Harkila Skye Shooting Waistcoat

Harkila Mens Skye Shooting Waistcoat

The Harkila Mens Skye Shooting Waistcoat is built for game shooters who need organised storage, dependable comfort and unrestricted movement throughout a full day in the field. Designed with practical field use at its core, it combines durable construction with thoughtful features that help keep essential equipment close to hand without compromising shooting performance.

Constructed from a blend of 95% polyester and 5% elastane, the waistcoat provides full stretch to support natural movement when mounting the gun, reloading and moving between pegs. The breathable, moisture-wicking fabric helps regulate heat during active days, making it comfortable to wear from the morning briefing through to the final drive. Its lightweight construction also layers easily over a shooting shirt, fleece or knitwear without feeling restrictive.

One of the standout features is the well-organised storage system. Large front cartridge pockets offer generous capacity for ammunition, while drainage holes in the base help prevent water and debris from collecting in wet conditions. Behind the cartridge pockets, zipped compartments provide secure storage for smaller valuables, keeping them separate from loose cartridges and easy to locate when needed.

A dedicated strap keeps shooting glasses readily accessible, while the internal mesh pocket offers convenient storage for a mobile phone.

Designed for repeated use throughout the shooting season, reinforced quilted shoulders improve durability in a high-wear area while providing additional stability during frequent gun mounting. The smooth two-way front zip allows quick adjustment whether walking, standing or seated, and the generous rear game pocket provides valuable extra carrying capacity when required.

Internal pockets also allow compatible recoil pads to be fitted, giving shooters the option of increased shoulder protection during high-volume days.
