  This is an exceptional, functional piece of kit. An outer layer that is adjustable, comfortable and highly practical. Great pockets, easy to access the interior and the hood is better than anything else I've worn. Sizing is generous, so plenty of room for layering underneath. As most everyone ought know it's not a waterproof, and will let in water under heavy conditions but can be waxed if needed. This anorak has been on my list for a long time, and incredibly glad I was able to get it, particularly at the price that Woodlore offer it at.

  This is heavy duty anorak No.8 and in reality you see and sense the quality of the garment. I purchased it to wear when I go to nature and I'm living in a countryside also as everyday clothing. My height is 1.82 cm weight around 85-90kg, chest 110 cm and size L fits me well, right size. I'm glad that I purchased it!

  First of all I want to thank everyone from Woodlore team, who helped me choose the right size of an anorak, because it is bigger than you might expect. I’ve got answers straight away, these people are real professionals. I really recommend them. Thank You for your support guys. About anorak No.8 by Fjallraven it’s my new favorite. It is top notch piece of gear. I haven’t put it to its phase yet but I’m sure it won’t let me down. Quality materials, really good design, plenty of pockets, large adjustable hood, comfortable to wear, the color dark olive, is more like brown which I like. I mean if you think about getting one don’t hesitate. You won’t regret it. Yes it is expensive, but it’s one of those buy once, cry once items that last you for years to come. Thanks again Woodlore team

  Could not find this size and thrilled with quality, speed of service and arrival. All said Woodlore exceeded my expectations in every way, including personal contact with questions. Thank you!! A repeat customer to be!

  Great anorak and a first class service from Woodlore. I'm 6 foot 1 and 13.5 stone and usually take an extra large in jackets but after reading lots of reviews I went for a medium which fits perfectly. However if you want to put on lots of layers maybe a large would be better choice. Overall very pleased with service and jacket.

  Excellent. Keeps wind off around lower face with high collar up, and two good walks in rain have shown it has good waterproof level. Only grumble would be lack of zipped section in main pocket to keep things handy but prevent them falling out when taking off.

  Very high quality anorak, as expected from Fjallraven and at this price, with considerable adjustability throughout. Significantly oversized to provide lots of room for mid-layers - so order a size (or even two) smaller if you don't what it to be too roomy. I'm 5 ft 10 inches and pretty broad across the shoulders and I ended up with the XS which is still a good fit. I originally ordered a medium and it was like donning a marquee. The material is remarkably water resistant, especially when new (it comes partially waxed) and it's a good idea to keep at least the shoulders and hood waxed, but it's not 'waterproof' and it will eventually succumb in a downpour. In any wind, it's terrific and it feels like you are wearing your own mobile bivvy with the vast hood up. The extended rear is great to sit on. If you are very claustrophobic then it's possibly not for you as the hood is all encompassing and it can take some exiting if you don't fully unzip the sides. Those side zips are probably its weakest point as it is relatively easy to strain them getting in and out if they are still partially zipped up - so you need to be careful. It's not cheap - but the quality and functionality speaks for itself and there's really nothing else out there that is going to last as long and provide the same level of functionality.

  Arrived the following day, double packed. Used it a couple of times, out all day on the Axe Estuary birdwatching. Fabulous coat, very well designed, excellent pocket layout, no noise when you move in it, expensive, but you get what you pay for. Looking forward to years of use from it.

  Large enough to take additional warm layers underneath - excellent build quality and well thought out details from Fjallraven - very versatile with multiple configuration options.
