The Härkila Aspire HWS Jacket is a thoroughly capable all-round hunting jacket built for hunters who need reliable, full-weather protection across a wide range of activities and conditions — from driven days in the rain to early morning high seat sessions, dog handling, and rough shooting on exposed ground. It combines Härkila's own HWS® membrane technology with a brushed tricot outer fabric and an exceptionally well-considered feature set to produce a jacket that earns its place as a genuine workhorse of the shooting wardrobe.
The HWS® — Härkila Weather System — membrane delivers waterproofing rated to a 20,000mm water column pressure, placing it firmly in the serious end of hunting waterproofing rather than the shower-resistant territory occupied by DWR-only garments. It is windproof and breathable throughout, with a mesh lining that wicks moisture away from the body during periods of exertion, and a PFAS-free construction throughout — both the membrane and the DWR outer treatment are free from harmful fluorinated chemicals, offering full weather protection without the environmental compromise of traditional fluorocarbon waterproofing.
The brushed tricot outer fabric is the other key story. Brushed surfaces are significantly quieter than smooth synthetics when moving through vegetation, against jacket layers or when raising a firearm — a detail that matters enormously in stalking and driven shooting where fabric noise at the wrong moment can cost you a shot. The jacket moves quietly and feels soft against the hands and face, without the crinkle and rustle that characterises many waterproof hunting jackets.
The pocketing is genuinely excellent and clearly designed by people who actually hunt. Dual zipped radio and GPS pockets on both sides of the chest keep comms and navigation devices instantly accessible on either side regardless of which hand is dominant or which shoulder carries the rifle. Large zipped side pockets provide ample general storage, an inner zip pocket secures valuables, and a dedicated game pocket across the back provides discreet carrying capacity for small quarry, a hat or additional layers — a classic driven shooting and rough shooting feature that many modern jackets have abandoned. Underarm ventilation zips allow airflow management during hard going, while an adjustable integrated hood, adjustable cuffs and an adjustable hem allow the fit and weather seal to be dialled in precisely for the conditions. Available in Hunting Green, sizes 46–64.
