That’s why we’ve curated some of the best waterproof military clothing and equipment to help you train, no matter the weather.
1. MTP Waterproof Jackets
An essential for any cadet or service member, a reliable waterproof jacket can make all the difference in harsh conditions. Cadet Direct offers a range of British Army MTP Waterproof Jackets designed to provide maximum protection against the rain. These jackets not only feature Multi-Terrain Pattern (MTP) camouflage for blending into diverse environments, but they’re also constructed from tough, durable materials that resist wind and water. With taped seams and a breathable design, these jackets ensure that moisture stays out while allowing sweat to evaporate.
Key features:
- Waterproof and windproof
- Breathable to prevent overheating
- Adjustable cuffs and hood for added protection
- Taped seams for extra durability
Perfect for: Outdoor field exercises and long training days in unpredictable weather.
2. Viper Tactical Poncho V-Cam
The Viper Tactical Poncho V-Cam is a versatile and lightweight waterproof solution, perfect for outdoor training and field use. Made from durable rip-stop nylon, this poncho is designed to withstand tough environments while keeping you dry in rainy conditions.
It features taped seams and press studs along the sides, allowing you to create makeshift sleeves or even connect multiple ponchos for added coverage. The metal eyelets along the edges make it easy to use this poncho as an emergency shelter or basha. Compact and lightweight, it comes with a handy drawstring carry bag for easy storage and portability, making it a reliable choice for any cadet or outdoor enthusiast.
3. Jack Pyke Waterproofing Spray
The Jack Pyke Waterproofing Spray offers an advanced, easy-to-use solution to protect your gear from the elements. Using innovative nano technology, this spray creates a breathable and fast-drying layer that repels water without altering the feel or breathability of your fabric.
Suitable for use on all types of materials, including Gore-Tex, this versatile spray can be applied to clothing, tents, and even delicate items like tissue paper. One 500ml can is enough to treat two to three jackets, providing long-lasting waterproof protection for your outdoor kit, no matter the conditions.
4. British Army Gaiters
When paired with waterproof boots and trousers, Waterproof Gaiters offer an additional layer of protection against mud, rain, and snow. These heavy-duty gaiters are worn over your boots and lower legs, preventing water, mud, and debris from getting into your boots during tough terrain training. Made from tough, waterproof materials, they are built to withstand challenging outdoor conditions.
