About Ubr
What is UBR's waterproof rating?
Most UBR jackets feature the Regulator™ membrane with a 20,000mm waterproof rating and 20,000g/24h breathability. This puts them at the top of the technical outerwear market — equivalent to expedition-grade Gore-Tex performance. The DWR coating is re-activatable; tumble dry on low heat annually to restore surface repellency.
Down or PrimaLoft — which is better for UK weather?
PrimaLoft® synthetic insulation is the more practical choice for the UK. It retains approximately 98% of its warmth when wet and dries quickly — unlike natural down, which loses loft in damp conditions. Down offers superior warmth-to-weight and packability in dry conditions, but for persistent rain and coastal weather, PrimaLoft® performs more reliably.
How does UBR sizing work?
UBR uses European sizing and is cut as a true-to-size tailored fit designed to layer over shirts and business wear without excess bulk. Size up one step if you plan to layer over a blazer or thick knitwear. As a reference: a Canada Goose Medium wearer typically takes a UBR Size 50 (L) if not layering over formal clothing.
Is UBR worth the price?
UBR is priced between Arc'teryx Veilance and Canada Goose — justified by the combination of expedition-grade technical performance, Norwegian-engineered fit, and longevity-focused construction. The brand is designed for a 10+ year lifespan, which changes the cost-per-wear calculation significantly. They have earned organic endorsement from Pep Guardiola and Erik ten Hag, neither of whom are paid to wear them on the touchline.
What is included in the UBR warranty?
UBR provides full manufacturer warranty coverage against material and construction defects through authorised retailers. OD's handles all warranty claims directly — if you have an issue with a jacket purchased from us, contact us in store or by phone and we'll coordinate the resolution.
