The outer layer, or shell as it is sometimes known, has a big job to do. It is your best form of defence against wind, rain and snow. Choose a garment that will do all of the above, not just by fabric, but by DESIGN!

Wasn't fat enough, more pies?

Usual size is XL but the Sentinal XL was way too big, I might have visited the local bakery a bit more than is healthy and eaten all the pies this year but still didnt fit the jacket. Easy return procedure to get the L which fits perfectly.

Awesome jacket that weights next to nothing, it will live in the bottom of my day pack.

Almost perfect

Persisting down torrential rain driven by that all powerful Wellington wind and several hours of walking becomes fun in this coat. The hood is brilliant with the peaked front and the peripheral vision is a life saver in crossing busy streets. Most hoods block off your side vision when you turn your head and that makes it hard to see that car that's about to run over you but not this one the vision remains clear. The front zip comes right up under then chin and remains comfortable and the only downside is the wrist cuff stitching isn't taped so it lets the water in on the inner layer cuffs and into the inside of short cuff gloves. Not a big deal though, it handles the pouring rain out in the open in the windiest city in the world so it'll handle anything. I bought a size up to allow for extra layers

Survived Fiordland

Wets out fast which brings it down a star. Comfy to wear, very breathable. Wore for 9 days in Fiordland and kept me dry in a blizzard up the Nevis. Will be a staple bit of kit for me from now.

Packs down well into hood and super lightweight. Took as layer to travel in to Caribbean and blow me used fir when caught up in hurricane Rafeal and kept me blown dry in heavy heavy rain and despite the heat and humidity of 30 C good breathability.

FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Do you have Swazi retail stores?

We do have a Swazi shop right next door to Swazi HQ here in Levin, New Zealand.

We only sell our products through the very best retailers - we're very selective about who we have representing our gear! Find out where your nearest store is by clicking on the Swazi Stockists section or click here for the quick link.

What is the Swazi Warranty?

All Swazi garments are unconditionally warranted against faulty fabric and workmanship. We reserve the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have a specific page for more details on our warranty and repairs and returns policies here.

Will I have to pay customs on an international order?

International customers are solely responsible for payment of all duties, import taxes and customs fees.

These fees are not included in the cost of shipping and we are unable to provide estimates of what this will cost as it will depend entirely on the garment and what charges your own government imposes.

Please check with your local customs agent for more details.

Can I change or cancel my order?

We process orders very quickly, which means in most cases, we can't make changes after an order has been placed. We definitely cannot make changes after we have sent a shipping confirmation email with a tracking link.

In saying that, if you have already placed an order and would like to cancel or change it, please email us service@swazi.co.nz or call 64 6 368 4822 within 2 hours of placing your order. We will do the best we can.
