Amazing customer service and communication. Fantastic jacket so well made couldn’t ask for more.

it was a present for my son, but he is delighted with it

Have started to test out my Falklands smock.....blowy days......light drizzle.....nothing extreme yet, but heading to Windy Norfolk.....Cumbria and Scotland in the months ahead and so it'll be thoroughly tested before the year is out.
First impressions are.....tough, reliable, really well made......great hood......but an observation this brand comes up on the smaller side so error on the side of going larger, especially if you want layers underneath......I'm a 40" chest and the large is just big enough, will probably buy an extra large if I buy another to allow for cold weather winter layers on. The large I have will cover Spring through Autumn and probably just around zero etc with a thick shirt and jumper etc.
Overall very impressed and Jacob has provided excellent customer service 👏.....I expect to be using this coat a lot for many years to come for walking, hiking, birdwatching and bushcraft....and a blend of all the above......I'll review again after a full test over this year.

Amazing jacket, has been great for keeping me dry on my long dog walks. Doesn't come with any insulation but lots of space underneath to layer up underneath to stay warm.

Wow!!! What a great product. Looks great on is a great coat for keeping warm and able to vent as well. It’s pricey, BUT you can see where the moneyed spent from the moment the courier drops it off. I will be buying more products for the company, but am content it’ll be 10years + until I need to look at another smock.
Thanks team for the service.

Smart gilet of excellent quality and provenance. Customer service fantastic. My 21 year old son was extremely happy to receive it as a gift.

I bought it for my son who is absolutely delighted with it. Excellent quality and does exactly what it's description says.

Recently used on an ex on catterick training area and held up to the elements for 5 days, far better than those wearing keela’s and other jackets on the market! Recommended to all the lads who noticed flaws in their jackets when they realised theirs wasn’t all that waterproof!

Bought this Olive Ladies Sherpa Gilet today at the Birmingham NEC shooting show and I’m genuinely impressed. Great fit for women - not boxy - and warm without being bulky. Easy to move in, which matters. Quality feels solid and well made. The olive colour is spot on, and I love the Guardsman logo on the chest - smart, understated, proper country look.
Practical, comfortable and looks the part. Would definitely recommend.

It wasn't so much a want, more of a need for a truly waterproof jacket, one that wouldn't look out of place in rural Lincolnshire. Not quite the Brecon Beacons but cold and wet nevertheless. I have lost count of the number of supposedly fully waterproof jackets I've purchased and at what cost and was beginning to think that no such thing existed. Purely by chance I stumbled across Lockwood and boy, what a find.

Buying British is very important to me and also contributing to our economy. Just as important as investing in quality products is people, something that is very much at the forefront of what Lockwood are about.

When knowing Jacobs background it's obvious as to why he has developed a range of products such as he has and why he runs his business in such a professional manner.

So, after a chat with Jacob I ordered a Brecon Smock and it was delivered a day later, true to his word, no less than I had expected. Having read many of the reviews I'd expected a bulky delivery, a smart presentation box, lined with fancy tissue, a suit bag, a slate drinks coaster and a posh wooden hanger. No, none of this, merely neatly folded in a grey bag but with a personal handwritten message from Jacob himself thanking me for choosing him.

Now, that's not a negative, on the contrary if it was hanging on a wooden hanger it wouldn't be earning its keep and I would have failed once again. The quality is undeniably first class, the fit is perfect and frankly the choice of materials is spot-on. Waterproof - yes, windproof - yes, plenty of storage - yes, looks great - yes.

Can I recommend, oh yes, without any pause for thought.

Jason, thank you for rising above what society has come to accept and for serving us once again, this time with extremely high quality British products that we can all be proud to wear.

Jacob, I salute you :)

Absolutely delighted with the Lockwood Henri Wax Smock. Sizing advice was spot on — I’m normally an XL and was advised to go for a XXL, which fits perfectly.

The quality of the materials is excellent and it’s great to support a British-made product. The jacket is exactly as advertised and feels properly built to last.

The presentation was also a really nice touch. It arrived in a cardboard box with the smock in a suit bag, including details of who had packaged it. There was also a small slate coaster included as a gift, along with a proper wooden coat hanger — little touches that really show pride in the product.

Jacob was a fantastic communicator throughout and made the whole process easy and personal. Highly recommended — you can tell this is a business that genuinely cares about what they produce and how they treat their customers.

A fantastic product, great customer service. Delivery was speedy and packaged lovely. Will definitely use this British company again and would highly recommend them.

High Quality bit of kit.
I have just spent a week away using this smock in pretty horrendous weather and I can say it does what it says on the tin very well, not once did any water get in and it kept the wind out better than my keela ever did. If anything it’s too waterproof as there’s no wicking to move the sweat away. if you’re static in the pouring rain it works a dream however if you’re already wet, the inside will keep that damp in. The only thing I found myself looking for was some armpit zips/ vent. Other than that, by far one of the best purchases I’ve made cheers Locky and God save the King!

Could not be happier with my Brecon smock. This thing is so well made it feels like I could scrap body armour and still come out unscathed (I won’t, but I feel I could). I bought this because I’m fed up being pisswrapped on ranges, can’t wait for that to be a thing of the past. Fits well with webbing, can’t recommend enough

Excellent item, really great quality and it fits true to size. I have worn as under a jacket and on its own. Been great for watching winter football in cold stands and well as general wear.

Prompt delivery and I appreciated the little hidden gifts and handwritten thank you note.

I will certainly go back to Lockwood, when I look for new jacket/parka.
