With Pre-Order, you can purchase the latest items added to our store in advance of them arriving with us.

Your Pre-Order is prioritised (at no additional charge); meaning that as soon as the product arrives with us, we can wrap it straight back up; ready for collection via Click & Collect or despatch to you — it often never even hits the stock room shelves!

Pre-Launch

Exchanges - FREE

If you would like to exchange any items in your order, we are able to offer a free postage label once per order. If the item you would like in exchange is out of stock or unavailable, you can exchange for any item of the same or greater value, or we can process a refund. In the event of a refund, our normal returns policy will apply; £4 will be deducted from the refund for the cost of the postage label. If you are exchanging for an item of greater value, you will need to pay the difference and our Returns team will contact you to arrange this. Click here to generate your free postage label for an exchange.

Alternatively should you not wish to wait, you can place a new order for the desired replacement and return the unwanted Good(s) for a refund. We acknowledge that this might seem more complicated, but this is the fastest way to ensure that you receive the goods you require.

Any returns sent back requesting an exchange will be refunded in line with our returns process.

Orders placed using Klarna cannot be exchanged - if you wish to change items on a Klarna order, you will need to place a new order and return your original item for a refund. Should you wish to return Klarna orders using our postage label service you will receive a payment request for £4, which will need to be paid in full before we can process your refund. Should you wish to avoid this delay, you would have to source your own returns postal service.

Refunds - £4 per Label

If you are returning your item(s) for a full or partial refund then we will deduct £4 from the amount refunded as payment for the label if used. Any returns sent back requesting a refund will be refunded in line with our returns policy. Please scroll down to see how to return unwanted items. Knives & Axes can NOT be returned using this service. Knives and axes can only be returned using Royal Mails Click & Drop whereby you will have to select the age verification service which you are required to do by law before shipping bladed objects. Royal Mail will not accept knives or axes over the counter, it must be done online.

International Returns

For international customers returning goods you MUST mark the parcel and returns form as a "Return" in order to correctly avoid customs charges. Should you encounter customs charges upon the entry of your parcel into the UK we will not be responsible for paying these and your goods will be returned to you. In most cases the courier will not refund your postage costs. If you are returning an item from outside the UK, you are responsible for the postage costs.

For Faulty/Damaged or Incorrect Orders

Please do not return items to us before receiving confirmation to do so.

Please make sure to read information on Faulty/Damaged items below.

We offer convenient returns on orders to the UK (Mainland Only) through Royal Mail. This is available ONCE per order. To use our convenient returns label you will need to have access to a Royal Mail Post Office. If your returned parcel is over 61cm x 46cm x 46cm then you may be unable to return it using this method and additional charges may apply if you wish to continue. If you are unable to access these options (or if you would simply prefer not to) then you are welcome to return the order using your own shipping method. Please ensure the service you use corresponds to the size/weight/value of the item. We regret to inform you that we cannot be held responsible for returned goods that become lost or damaged in transit. We therefore strongly recommend that you use a recorded/insured delivery service and keep a record of this and track your item.

So orders placed after the 07/10/24 which are returned before the 07/01/25 will be entitiled to a refund should all other criteria be met as detailed here and on our Terms & Conditions.

How to arrange your return?

For Unwanted/Exchanging items:

Before returning your item(s) make sure to read the below checklist. Orders placed using Klarna cannot be exchanged. If you wish to change your item you will need to place a new order and return your original item for a refund.

  1. Make sure you received the item within the last 28 days (if returning outside our Extended Christmas Returns Period).
  2. Check that the product is in its original condition from when it was purchased. This includes product tags and any product packaging that came with it.
  3. Print, complete & include in your parcel the Returns Form. If you do not have a printer please use this as guidance when writing your return note.
  4. Package the item(s) carefully using appropriate protective packaging. DO NOT tape or stick to the product box as this needs to be resold.
  5. For UK Returns using our Returns Label - Create your Royal Mail Label Here. If your parcel is not within the size available you will have to source your own returns service. If you do not have a printer, use the link above to create a Royal Mail label, and then show the QR code on your phone at the Post Office.
  6. For International or UK Returns NOT using our Returns Label - Please use your own method (we are unable to cover the costs incurred).
  7. Either take your parcel to the Post Office, or book a Royal Mail Parcel Collect pick-up by clicking here.
  8. Please note that at this stage (before the item(s) are received by us) you are responsible for the item(s) and therefore we recommend that you carefully package the item(s) and purchase any relevant insurance from the courier (if not using a returns label from us).
  9. We will aim to confirm receipt of the item(s) within 2 working days of receiving them. If it is possible, we will also confirm the refund/exchange at the same time.

For Faulty/Damaged items:

  1. Locate your receipt of purchase of the goods (either the email or physical receipt).
  2. Contact us at your earliest convenience by either emailing customerservice@cribgochoutdor.com or phoning us with details about your faulty/damaged item(s). We will provide a Returns Form for you to fill in and send back to us at your earliest convenience.
  3. We will then contact you and inform you of the next stage. DO NOT return items to us before receiving confirmation to do so. We will provide a FREE returns label if we require the item back. We will NOT refund your returns postage if you decide to send the item back using your own method unless confirmed before you send the item back. We may need to contact the manufacturer/supplier before reaching a decision, in which case we will advise you, this can take up to 14 days with some suppliers.


Returns Contract

We are unable to handle and inspect returned items unless they are clean and dry due to Health and Safety regulations. This is in particular reference to Outdoor Clothing and Footwear. This clause is in accordance with the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.

Under the Consumer Contracts Regulations you have the legal right to cancel your order within 14 days of receipt of your goods (with the exception of any made to order items). You do not need to give us any reason for cancelling your contract nor will you have to pay any penalty. However, you will need to notify us if you wish to cancel your contract, and you then have 14 days to return the goods to us, at your own cost and risk.

You cannot cancel your contract if you have removed any sealed packaging on a product or purchased goods that are non-returnable. Non-returnable items will be stated on their respective product pages. Confirmed Non-returnable items include: Personalised or Special Order items, Underwear, PPE (including climbing equipment).

Helmets can only be returned if the special instructions (included with each helmet) are followed. Helmets must be returned in a box (in addition to their own box) which must be well-padded to prevent damage during transit. Helmets will not be accepted for return if they are returned using inadequate packaging.

If you have received the goods before you cancel your contract then (unless purchasing non-returnable items for which you do not have a right to cancel) you must send the goods back to our contact address at your own cost and risk. If you cancel your contract but we have already processed the goods for delivery you must not unpack the goods when they are received by you and you must send the goods back to us at our contact address at your own cost and risk within 14 days from the date that you tell us you are cancelling your contract.

Once you have notified us that you are cancelling your contract, any sum debited to us from your credit card will be re-credited to your account as soon as possible within 14 days from when we receive the goods back, provided that the goods in question are returned by you and received by us in the condition they were in when delivered to you.

If you then do not return the goods delivered to you, or do not pay the costs of delivery, we will be entitled to deduct the direct costs of recovering the goods from the amount to be re-credited to you. On receipt of the goods and after inspection we will credit you the amount you paid for the goods. Please note that for International orders, a refund will be given on the goods purchased only and NOT the shipping cost.

For international customers returning goods, you must mark the parcel and customs form clearly as "Returned Goods", in order to correctly avoid customs charges. If for any reason customs charges are incurred upon the entry of your parcel into the UK we will not be responsible for paying these, and your goods will be returned to you. In most cases the courier will not refund your postage costs.

Goods returned must be returned in the condition they were received in. This includes all packaging which must be intact and complete, ready for resale. Items must be returned with protective packaging and tape, labels or glue or tape must not be applied directly to product packaging as this will result in damage that affects resell. Returned goods are thoroughly inspected when we receive them, and any goods with signs of damage, use, wear, or that are dirty may not be accepted, or you may be charged a restocking fee. We hold the right to deduct the costs of these damages from the amount to be re-credited to you.

Paramo Alta III Jacket Women's in Outback Red/Wine

Season:AW24

Brand:Paramo

Code:NAU40G

Explore the great outdoors with confidence and style wearing the Paramo Alta III Jacket Womensin Outback Red/Wine, available exclusively at Crib Goch Outdoor. This remarkable jacket is specifically designed for women who enjoy hiking, trekking, and mountain walking in cold and wet conditions. Crafted from the innovative Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric, it offers unrivaled weather protection and efficient sweat management.

The Alta III Jacket Womens is built to withstand the toughest terrains and challenging weather conditions. Its reinforced panels provide added durability and prevent water ingress when carrying a backpack, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable throughout your adventure. The jacket's functional design is focused on your comfort and convenience.

With excellent ventilation options, including upper arm vents that can remain open even in the rain without letting water in, you can easily regulate your body temperature and prevent overheating. The fully adjustable hood with a wire peak guarantees optimal visibility and protection, adapting to your needs in any weather. The jacket's sleeves are designed to be easily pushed up, exposing the forearms for efficient cooling, as they are known to radiate heat.

Practicality is key, and the Alta III Jacket delivers. It features multiple well-placed pockets, both internal and external, ensuring secure storage for your maps, navigation tools, and other essentials. The two-way locking front YKK zip with an internal storm flap provides added protection against the elements. The ergonomic design of the jacket offers full freedom of movement, allowing you to navigate challenging terrains with ease.

One of the standout features of the Alta III Jacket Womens is its use of Nikwax Analogy Waterproof fabric. This fabric is not only highly breathable but also directional, meaning it effectively moves liquid water away from your body, keeping you dry and comfortable. Unlike conventional clothing systems that trap sweat inside, Nikwax Analogy garments allow liquid water to drain away, preventing moisture buildup and rapid chilling when you stop and rest.

The Alta III Jacket Womens truly outperforms traditional breathable membranes. While breathable membranes may allow moisture vapor to pass through, they fail to transport liquid water. This can result in condensation buildup and discomfort during intense physical activity or changing weather conditions. In contrast, the Alta III's Nikwax Analogy fabric ensures efficient moisture management, keeping you dry and comfortable throughout your outdoor pursuits.

When it comes to durability, the Alta III Jacket Womens is second to none. Its robust construction and use of Nikwax Analogy fabric make it highly resistant to wear and tear. In fact, it's so durable that you could puncture it with pins and still stay dry in the rain. Unlike coated or membrane-based garments, this jacket can be easily repaired without compromising its future performance.

Trust the Paramo Alta III Jacket Womens to provide you with exceptional comfort, reliable weather protection, and impressive durability. Available exclusively at Crib Goch Outdoor, your trusted destination for quality outdoor gear. Gear up and embark on your next adventure with the confidence that this jacket will keep you protected and comfortable every step of the way.

Páramo Bold New Look

Paramo is making a change to the way their Branding is displayed on their garments and it will take some time for their product images to reflect this, since they will be phasing out the old with the new. Below is an example as we've already started to see the new branding come through. If you want to check to see which you will be receiving feel free to contact us before placing your order.

Paramo Clothing rebranding

How do I look after this Páramo item?

Water repellency can be inhibited by dirt and residues left by normal washing detergents. It is therefore important to always use a soap based product such as Nikwax Tech Wash®to clean your item and revive water repellency. This item works best if it is water repellent.

If, after cleaning, the fabric still absorbs water it’s time to reproof your item using Nikwax TX.Direct®. This can be very easily done at home using your normal washing machine.

  • Question asked by Eileen Hartigan on 07/12/2023 05:57:16

    Thanks for your question. Paramo is one of those brands that only offer sizes in S, M, L based on chest size. In store we've tried to make it easier by including 10, 12, 14 and I'm inm thr process of doing this online now too. For Paramo Women’s, the gist is; XS = 8, S = 10, M = 12, L = 14, XL = 16 however this does vary slightly if the item is either athletic fit (slightly slim), easy fit (fairly true to size) or the older cut (cascada jackets, probably size up by 1 so an XL is nearer an 18 – 20).

    For yourself, wanting a size 12 I would recommend the medium Paramo Alta III Jacket, which is part of their "easy fit" range. Any other questions please feel free to open a Live Chat or call us on 01286 870 777

  • Is the Paramo Alta III the same sizing/cut as the ladies Paramo cascada or would I need to size up ?
    Question asked by Debra morgan on 09/10/2024 05:55:45
    The Paramo Alta III is a more athletic fit that the Paramo Cascada. You wouldn't necessarily need to size up as they're both designed to fit the same chest. I would say the best course of action if you cannot come in to try both on is to find a measuring tape and to look at the size chart to see which would best fit. Bearing in mind the Paramon Cascada is designed to be more of a relaxed or looser fit than the Paramo Alta II which is designed to follow more closely to the contours of the body
  • In store size conversions
    Question asked by Gillian Housden on 22/12/2022 19:20:37
    In our store we use Red and Blue hangers as well as size cubes with conversions to help us split our mens and womens stock.

    Through our experience of fitting these paramo jackets to many customers a womens alta iii labled as small would be equivalent to size 10
  • How many mm is this proof to? 10000? 20000?
    Question asked by C ODonnell on 04/10/2024 20:41:18

    What’s the Hydrostatic Head of a Paramo?

    Where Gore-Tex has become synonymous with Waterproof, the Hydrostatic head has become the measure. Paramo does not have a Hydrostatic head but all this means is water pressed against it with force will get through. Like when you sit in a puddle, so try not to!

    Outdoor professionals choose Paramo over many Gore-Tex, Per-tex… membranes because if water gets past the initial Nikwax Windproof fabric, which is a treatable water resistant material, the Analogy Pump Liner will send it packing. The Analogy Pump Liner transfers liquid from inside to outside, whereas Gore-Tex only transfers water vapour.

    Unlike Gore-Tex it is third party tested in theLeeds University Rain Room.For at least four hours the material is exposed to 15mm per hour with varying droplet sizes. That’s roughly five times the intensity of normal heavy rain in the UK.Gore-Tex has its place, I just prefer Paramo in Wales… clearly!
