Trespass Women’s Waterproof Jacket Qikpac – shell rain jacket with hood, sealed seams and packs into a pouch

Quick overview

If you’re after a women’s waterproof rain jacket that’s practical for day-to-day UK weather, the Trespass Qikpac is built around sensible outdoor shell basics. It’s designed to keep wind and rain off, and it folds away into a pouch for when you don’t want a bulky coat rattling around in your bag.

On paper, it’s in the “use it often” category: sealed seams for water resistance, a full-length front zip, an adjustable hood with grown-on shape, and an overall layout that aims to be easy to live with (two zip pockets, elasticated cuffs, and a ventilated back yoke to help manage dampness).

What matters most in wet weather

Where this jacket can make a difference is in the small details you actually notice when the sky turns. The waterproof rating is stated as water resistance up to 5000 mm, and the seams are described as sealed. That matters because even a decent outer layer can underperform if water finds its way through stitching.

It also claims wind resistance, plus breathability up to 5000 MVP. Again, that’s not a guarantee you’ll stay bone-dry in every downpour, but it’s a solid profile for typical rainy commutes, dog walks, and weekend errands.

And the back yoke is ventilated, which is a nice touch if you tend to get warm while walking or cycling at a casual pace.

Key features you’ll use (not just read about)

The Qikpac’s design focuses on coverage and everyday usability:

• An adjustable grown-on hood to help shield your head without needing constant readjustment.
• Elasticated cuffs for a better seal around the wrists.
• Two zip pockets for keeping essentials more secure than open pockets.
• A full-body length front zip, plus an internal full-length front facing/cover to help reduce draughts and splash-back.
• A ventilated back yoke intended to improve comfort when you’re active.
• Contrast zips with a low-profile look, which can be a bonus if you prefer a cleaner outer layer.

There’s also the “packs away in pouch” idea. That’s particularly handy if you only wear a rain jacket when you need it, or if you want one in the car for sudden weather changes.

What you’ll notice in everyday use

Imagine you’re heading out for a supermarket run on a grey afternoon. The hood sits more naturally than a detached one, the elastic cuffs help keep the sleeves from riding up when you’re carrying bags, and the zip pockets give you somewhere straightforward for keys and a phone.

If you’re outdoors for longer—say, a school pick-up or a dog walk—the ventilated back yoke is there to reduce that clammy feeling you can get in some waterproof shells. It’s not a miracle, but it’s a practical attempt to make the jacket more breathable.

One limitation to keep in mind: waterproof shells are always a compromise between weather protection and comfort, so if you run hot or expect heavy, prolonged exertion in sustained rain, you may still find it less comfortable than more breathable or more “athletic” rain layers.

Who it suits (and who should look elsewhere)

It’s a good fit if you want a lightweight-style waterproof jacket approach—one that prioritises sealed seams, wind resistance, and easy pocketing for essentials, while also being easy to stow.

It may not be for you if you need a rain jacket for high-output activities where you expect maximum ventilation and reduced heat build-up. It also depends quite a bit on your routine: if you live in truly extreme wet conditions for long stretches, you might want to compare alternatives that place more emphasis on breathability and long-duration comfort.

Worth considering if you often pack a rain layer for travel, or if you want one jacket that covers commuting, casual walking, and day trips without turning into an all-day burden.

Is it worth it?

If your main goal is a waterproof, wind-resistant women’s shell that’s easy to pack away and still feels practical on-body, the Trespass Qikpac makes sense. The sealed seams and adjustable grown-on hood are the kind of details that tend to matter more than people expect.

You might want to skip it if you’re chasing the most breathable option for long, sweaty sessions in rain or if you know you’ll be out in heavy weather for extended periods—because even with the stated breathability rating, a waterproof shell will always trap some warmth.

Buying verdict: go for it if you want a reliable “grab-and-go” rain jacket for everyday life. Don’t overthink it, but do check that the fit and hood style suit you, since comfort in the hood area is often what makes or breaks a rain jacket.
