Ridgeline Clothing | All You Need To Know About This New Brand
We are very excited to introduce Ridgeline to Outdoor and Country, a brand who has developed a reputation for high performance outdoor clothing. Our Ridgeline menswear and womenswear collection suits active people who spend their time outdoors, whether for work or leisure. Ridgeline clothing withstands and protects against the harshest weathers, with durable and functional fabrics. However, they’re also timeless in design, with a clean colour palette and a sleek presentation.
1. Where is Ridgeline from?
Ridgeline’s story begins in the untamed landscapes of New Zealand in the 1990s. In rural New Zealand, the weather can turn in an instant, and the terrain shifts from dense forests to open beaches, from volcanic peaks to deep fjords. Anyone working or exploring out there needed clothing that could stand up to it all.
Ridgeline was created with those people in mind. Hunters were among the first to adopt the brand, drawn to gear that felt light and comfortable even on long treks. But it was the near-silent fabrics that truly set Ridgeline apart, the materials allowed wearers to slip quietly through the wilderness.
Born from a landscape that demands resilience and versatility, Ridgeline coats, jackets and smocks were designed to perform.. And from those rugged New Zealand beginnings, Ridgeline of New Zealand took shape — a brand built by the wild, for the wild.
2. Is Ridgeline clothing good?
Ridgeline clothing is built to perform — tough, reliable, and designed for the outdoors. Born in the harsh landscapes of New Zealand, it quickly earned a following among hunters and farmers. Today, the brand is just as at home in the UK, worn across farms, outdoor workplaces, and country trails.
What makes Ridgeline so widely loved? Its reliability. Staying warm and dry is essential, whether you’re tackling a long day of farm work or enjoying a casual walk. Ridgeline trousers, coats, and jackets are designed to keep the weather out, so you can focus on the task at hand — not soggy layers.
But it’s not just for work. Lightweight, comfortable, and versatile, Ridgeline has become a go-to for dog walks, weekend strolls, and countryside adventures. You’ll even spot it on country lifestyle influencers online, proving that rugged performance and everyday style can go hand in hand.

3. Are Ridgeline coats and jackets waterproof?
Most Ridgeline coats and jackets provide excellent protection against wind and rain, but the level of weather resistance can vary.
Many feature advanced 2-layer construction for full waterproofing, while others use 3-layer technology for even greater durability, breathability, and all-weather performance.
The following products showcase these reliable constructions, keeping you dry and protected no matter the conditions:
4. How do you wash a Ridgeline jacket?
It’s important to clean your Ridgeline coat carefully, as rough handling can result in the waterproof membrane being damaged. Therefore the safest way to wash a Ridgeline jacket is by hand. The care label inside your jacket will provide more specific instructions, but as a general rule we recommend that you keep the coat away from heat sources, such as tumble dryers, radiators and irons. This can result in sealed seams coming away from the rest of the fabric. You should also not use any chemicals or cleaning products that are not designed for use on clothing with a waterproof membrane.
We love Ridgeline clothing as it is the perfect choice for those seeking reliable, durable, and versatile apparel. From its specialised focus on outdoor activities to the use of high-quality materials and innovative technical features, Ridgeline will withstand the rigors of nature while providing comfort and performance. And, with a commitment to environmental responsibility, Ridgeline establishes itself not just as a clothing brand but as a trusted companion on adventures.
