Womens Safari Jackets

Page Updated: Sept 2022

Practical and stylish women's safari jackets and vests are quite hard to find. Women often end up buying men's safari clothing and compromising on fit and comfort.

The features of good women's safari jackets are much the same as for men. However, if you are not hunting or walking in the African bush, you can be more flexible with muted colours, not so many pockets or shooting features and cosiness for chilly early mornings.

Choosing A Good Women's Safari Jacket

Comfortable, lightweight and unrestrictive construction for possibly many hours of wear.
Made of natural or hi-tech fabric that will be sweat absorbent and quiet if wearing it while walking.
Cooling features possibly vents and mesh but warm enough on cold mornings.
Optional zip-off long sleeves to convert to a vest.
Pockets - better to have buttons rather than velcro which can be noisy. Too many pockets can be a disadvantage if you can't remember where you put something and have to rummage through all 21 pockets to find it.
Other optional features - cartridge loops, shoulder padding for shooting.
Khaki, green, brown colours rather than white or any bright colour.
