underneath, consider sizing up for more comfort. Otherwise, your regular size should fit well over base and mid-layers.

What’s the difference between a smock and a jacket?
A smock is a pullover-style outer layer with fewer openings than a full-zip jacket, offering better protection against wind and rain. The Tahr XP’s design is especially favoured by stalkers and outdoorsmen for its practicality and quiet fabric.

Is it suitable for stalking and shooting?
Absolutely. The Tahr XP is built for hunting and field sports – it’s quiet, durable, and offers excellent freedom of movement. The extended back keeps you dry when seated or crawling, and the large chest pocket ensures essentials are always to hand.

Can it be machine washed?
Yes – machine wash on a cool cycle using a specialist outdoor cleaner. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble drying. Reproof periodically to maintain waterproof performance.

Where is the Tahr XP made?
Swazi proudly manufactures all its garments in New Zealand, where they’re tested in demanding conditions by those who live and work in the wild.
