WATERPROOF CLOTHING FOR A WET AUTUMN
If you need to stay dry in the wind and rain, you'll need clothing with a higher waterproof rating.
Here are our best picks for women, men and children, from quality, reliable brands...
Autumn means micro-fleeces!
During Autumn, when the temperature begins to drop and darkness takes over, we need to add a thin layer. Micro Fleeces are brilliant all year round, but really make a difference throughout the Autumn months.

THE MOST WATERPROOF JACKET WE SELL
The Stoney Creek Force 18 Jacket is Wild & Moor’s recommendation for ultimate waterproof protection.
Constructed with advanced X1-Tough three-layer fabric, it delivers a 20,000 mm ASTM-tested waterproof rating, 100% seam-sealed, and treated with a DWR finish that actively sheds rain, mud, and even blood. It’s also fully windproof and breathable, thanks to a microporous internal membrane.
Designed for tough rural use, the Force 18 includes articulated, reinforced elbows; storm-flap-protected zips; fleece-lined collar with neck scarf; a wired-peak adjustable hood; internal cuffs; drawcord waist; reflective trim; and dual-access, draining pockets - all combining rugged durability with functional.
As the most waterproof option in the Stoney Creek lineup, the Force 18 is unmatched in extreme wet conditions, making it ideal for driving-rain and quad bike use. That said, other jackets in their range - the Tempest, Stillwater, Tundra, Pioneer, and Recreational models - are still packed with wet weather features. They offer benefits like lighter weight, affordability, and easier layering without striving for the Force 18’s exceptional waterproofing. Each jacket caters to different outdoors needs, whether for milder use, agility, or budget-conscious flexibility.

Bushbuck Defender vs Stoney Creek Tundra
Heavy-Duty Waterproof Jackets for Relentless Conditions
When the rain sets in and the ground turns rough, you need more than a lightweight shell. Both the Bushbuck Defender and the Stoney Creek Tundra are serious wet-weather jackets, built for people who work and roam outdoors whatever the forecast.
Bushbuck Defender (Unisex)
The Defender is a no-nonsense, hard-wearing jacket designed to take a beating in the toughest environments. With a 500D Oxford nylon outer, it shrugs off brambles, scrub and pack wear. A 10,000mm waterproof rating, fully seam-sealed construction, and DWR finish ensure reliable protection in heavy downpours. Practical touches like pit zips for ventilation, silicone shoulder grips to keep packs steady, and an adjustable hood make it as functional as it is tough. Weighing around 1.1kg, it’s a solid, dependable option for farmers, gamekeepers and anyone working long hours outdoors. And as a unisex design, it’s built to fit both men and women who demand rugged protection.
Stoney Creek Tundra
Built with the same 500D Oxford nylon durability, the Tundra is purpose-made for endurance in the wet. Its 3-layer, breathable fabric combines stormproof protection with moisture management, making it ideal for long, active days in the hills. The 10,000mm+ waterproof rating and fully taped seams guarantee dryness, while the ergonomic cut, storm flap and adjustable hood keep the elements locked out without restricting movement. At around 1.0kg, it delivers robust performance with a touch more breathability and expedition feel.
Which to Choose?
Both jackets excel when the weather turns grim. The Defender is the go-to for maximum ruggedness and practical, unisex versatility. The Tundra edges ahead for breathability and long-distance comfort, perfect for hunting trips, mountain hikes or exposed hillside work.
At Wild & Moor, we recommend them as two sides of the same coin: whichever you choose, you’ll have a jacket built to keep you dry, protected, and out there longer.
