Picture this: you’ve committed to go to an outdoor work or social event but the weathers is miserable. The invite says ‘smart casual’ so your Swazi Severn or Doughroaster won’t quite do. Sure, you want to look presentable, but not at the expense of being cold and uncomfortable.
We’ve all been there and it’s why we created The Molesworth Fleece Jacket. This windproof men’s fleece jacket straddles the divide between work and pleasure - effortlessly combining a professional cut with practical functionality.
Made from 330gsm AEGIS® Windshield 3-Layer Swift fleece, it has a low cut back, high collar and deep secure pockets. And with its modern, clean cut you’ll feel as comfortable wearing it around town as on the farm or in the bush.
If you're ordering from outside New Zealand, your country might add its own duties or customs fees when your Swazi gear arrives - These charges are out of our hands, so just be aware that you might need to pay them to collect your parcel. If you’re unsure, it’s worth checking with your local customs office first.
📬 Order Confirmations & Updates
We keep you in the loop - You’ll get a confirmation email once your order’s placed, and another with tracking info the moment it ships.

FUNCTION
Windproof, Breathable
Swazi's Windshield outer layers combine all of the technical performance features of the Aegis membrane with the bonus of the comfort of fleece. The 3-layer Aegis membrane ensures that the Windshield range is 100% windproof and breathable, and effortlessly handles most showers. Swazi's Windshield range isn't 100% waterproof because fleece can't be seam-sealed - eventually, water will come through the stitching. Windshield Outer Layers provide total all-around wind protection with extra warmth and comfort for when it comes in hard and cold!

Replacement jacket
I’ve been wearing Molesworth jacket for about ten years. It’s been amazing but starting to look a bit “lived in”. I have just replaced it with another one the same. I’m 75 years old so can’t guarantee I’ll be back for a 5hird one😂😂😂

Molesworth jacket
Nice jacket and well made, brought to replace an old Molesworth jacket I have had for 10-15 years.
Cuffs are way too small! Very difficult to get my hands through ( I have average size hands-not farmer size hands at all!) and it is a real struggle to get my watch through the cuff so I can see the time. Definitely needs an improvement on this area!
Cuffs made for Thai size hands? ( product is made in Thailand)

Portable heated room
I needed a new jacket to replace 2 worn out ones. I like full zip jackets with no hood. They are easy to take on and off and you can see out of them and hear what's going on around you. Since I don't intend to become a shoplifter or some other form of hide my identity from the cameras scumbag a hood has no use for me. I wanted a chest pocket for fly fishing gear, zip hand pockets for cellphone and wallet, high collar and wind resistant fabric, cuffs that I can push up past my elbows to retrieve errant flies off snags, shower proof, and no velcro because I hate the way it craps out and makes a horrendous noise. This jacket ticks all the boxes. Especially the wind resistance. Its like putting on a heated room. Reasonable weight, fits OK, price is good, well made. Good.

Jacket.
I haven’t had a chance to wear it yet. I purchased it to replace a similar jacket that I’ve owned for 10-20 years can’t remember. It’s not as soft. As the old one. But it’s probably a little more wind and rain proof
I waned a casual tidy jacket. I think it will be ok.

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.

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.
