The Didriksons Gila Parka is a thoughtfully engineered women's parka that delivers reliable weather protection without compromising on style or comfort. Drawing on over 110 years of Swedish outerwear expertise, Didriksons has created a parka that performs equally well on a blustery coastal walk as it does on the daily commute.
Built with a 10,000mm water column and fully taped seams, the Gila keeps you dry in sustained rainfall and blustery conditions. The breathable fabric, allows moisture vapour to escape, preventing that clammy feeling that can build up during active wear. The combination of waterproof, windproof, and breathable properties makes this a genuinely versatile jacket for the unpredictable British climate.
The Gila goes beyond basic weather protection with a well-considered ventilation system. A two-way front zip allows you to open the jacket from the bottom for airflow and ease of movement, while a ventilation opening under the rear yoke releases excess heat during more active pursuits. A button-secured inner front placket provides additional ventilation control, letting you fine-tune comfort throughout the day.
Cut in a regular fit with an A-line silhouette — narrower at the shoulders and gradually wider towards the hem — the Gila offers a feminine shape that accommodates layering underneath. The fixed hood is adjustable in multiple ways for a secure, personalised fit and reliable protection against driving rain and wind. Velcro-adjustable cuffs seal out draughts and allow you to roll sleeves when conditions warm up.
