The Orkan II is built around a three layer eVent® Storm ST construction, combining outstanding waterproof protection with the breathability needed for long days of sustained effort in demanding mountain environments.

The bio based eVent® membrane uses Direct Venting™ technology to allow moisture vapour to escape as you move, helping regulate body temperature without waiting for condensation to build inside the jacket. A recycled ripstop outer fabric provides dependable durability against abrasion, while the recycled inner backer adds comfort throughout extended days on the hill. Fully taped seams and a PFAS free DWR treatment complete a shell designed to keep the elements at bay when conditions become unpredictable.

Every detail has been considered for technical mountain use. The articulated fit allows unrestricted movement over uneven terrain, while the helmet compatible hood provides dependable protection without compromising visibility on exposed ridgelines or during alpine pursuits. Whether worn over lightweight layers in summer or as part of a winter layering system, the Orkan II is built to perform across the seasons.

Constructed using recycled materials and certified to both Global Recycled Standard and OEKO-TEX® standards, the Orkan II reflects Fjern's commitment to creating durable equipment that belongs in the mountains for years to come. Battle tested in challenging conditions and ready for whatever lies beyond boundaries.

Great waterproof jacket

It is a super waterproof jacket that also offers great wind protection. It can be used in harsh conditions when used in combination with a warm underlayer jacket. This is my second Orkan jacket that I bought.

Thanks for the great review and awesome pics, Alenka! Glad the Orkan is keeping you dry out there.

Nice jacket

I am pleased with my jacket but would suggest ordering a size larger than you usually have. Very tight across the hips.

Great jacket

Purchased this to go skiing in March so it has yet to be tested but it’s a really nice jacket. I saw some reviews say to size up, which is what I did and it was definitely the correct thing to do. It’s still a flattering fit without looking oversized and the features are good. Roomy pockets, both inside and outside with a great hood. The jacket looks and feels great. Nice quality all round! Very pleased!

Waterproof Jacket

Brought this jacket in April so have had a couple of months to test it out. I am small and went for a medium for the more relaxed fit, and to put a layer under in the colder months, which was a wise decision, as just wearing the jacket I stayed dry but felt clammy, definitely requires an underlayer jacket/fleece. The sleeves are very long, my hands are always inside the sleeves and never get cold, I did find the bottom of the sleeve below the Velcro adjusters become soaked and not waterproof. The hood is large to fit a helmet, in general use it does flop around on my head, even when adjusted, and the water can run and pool around the chin area. Love the soft chin guard. The outside pockets are not waterproof, so do not put a phone in there unless in a waterproof bag, I found about 1cm of water in the bottom of the pockets. The inside chest pocket is too small for a modern phone. Overall I do like the jacket, it has kept me mostly dry, just slightly disappointed on some of the features. I thought it would be better considering the price paid.

Love the colour

Bought from another supplier.

The pros
Love the colour - just what I’ve been looking for.

Good price.

High-set front pockets for easy access plus internal pocket.

Cons
Helmet-compatible hood means that it is enormous.

Tightening mechanism for hood-cord is set quite high on the side of the head meaning that plentiful folded fabric (remember hood is big) bunches up creating a deep channel for rainwater.

I had to tighten hood cords fully to try to get a close-fitting hood - still not perfect. The result was super-long lengths of cord hanging at the front which would whip around in windy weather.

I had to need size up from xs to s - I usually wear 8 - as the underarms felt tight with winter layers.

I’m returning the jacket.

Thanks for the feedback, Barbara!

We're glad to hear that the color and pockets were a win. Your feedback on the hood and fit is duly noted. Sorry that the jacket wasn't a perfect match in the end.

Orkan

Jacket looked amazing. I ordered the XL though normal size is Lge. Tried it on and sadly there was more than enough room over the shoulders and arms but very tight when I fastened the zip. So wanted it to fit / colour amazing. Sadly sent it back and awaiting refund.

Excellent jacket

Brilliant jacket very comfy and pockets in good places only downside I would be happier with more substantial zips. The zips are ok but could be better.

Lovely Jacket but Fit Not Good

I loved everything about this jacket - especially the bright colour - but returned it. I am a UK size 8-10 and a small jacket fitted nicely except round the shoulders/armpits which were way too tight.

I'm looking at buying this jacket: Womens Orkan II Waterproof Shell Jacket (Teal/Orange) - its says its an athletic fit & the photos of your models show it to be a very snug fit.

I am a UK size 10 but I want to be able to wear layers underneath, a thermal top, jumper and a down jacket, would a size medium be spacious?

Thanks

Fjern

UK 10 corresponds to a size S, and the Orkan does have an athletic fit. It is designed to accomodate layers, but if you plan to wear several thicker pieces underneath, sizing up to an M is usually the better option. If you’re unsure, it’s best to check the garment measurements in the size guide (under the dimensions tab) and compare them with a jacket you already own that fits you well.
