The Schiehallion Single Ventile® Jacket is designed for windproof and light shower proof use. The design draws on traditional styling from the cagoule era, it's virtue is in its simplicity. The Schiehallion offers excellent weather protection and durability as well as a 'no frills' style. It packs away easily and is lightweight.

The Schiehallion features an integral hood with volume adjuster, velcro closure cuffs, front storm flap with velcro closure and large pockets with storm flaps.

This jacket is named after Schiehallion - in English "Fairy Hill of the Caledonians' - the well known mountain in the Scottish Central Highlands where contour lines were invented as part of an 18th century experiment to determine the mass of the earth . Find out more in our Glossary>.

Comfortable and with low rustle, it's an ideal jacket for walking and nature watching. See the Braemar Smock for a single Ventile® Smock design and the Talorc Jacket for a Hybrid Ventile® solution.

    Inferior to Talorc In Every Way

    Posted by Kritagya Burathoki on 2nd Jun 2023

    The hood shape is very strange compared to the Talorc which actually looks designed to suit the human head. The waist and hips is extremely spacious as if designed for a pregnant woman unlike how relatively "slim" the Talorc looks. Also so much velcro and strings everywhere, the point of a Ventile jacket is to minimise plastic.

    I only bought this because I wanted a light single ventile hoodie useful for summer holidays but I guess I'll be using Talorc hybrid for its superior construction despite being a bit too thick summer.
    Now I just want a single ventile Talorc.

    Thanks for your feedback Kritagya. The Schiehallion is not designed to be slim fit like the Talorc however we will look at the points you raise and contact you directly.

    Schiehallion Ventile Cagoule, short length and arms

    Posted by Marit Helene Jensen on 17th Jun 2022

    I just got my jacket, and I’m not very happy with the size. In the sizing guide the chest measurement was 112 cm, my jacket is at least 135 cm, so way too big for me.
    Hilltrek: Our measurement guide refers to the your chest size and not the finished item size. We would be glad to exchange with a smaller size

    Schiehallion Ventile Cagoule

    Posted by Rachel Leah Greene on 8th Apr 2022

    It's beautifully made and provides the rain and wind protection that I needed. I'm happy to have found a great company that still works with ventile fabrics. It has worked well for x-c skiing in the Adirondacks, hiking in the Smoky Mountains and will also serve me well for my next job in Vancouver, BC.

    Posted by Margaret Burden on 30th Jan 2021

    I wanted a lightweight waterproof jacket made from natural fibre for daily use when walking my dog. This jacket absolutely fits the bill. Been tried and tested in lots of rain and I have kept dry inside. 2 minor issues - the hood is not a very good fit and there is a lot of velcro to get caught in my gloves etc. Velcro on the pockets and full run to secure the flap covering the zip. Delivery was very slow - ordered on 7 November and didn't arrive until 14 January. I am planning to order another jacket I am so pleased with this one.

    Schiehallion single Ventile parka

    Posted by Sebastian on 9th Dec 2020

    Just received my custom body and arms length parka. Perfect fit. Had been looking for some "non military"-looking lightweight but robust hooded classic parka in Ventile. Exactly as promised. Well made, not bulky to store in a backpack, but good protection against wind and rain. Will use it for longer walks in the woods and hillsides.

    Schiehallion Cagoule

    Posted by Mr AF Bell on 23rd Apr 2018

    Velcro on cuffs extends too far around cuff and sleeve sticks to jacket when open. No inner pocket and side pockets too high making difficult to get at flaps. Waterproofing even less than expected. Materials used, of high quality, workmanship good and fit perfect

    Thank you for your review Mr Bell.
    We will review the design based on your comments.
    As regards waterproofing, the Schiehallion is made from Single Ventile therefore not fully waterproof.
    It should however keep you dryer than synthetic windproofs.
