A waterproof designed around women - not just sized for them.

At approximately 180g, Gaia Ultra combines a lightweight, soft-touch 2.5-layer fabric with 15,000mm HH waterproof protection and 15,000 g/m²/24h breathability.

Technical enough for the British weather you can't control. Light, soft and comfortable enough to forget you're wearing it.

Because Gaia is about much more than numbers on a spec sheet.

We thought about how a waterproof actually feels when you're running. Whether it moves with you. Whether you have room through your hips. Whether your hood stays where it should. Whether you feel comfortable when the miles get long.

Because we're female trail and ultra runners too.

The elasticated hem moves with your body and gives you room through the hips, without that rigid cut-off feeling. The dropped rear hem gives you extra coverage as you move. And the ponytail-compatible hood? Because your ponytail shouldn't pull your hood halfway off your head.

The fabric feels soft, light and flexible. Thumb loops give you that little bit of extra coverage when the weather turns. And when the rain clears, Gaia packs neatly into its own hood and disappears into your race vest.

No bulk. No stiff, noisy shell. No feeling like you're running in someone else's jacket.

And of course, we made it colourful.

Because feeling protected doesn't mean blending into muted tones.

This is Wild Lilac. This is Gaia Ultra.

Made for wild weather. Made for finding freedom. Made for her.
