I realised I was missing a lightweight gilet from my wardrobe and knew that Frahm had done them in the past. I reached out to Nick via social media and he said that despite the line being finished there was 1 left in the archive and that I should contact the customer service team. I immediately did so and they were able to track down the last one.
It’s a great addition to my wardrobe - beautifully finished and a perfect fit and is perfect for wearing over a t-shirt or shirt in the cooler summer evenings and will layer well under my Frahm waterproof shield or OUFJ once we enter the colder/wetter months.
Not just a great gilet, but a fantastic example of Frahm’s attention to detail on the customer experience side too. Prompt response from Nick, Leonie and Izzy in responding to my cheeky request, finding the last one and then getting it out the door to me at home! 5 Frahms and counting… I’m sure there will be some more in the future!
As always a beautiful jacket made and delivered as promised!
I was away traveling and it’s like Christmas as a kid, opening a present you’ve been waiting for!
So it’s the same old Frahm jacket. Same high quality technical fabric, same fit for purpose functionality with super soft lining and plenty of pockets plus pockets for hands along with the same sharp lines eye catching design.
Will they ever do mediocre or even just pretty good? I doubt it!
I had high expectations of this jacket and it hasnt disappointed. Great fit and weight, and a lovely feel to the fabric. Really like the magnetic closures, number of pockets and it survived some hefty summer downpours in the Alps, so very pleased with it so far.
My first Frahm… and won’t be the last.
I’ve been stalking the site for quite a while, and waiting for me to need a new jacket.
Wow. Superb fit and quality. Thoughtful functionality (pockets! hood vision! magnetic closures!) and… it’s actually waterproof, waited until a suitable deluge happened yesterday before reviewing 😜… this is by no means a given, in “waterproof” shells sadly. It’s not even expensive IMHO, other “high end” outdoor wear brands will charge a lot more for less.
It is early days and have only had the jacket for a day but after weeks with no rain it did rain this morning and don’t has been worn. Very lightweight and comfortable. Not as restrictive as other jackets and looking forward to testing it when the rain hits us in the autumn!
