Butterworths stocks a great range of Jack Wolfskin jackets and outdoor clothing to keep you protected wherever your adventures take you.

The Story of Jack Wolfskin

Jack Wolfskin was founded in Germany in 1981, emerging during a period when outdoor clothing was becoming increasingly technical and specialised. The brand quickly built a reputation across Europe for producing genuinely functional outdoor gear, focusing on the practical needs of hikers, campers and travellers rather than chasing fashion trends. Its distinctive paw print logo has become instantly recognisable across the continent, and while the brand has grown internationally, it has kept its focus firmly on German engineered performance and reliability.

What Jack Wolfskin Is Known For

Jack Wolfskin has built its name on producing dependable, weatherproof jackets, breathable layers and durable outdoor equipment designed for genuine use in changeable conditions. The brand is particularly well regarded for its Texapore waterproofing technology, which offers a reliable, more affordable alternative for keeping the elements at bay without sacrificing breathability. Jack Wolfskin also produces a wide range of rucksacks, travel bags and accessories, reflecting its broader appeal to hikers, campers and travellers rather than solely mountaineers.

Why Jack Wolfskin Is Worth Buying

Jack Wolfskin clothing is designed with a strong focus on practicality and value, offering technical performance without the premium price tag attached to some competitor brands. This makes it a smart choice for anyone who wants genuinely functional outdoor wear for regular use, whether that is dog walking, family camping trips or more serious hiking. The brand's German engineering heritage means attention to detail in fit, seam construction and weatherproofing is consistently strong across the range.

Styling Tips

A Jack Wolfskin waterproof jacket makes an excellent everyday layer for unpredictable British weather, working just as well over casual outfits in town as it does on the trail. Fleece jackets and softshells from the range are ideal mid layers, offering warmth without bulk under a waterproof shell. For longer days outdoors, pair a breathable base layer with a Jack Wolfskin insulated jacket and sturdy footwear to stay comfortable through changing conditions, and make use of the brand's practical rucksacks and travel bags to keep everything organised.

Sustainability at Jack Wolfskin

Jack Wolfskin has committed to phasing out harmful PFC chemicals from its waterproofing treatments and has increased its use of recycled materials across jackets, fleeces and bags. The brand's focus on durability also plays into a more sustainable approach, since well made outdoor gear that lasts for years reduces the need for frequent replacement, cutting down on waste over the long term.
