Our Verdict
Haglofs' Betula GTX Jacket uses solid, reliable 2 layer Gore-Tex fabric to provide a durable waterproof jacket. This jacket provides good value for money with a simple but effective features set combined with quality Gore fabric that provides all the waterproofing and breathability you'd expect.
The mesh liner in the front and back body is comfortable to wear and a fabric liner on the sleeves is soft against the skin. A drawstring at the hem helps keep the draughts out. The peaked hood is adjustable at the front to enhance a good fit. The cut is boxy with room to layer underneath if required. With its no-fuss styling and sleek embroidered Haglofs ‘H’ logo this jacket looks good and performs well either in a rural or urban environment.
