DLX Malcolm sits in Trespass’s more premium DLX outerwear range, aimed at walkers and everyday commuters who want proper wet weather protection without stepping up to the price and bulk of high end mountain shells. It’s the sort of jacket you’d compare with entry level waterproofs from Regatta or Berghaus, focusing on staying dry and comfortable rather than shaving grams for fast and light trips.
Who is this jacket for?
If you’re out in changeable UK weather, a waterproof hooded jacket earns its keep. The hood helps when wind driven rain catches you away from shelter, and a proper outer layer also stops your mid layers from getting soaked and heavy. With sizes running from XS to XXL, it’s also suited to anyone who struggles to find a consistent fit across outdoor brands.
- Waterproof outer: useful for dog walks, school runs and weekend hikes when showers turn persistent.
- Hooded design: adds coverage where umbrellas fail, especially in gusty conditions.
- Wide size range: helps if you prefer room for layering in colder months.
