The Arbortec Half-Zip Waterproof Jacket (BreatheDry Smock) is a technical, fully waterproof and breathable jacket built for arborists working in harsh weather. A helmet-compatible hood, long back and extensive ventilation give protection and comfort for long days in the tree.
It is a half-zip smock designed to go over your climbing kit: long side zips let you reach trouser pockets and harness equipment without taking the jacket off.
Key Features
- Fully waterproof and breathable for demanding outdoor work
- High-visibility design certified to EN ISO 20471 Class 3
- Helmet-compatible adjustable hood with wired peak
- Multiple waterproof pockets for secure storage
- Extended back and long sleeves for improved weather protection
- Ventilation ports and pit zips for airflow during climbing and heavy activity
Waterproof Performance
The jacket is fully waterproof with fully taped seams, and BreatheDry vents help moisture escape. Three waterproof pockets (one chest, two lower) keep essentials dry.
Hood & Helmet Compatibility
The adjustable hood has a wired peak, a bungee adjuster and a hook-and-loop storm flap, and is helmet-compatible. It can be zipped off or stowed away.
Ventilation & Fit
Pit zips and ventilation ports give airflow during climbing or heavy activity. The extended back and long sleeves improve coverage, and the cuffs are Velcro-adjustable with Lycra thumb loops.
Climbing Kit Access
Side zips give access to trouser pockets and harness accommodation.
