Mountain Equipment Lhotse Waterproof Jacket Review

We put the Mountain Equipment Lhotse Waterproof Jacket through its paces on a cold UK Winter afternoon.

Bought this jacket back in 2018 - lost it (DONT ASK) - bought it again in Jan 2021 - "Im a happy camper" (quoting Father Jack from Father Ted") well worth the £900 total investment. Great video - excellent review - well presented - fantastic character - all the best James Hull

I've got the ME saltoro it's lighter than the Lhotse but I absolutely love it I've been out in some grim weather this last year and it's not let me down I'd definitely get another

Love this coat had all types of weather thrown at me not a problem, expesially in storms x

Do you feel like having enough room underneath the jacket for layering garments, such as fleeces, synthetic puffer?. Whats your chest and waist size? I myself have bought in a XL, but I think I have a larger frame than you, but still would like ample room for other layers.

Personally I like this jacket but wondering why you tested it with one of the pits open and the other closed?

Hi mate, great review video. I realise I'm watching this video 2-3 years on but can I ask what is it like for layering in terms of down/synthetic insulation. I have bought the Montane Antifreeze XT and I also have a Rab Microlight Alpine jacket. If I'm wearing say thicker insulation such as the Antifreeze, would the Lhotse need to be sized up due to the Alpine fit on the hips?

Cheers.

How do these come up sizing wise? I normally wear a medium waterproof jacket. Thanks

Just found this jacket on offer at Cotswold outdoors for £270 👌🏻

I just bought this jacket and it fits well in all areas except for the armpits. I don’t know if this is normal as I’m pretty new to hiking gear. So space around the shoulders and chest seem ok, it’s as if the arm holes are too high.

Do you reckon I should size up?
