Water-Resistant Winter Jackets

12 December 2025

Instead of bitter cold and snow, we are often met with mild temperatures, rain, and dreary days. For those who spend a lot of time outdoors with a horse or dog, this means you need winter jackets that can handle both wet and windy conditions—without becoming heavy or bulky. Uhip’s winter jackets and coats are designed precisely for that.

Water-resistant winter jackets with taped seams

When temperatures hover around freezing and precipitation often falls as rain or sleet, having a jacket that keeps you dry is more important than ever. Our most water-resistant winter jackets combine waterproof construction with freedom of movement. With taped seams and a membrane, the fabric withstands up to 10,000 mm of water column. Our winter jackets feature a fluorocarbon-free ECO DWR treatment, making them a more sustainable and rainproof choice.

What does “water column” mean?

The water column indicates how much water a fabric can withstand before it begins to leak. The value is measured in millimetres and shows the level of water pressure the fabric can resist; for example, 10,000 mm means the fabric can withstand the pressure equivalent to 10 metres of water on top of it before letting moisture through. The higher the water column, the more waterproof the garment is—something especially important for jackets and shell layers used in wet, windy conditions.

Made-to-Match – Smart Layering

or mild winters, the key to comfort is the layering principle. Combine a woolen mid-layer with your shell or riding jacket to adjust warmth according to the day’s conditions. Uhip’s Made-to-Match solution makes it easy to attach a warming liner to your shell jacket when needed and remove it when the weather is milder. This gives you flexibility, style, and functionality all year round.
