ORION JACKET

Product Specifications

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 absorbs 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.

Key Features

Class D/N – DAY/NIGHTgarments are for staff who may be required to work under both times, Day or Night. If day work extends into nighttime, or poor light requires traffic to use headlights, the Class D/N garments must be supplied and worn.

Swazi's legendary adjustable & removable structured hood
Back hood adjuster for more personalised fit
Domed storm flap over full length zip
Extra long, full-length 2-way YKK zip to ensure the jacket is as easy to get on as it is to get off. Use the top puller to zip it up closed, or use the bottom puller if you want more breathing room down under.
Vented hem for easier leg movement
Touch tape adjustable cuffs
2 large, deep outer pockets
Reflective tape
Swazi printing on rear panel

Orion Jacket

Finally ….a rain jacket that keeps you dry…..the water beads and runs off and the jacket breathes. Together with the Bib leggings….these are simply the best wet weather gear I have ever brought. Match that with Szazi’s excellent service……very very happy with Swazi !!

Is it even raining?

I've got a few swazi products now and I'd wanted an Orion jacket for years. After finally having enough of a leaking generic jacket I bite the bullet and ordered an Orion. It's chalk and cheese compared to the competition, it breathes very well and keeps me dry all day long.

Hi Vis Orion Jacket (Yellow)

I work at Stockton coal mine, the company supplies either very heavy rubber wet weather gear, or light weight stuff that lets in the rain, so the "Orion" was a great find, Hi vis, it breathes & keeps out the harshest rain 5 to 6 meters a year at Stockton. It is a mine site so hard hats are compulsory, you can just get a hard hat on under the hood, but then the section of the jacket that goes across your mouth/nose is pulled up by the hard hat, resulting in difficult vision at your feet, without the hard hat it is fine, a simple fix would be to design a hard at option with more room for the hard hat, seeing as the hood can be un zipped

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.
