Description
Scott Rain Coat FT Waterproof Jacket
The Scott Rain Coat FT Jacket is a longer-length waterproof jacket designed to keep you dry before and after a ride, at the bike park or whenever you’re spending time outdoors in wet weather. Whether you’re standing around after a race, unloading your bike in a rainy car park, watching friends tackle the trails or heading out for a dog walk, the Rain Coat FT provides practical protection from the elements. Its mid-thigh length offers additional coverage compared with a conventional waterproof jacket, making it particularly useful when you’re spending time outside rather than riding.
Built using Scott’s DRYOsphere 2.5-layer waterproof fabric, the jacket offers a 15,000mm waterproof rating, 10,000g/m/24hr breathability and fully taped seams to help keep rain out. DUROxpand four-way stretch provides freedom of movement, while the regular fit allows comfortable layering over your cycling kit or everyday clothing. With a fixed adjustable hood, adjustable cuffs and multiple pockets, it’s a practical outer layer to keep in the car or take along whenever the weather looks unpredictable.

Waterproof Protection for Bike Parks, Race Days and Everyday Adventures
Not every waterproof jacket needs to be designed for riding in. Sometimes you need something to throw on when you’ve finished a muddy trail ride, when you’re waiting for your next uplift at the bike park or when the rain starts while you’re getting your bike ready in the car park. The Scott Rain Coat FT is designed for exactly these situations, providing additional coverage and reliable weather protection when you’re off the bike.
Its longer mid-thigh design helps shield more of your clothing from rain and spray than a conventional waist-length jacket. This makes it particularly useful when standing beside the course at a race, watching friends ride, packing equipment away after a wet session or spending time outdoors in unpredictable British weather. It’s equally practical for everyday activities such as walking the dog, watching outdoor sports or heading out on a rainy day.
DRYOsphere 2.5-Layer Waterproof and Breathable Fabric
The Scott Rain Coat FT uses DRYOsphere 2.5-layer technology to create a waterproof and breathable barrier against wind and rain. With a waterproof rating of 15,000mm (JIS L1092 B), the fabric is designed to withstand wet conditions, while fully taped seams help prevent water entering through the jacket’s stitching.
The fabric also provides a breathability rating of 10,000g/m/24hr (JIS L1099 B1 inverted cup), allowing moisture vapour to escape from inside the jacket. This is particularly useful when you’re moving between activities, carrying equipment, walking around a trail centre or wearing the jacket over additional layers. The breathable construction helps manage internal moisture while maintaining protection from the elements.
DUROxpand Four-Way Stretch for Comfortable Movement
Scott’s DUROxpand technology uses four-way stretch fabric that moves with your body, helping the jacket remain comfortable when bending, reaching and moving around. Whether you’re lifting your bike onto a rack, unloading equipment from the car, adjusting your riding kit or walking over uneven ground, the flexible construction allows a greater range of movement than a rigid outer layer.
Combined with the jacket’s regular fit, the stretch material makes the Rain Coat FT comfortable to wear over cycling clothing, casual layers or additional insulation on colder days. It’s designed to provide useful weather protection without unnecessarily restricting your movement.
Extra Coverage When You’re Off the Bike
One of the standout features of the Scott Rain Coat FT is its mid-thigh length. While traditional cycling jackets are generally cut shorter to accommodate a riding position, the Rain Coat FT provides additional coverage around the hips and upper legs. This makes it particularly useful when standing around in persistent rain or waiting outside for extended periods.
The longer design is ideal for wearing after a ride when you want to stay protected while cooling down, getting changed or packing up your equipment. It also makes the jacket a practical everyday waterproof for activities beyond cycling, particularly when you want more coverage than a standard rain jacket.
Adjustable Hood, Cuffs and Practical Storage
A fixed adjustable hood provides additional protection for your head, while adjustable cuffs allow you to tailor the fit around your wrists and help reduce exposure to wind and rain. These features are particularly useful when conditions change throughout the day or when you’re wearing different layers underneath.
The jacket also features hand pockets with protective flaps and a separate chest pocket, providing convenient storage for smaller essentials such as keys and other items you want to keep close at hand. Together, these practical details make the Rain Coat FT well suited to the demands of race days, bike park visits and everyday outdoor use.
Recycled Polyester and PFAS-Free Water Repellency
The Scott Rain Coat FT is made from 100% recycled polyester and features a PFAS-free durable water-repellent (DWR) treatment. The DWR finish helps water bead and run off the outer fabric, supporting the waterproof construction by reducing surface saturation.
The use of recycled polyester reduces reliance on virgin polyester in the fabric, while the PFAS-free treatment avoids intentionally added PFAS in the water-repellent finish. As with other waterproof garments, following the manufacturer’s care instructions will help maintain the performance of the outer treatment over time.

Who Is the Scott Rain Coat FT Jacket For?
The Scott Rain Coat FT Jacket is ideal for mountain bikers, road cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts who want reliable waterproof protection when they’re not actually riding. It’s particularly useful for staying dry at bike parks, waiting around at trail centres, standing beside the course at races or getting your equipment ready in a wet car park.
Its longer cut also makes it a practical jacket for everyday activities, from walking the dog to watching outdoor sports or heading out in unpredictable British weather. With a regular fit, four-way stretch and lightweight construction, it’s designed to be comfortable over your usual clothing or cycling kit.
For riders looking for something to throw on before or after a ride, rather than a close-fitting waterproof jacket to cycle in, the Rain Coat FT offers a versatile combination of weather protection, comfort and everyday practicality. Keep it in the car for wet race days, take it along to the bike park or use it whenever you need dependable coverage outdoors.
