Sprayway

Sprayway men's outdoor clothing at Crib Goch Outdoor

About Sprayway

Sprayway started in 1974 in a room above a launderette in Chorlton, Manchester. Founders John Hunt and Simon Wright set out to make affordable nylon cagoules for sailors, and the rule John built that first jacket around still holds today: function first. More than 50 years on, Sprayway is still based near Manchester, but the range has moved from the water to the hills.

Its waterproofs are built with either GORE-TEX or Sprayway's own HydroDRY® fabric, and the brand has been a member of the Fair Wear Foundation since 2012, so the factories making its clothing are checked against a code of fair labour practices.

Who Sprayway is made for

Sprayway makes kit for people who get out in British weather and get out often. Most of the range is built around walking, from a low-level loop with the dog to a long day on the hill, and plenty of it works just as well back in town.

On the hill, the jackets do the heavy lifting, from light, packable shells to GORE-TEX for the wettest days. Underneath, comfortable walking trousers and warm fleeces take care of the miles and the cold lunch stops.

When the sun does come out, Sprayway shorts and quick-drying T-shirts keep you cool on summer trails and trips away. If your plans include the ridge we're named after, come and talk to us first and we'll make sure your kit is up to it.
