Level up your wet-weather style
Cotopaxi stuff has a really distinctive look, with patchwork block-colour designs to give your adventures a dash of 80s retro flair. But there’s more to their garments than meets the eye. Take this Cielo rain jacket, for example – which looks great but performs even better. The 2.5-layer waterproof fabric with taped seams will stand up to heavy rain, while neat touches like the Velcro-adjustable cuffs, waterproof front zipper, adjustable hood and elastic hem will keep you buttoned up tight when the weather rolls in. It’s got a drop-shoulder design for ease of movement, and the roomy fit means you can layer it up with a woolly pully in colder conditions. All of which makes it even more impressive that the Cielo is made in 100% recycled materials.

Cotopaxi’s tagline is ‘gear for good’, and before you roll your eyes at yet another outdoor brand making lofty claims about their eco credentials, these guys really do walk the walk. They’re certified climate neutral, with rigorous ethical manufacturing standards and even a grants scheme that supports organisations fighting global poverty.
They also prioritise the use of recycled and reclaimed materials, which includes some imaginative upcycling – like their ‘Del DÃa’ range made from repurposed fabrics. Other product lines make use of leftover fabrics discarded by other manufacturers. As well as reducing landfill waste, this also means that the vibrant patchwork-style colourways of many Cotopaxi garments and packs are totally unique.
And that’s the thing about Cotopaxi. Their kit doesn’t just tick the good-guy boxes, it also looks great too – with a retro-inspired aesthetic that channels the best bits of the 80s. Whether it’s a daypack, a bum bag, a windbreaker or a zip-up fleece, their range is built to last and stacked with well-thought-out features for conscientious adventure travellers.
