The most incredible gilet I have ever owned, the quality is exquisite and it is unbelievably warm and cosy, as well as looking very chic. I wore it to the British GT Championship last weekend in challenging weather and remained toasty. Thank you Lockwood!
Highly recommend this beautiful gilet. It fits perfectly and is warm and stylish. I love it.
Amazing quality and beautiful looking product!!
Absolutely brilliant bit of kit, so good in fact that i bought 2!
I spend a lot of time outside standing around in all weather and as most people know,once youre wet you then get cold and morale hits the deck as well as running the chance of getting ill. These smocks eliminate this by keeping you fully dry underneath and also reducing exposure to the wind.
Highly practical with plenty of pocket space, comfortable and dry. On top of all this they are stylish and you can feel the quality so you know its built to last.
Honestly cannot recommend this brand enough.
Super warm and very comfortable to wear- very cosy and is a great 🇬🇧 bit of kit.
The quality is excellent- very impressed indeed.
It exceeds expectations and I now have my eye on the new green one for me.. I bought this for Mark for Christmas.. he doesn’t want to wait for that and says it is Vital to wear all through the winter and. It was a second of its toasty warmth.
It arrived so speedily and so beautifully wrapped with a lovely handwritten note too.. And a Badge!
Thank you so much Jacob🙏🏼
I am so impressed, the quality is really exceptional, the sort of thing that would keep you dry in a Bodmin Gale. Soon to be put to the test.. thanks for an incredible piece of kit… it is an heirloom and Mark is thrilled with it.
A lovely gilet. Beautifully executed. Quality and fit are spot on. Lovely personal touches also included within the purchase. A classy experience from start to finish. Highly recommended!!
So lovely I bought it twice. One suggestion as we made at Blenheim perhaps look at the sizing!
I purchased the brilliant sherpa gilet yesterday at a show only to discover when I got home that I had been somewhat optimistic in my sizing. On contacting the owner, he has offered to send me out a larger size at no extra cost. I just love the fact that the quality and manufacture of all the products plus the service from this company are all traditionally British. By that I mean, striving for excellence and going the extra mile. Thank you Lockwood for being a shining example of what British company can do when you set your mind to it.
Fantastic quality and great to be backing British
Great jacket. Really well made and you can feel the quality as soon as you open the box. Kept me warm and dry in the recent storms and feels absolutely bomb proof. Only down side is for the Lockwood team and that is I won't be needing to buy another any time soon.
Amazing product, quality materials, great customer service and British made. What more can you ask for. God save the King
Trying to find words on actually how incredible this jacket is, the quality, design & materials are a different level altogether!

Unbelievable quality coat couldn't be more happy with it, over the moon. Highly recommend. Top notch service. 10/10.
I’ve been in uniform for over 20 years now and tragically, I have worn it all.
From those awful 1980s pattern combats, to those weird mustard yellow ‘94 smocks with the zips, the revolution that was CS95, threadbare desert combats and now MTP, every variation of windproof, waterproof and even gas proof clothing if you’re one of those weirdos that count NBC suits as clothing.
But this smock is absolutely the best thing I’ve worn. It feels quality, like someone has actually given a sh*t about the people who wear it. It feels robust and hard wearing and gives you the feeling it’s not going to let you down, or rip to bits on the first bit of gorse bush you encounter.
It’s made of what feels like a cordua type material so it’s initially quite stiff but after a few wears the fabric starts to relax a bit and become more comfortable. It’s not soft like a windproof or a Keela, it’s reassuringly tough, like a decent quality bergan. Inside is lined with a waterproof lining. I am actually looking forward to some crappy weather so I can really test it against the elements. I don’t think it will left me down!
It’s got everything you need and nothing you don’t. Wired hood to keep the hood off your face. Little strap on the back so you can fold the hood away when not in use. Nice big bulky pockets on the bottom and little ones at the top to prevent you overloading yourself. Velcro on the arms so you can add the badges people seem to love these days.
Like all clothing, you’ll need to wear it at the right time to get the real value out of it. It’s quite a heavy bit of kit, so it’s really going to pay dividends on a windy range or a soaking Exercise, but it’s not going to be appropriate for heavy tabbing or hot weather - it’s called the Brecon smock because presumably, that’s what it’s best for.
If you like being warm and dry, this is the smock for you. Yes, the list price might seem a bit steep, but like everything in life, you get what you pay for.
At the moment my Brecon smock is hanging next to my Barbour jacket in my wardrobe and they feel like they’re related. Neither is cheap, but both are premium brands that will last you forever if you look after them. Don’t think of it as another bit of kit - think of it as a heirloom!
Premium piece of kit, very impressive.
Great smock one of the best smocks I've owned great kit
