It took me sometime to finally decide to order this jacket, after all there are plenty of companies who specialise in this kind of waterproof shell. However, I’m really glad I took the plunge. The jacket is a great fit, has the typical Frahm set of pockets and the fabric has a nice soft feel, unlike most other jackets of this type.
I have found the jacket equally at home in the city as in countryside and it certainly doesn’t look out of place in either.
But before writing my review I have had to wait for some ‘decent’ rain rather than just dashing to the shops from the car during the odd shower. ‘Fortunately’, I was treated to a really heavy and persistent downpour last week and I have to say that the jacket performed admirably and kept me bone dry. Good job!

Having looked at lots and lots and lots of rain jackets, I am happy to say I made the right choice with this absolute banger of a jacket. Stylish and practical, it simply oozes quality. Lovely material both inside and out, it feels more hefty (but still lightweight) than some of the competitors at a similar price point. The pockets are brilliant, the hood is as good as Nick says, and the yellow is just bright enough. Love the beading in the light rain too. Just waiting for a downpour now to give it a proper test. And very proud to have joined the exclusive Frahm club!

Within a few short weeks of receiving my first ever Frahm - the Foreign Correspondent's Jacket in black - I found myself thinking about a second purchase, such is my delight with the FCJ. The Harrington Racer Jacket caught my eye, and also my imagination - harking back to when I was a spotty teenager in the late 70's in the midst of the Two Tone/Ska era when my wardrobe consisted of Ben Sherman shirts, Fred Perry polo shirts, Sta Prest and Two Tone trousers, penny loafers, a Crombie coat, and my red Harrington jacket, and before I knew it my fingers was hovering over the 'Add to Cart' button, eventually ending up with my second Frahm in as many months. Now that I'm close to 60 and not 16, I opted for the Navy Blue, which to me is more of an Air Force blue, but that's splitting hairs. it's such a beautiful colour, and as with my FCJ - and I'm sure all the future Frahm's I'm sure to become custodian of over the coming years - it's construction is masterful, the design clever and forgiving, the materials of the highest quality, and the overall feel is of understated elegance & class. Simply put, there's nothing not to like about it and a hell of a lot to love. As with any Frahm, it's not cheap, but investments tend not to be. I'm more interested in quality, and as the Frahm design ethic is based on functionality over fashion, they're veritable modern-day classics designed to stand the test of time in terms of how they wear and their wearability over time - classics just don't go out of fashion. When you consider how many years you'll be able to wear these, what seems like a large outlay at the time of purchase is better viewed as great value for money over time. from the time of ordering my FCJ to receiving it was 8 months, but this time around with the HRJ I received it within a couple of days, which was great. That said, if they don't have your size and/or preferred colour, I would still encourage you to order one for Spring/Summer 2024 - you won't regret it.

Again Frahm deliver a jacket that exceeds expectations. Well-made, feels substantial and looks great. Anyone with doubts over the pre-order system trust me Frahm don't disappoint.

I needed a waterproof jacket with a hood. I have the Frahm Thermal Ventile and my God that is one warm coat. But I don't have a hood and sometimes I want one.

What I love about my four seasons ... besides the yellow and blue, which is a fantastic combination - are ... the scalloped cuffs, which are amazing in wet weather; the hood, which is genius personified; peripheral vision in a hood is just amazeballs; the fit, which allowed my on Sunday to watch my grandson playing mini rugby with a T-shirt, shirt, jumper and the jacket and I didn't feel trussed up.

It oozes quality. The seams, stitching, zips, and the pully things on the zips are all so well specified.

And then there are the washing instructions. Never read anything so detailed and helpful on a garment,

I cannot see myself ever buying a jacket from anywhere else.

I’ve had a chance now to wear the jacket in heavy weather a few times and am really pleased! It’s lightweight and breathable, seriously well designed and made, and not a drop of wet inside. My wife was going to nick it so she has one now too. Nice company to deal with.

In a word … NO!
I am lucky enough to own some serious coats from the likes of Mountain Equipment, Canada Goose and Arcteryx amongst others. I wasn’t expecting FRAHM to perform as well as these but it outperforms them all. Excellent quality, windproof, waterproof and breathable. It feels great too!
Would I recommend, definitely. My first FRAHM but probably the first of many

I have 2 HRJs - the navy and the red version 1s, and they are probably my favourite of my Frahm jackets.
I was eagerly waiting for the black to come around again and was intrigued to see it would be ‘Version 2’ - and I’m definitely not disappointed. The upgrades are subtle but beautiful: the waist snaps, the zip chin guard, the red trim inside, the lovely 2023 CALM art patch. Also the cut seems to give a bit more room on the body - the version 1 I found could be snug with a thicker top underneath but this seems to give a little more wiggle room. All in all a perfect jacket has become perfect and then some. Roll on next year’s launch (military green again, pretty please).
Cheers again Frahm for delivering joy through the medium of jackets.

I had been sorely tempted by this jacket for a while and finally gave into temptation. It was absolutely worth the wait and the price. The attention to detail on the jacket is fantastic, the product feels great, looks stylish and even comes in a very sexy box.

I fear this could be the start of an addiction. God help me. Thanks guys, great product, keep up the good work

Frahm have done what what we all wanted, a great quality coat that fits perfectly. Made out of top materials, for the quality of the jackets they are very good value for money. This is my 5th Frahm, have a 6th on order, with I’m sure more to come. Very happy as usual

Where to start? They do say that good things come to those who wait, and wait I did. For 7 months! Having purchased it back in August, many occasions & business meetings have passed when the FCJ would have made ideal outerwear, but now those 7 months have passed I can happily say it was worth the wait and I can now look forward to wearing it, keeping warm & dry whilst also looking stylish & sharp during the cooler months. What a beautiful f’n garment! Design is spot-on, manufacture is meticulous and the overall attention to detail is unsurpassed. And the fit is perfect. Mine is a 3XL - I’m bigger than the average bear at around 220lbs at 5’11” with an athletic build. Before receiving it I was a little concerned about the fit around the arms, shoulders and back - with similar jackets I’ve bought in the past, this has sometimes been an issue. Not so with the Frahm. It’s amply cut to accommodate those who train, but not so big as to drown the regular guy. It’s also satisfying to know I’m not going to be seeing too many others wearing the same jacket, so it’s feels special. I also like that Frahm care. Not in a wanky, overly-worthy woke kinda way, as that would turn me right off, but they care about things that matter, like mental health. A tenner from the sale of each jacket goes to the mental health/suicide prevention charity, CALM. A nice touch. I can see myself buying another Frahm. And another after that. Although they’re not cheap, they do offer great value. And you won’t see them everywhere, which I like, because who wants to be a sheep. If you appreciate great quality, materials, design & craftsmanship, you’ll want one too. They are worth the wait - time will pass, but don’t let Frahm pass you by.

Love it. When quality is important in everything I do or buy the coat is Everything I hoped for. My go to coat for all
Occasions.

Frahm's shirts (which I think I wear almost every day) are the highest quality shirts I've ever owned. My first arrived a couple of years ago and it's still as good as new.
Stylish, supremely comfortable, clever designs and great attention to detail.
When you briefly stopped selling them last year I was gutted.
So glad you changed your mind. Keep them coming!

Frahm shirts really are the best you’ll find. Lovely soft brushed cotton, great tailored fit - flattering slim silhouette without being tight or uncomfortable, and pockets! I’m a 43” chest and 6 ft 5 and can wear a Large Long as a shirt and XL long as more of a shacket. Just brilliant.

6. Oh crap! Why didn't I preorder the white/navy/bordeaux one too!
