Fortis Ladies Stowaway Jacket
The Fortis Ladies Stowaway Jacket is an ultra-lightweight waterproof jacket designed to provide reliable weather protection while taking up almost no space in your kit. Handmade in Devon, UK, it combines technical performance with practical packability, making it an ideal companion for everything from countryside walks to everyday commuting.
Built for the changeable British climate, this jacket uses Fortis’ Stretch Mini-Rip fabric, made from 82% recycled nylon and 18% spandex, to deliver excellent freedom of movement without adding unnecessary weight. The integrated Fortex waterproof membrane provides a 20,000mm hydrostatic head and 20,000g/m² breathability, helping to keep heavy rain out while allowing excess heat and moisture to escape during active use.
The windproof construction adds another layer of protection on exposed hillsides, coastal paths, or breezy countryside trails. The magnetic front closure provides quick fastening, while the adjustable integral hood and draw cord hem help seal out wind and rain when conditions deteriorate.
Despite its impressive weather protection, the Fortis Ladies Stowaway Jacket weighs approximately 400g and packs neatly into its own pocket. This makes it easy to carry in a rucksack, travel bag, or even a larger handbag until the weather changes. Two secure zipped pockets offer safe storage for everyday essentials without adding unnecessary bulk.
Fortis Ladies Stowaway Jacket Key Features
- 20,000mm water proof rating provides dependable protection during prolonged heavy rain.
- 20,000g/m² breathability helps reduce moisture build-up during active outdoor use.
- Light weight construction weighs approximately 400g for comfortable all day wear.
- Packs into its own pocket for convenient storage and travel.
- Stretch Mini Rip recycled fabric improves comfort and freedom of movement.
- Windproof construction helps block cold winds in exposed conditions.
- Adjustable hood and draw cord hem improve protection in poor weather.
- Handmade to order in Devon, UK.
The lightweight construction makes this jacket particularly effective during spring, summer and milder autumn conditions when full water proof protection is needed without excess insulation. During colder months it also works exceptionally well as an outer shell over an insulated mid-layer such as the Fortis Ladies Calor Jacket, allowing you to build an effective layering system that adapts to changing temperatures.
The Fortis Ladies Stowaway Jacket is designed for walkers, country sports enthusiasts, travellers and anyone who needs dependable water proof protection that is always ready when required. It is not intended as a heavily insulated winter jacket on its own, but as a light weight water proof shell it delivers excellent versatility, making it an outstanding choice for year round use when paired with the right clothing underneath.
