The Cape Buffalo is one tough SOB. How could such a lightweight cape as this be so tough then? It's the way we build them. Hand-crafted with care and double stitched seams with extra strength bar tacking on high stress points makes all the difference.

Long in the back for the rain to fall off, short in the front for working at full noise. The neoprene cuffs mean less water rolling down your armpits, while the collar has been cleverly engineered for wearing under a safety helmet and the hood is detachable. Tough? Better believe it.

Made from super abrasion resistant Swazi AEGIS Combat, the Buffalo Cape will give you years of faithful service and tons of comfort no matter how tough or hard the job.

Product Details

Waterproof

No matter what the weather, SWAZI® Watershield shells set the benchmark in high performance wet weather gear. They're simply in a class of their own!

Your essential outer layer (shell), Swazi wet weather jackets made from the best fabrics in the world, they are also designed specifically for the job of keeping you dry. Couple with insulating mid layers and base layers, Swazi's wet weather clothing will see you right in almost any weather mother nature can throw at you.



Windproof

Windshield Outer Layers provide total all round wind protection with extra warmth and comfort for when it comes in hard and cold!



Breathable

There's no point in wearing something that keeps out the rain if it keeps in the sweat - you still get wet!

We spend 2 years perfecting AEGIS® so that we ended up with a fabric that never gets wet, never let's moisture in from the outside, but lets moisture (perspiration) out. It breathes, but only in one direction (bit scary using that phrase these days...)



Great looking garments with superb performance mean this range is so stylish and so comfortable you will want to wear it all of the time.

superperb product

We are forestry and mobile saw mill contractors working in the heart of Dartmoor in the UK, Weather patterns are much the same as the West coast on the South Island of NZ, The buffalo cape allows you to stay dry and comfortable but also allowing you maximum movement during a tough days graft. I bought one of these for myself a good 10 years ago and it's still going strong. My work mate was delighted with this christmas gift for all his hard work this year

Great for zipping around farm

I like the cuffs and hood. The tail is great for keeping your behind dry. Slightly Smaller fit than other Swazi sizing but fits well. Would love the option for smokers pockets or hand warmer pockets for storing more kit on farm that I don’t want mixing in the top pocket.

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.

How do I know what size I need?

Every individual product page has a link to our size chart.
