Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

7mesh Guardian Terra Jacket Overview

The 7mesh Guardian Terra is a storm-tested, high-alpine shell built for demanding multi-sport adventures in severe conditions. Designed as the most capable jacket in the Guardian range, Terra uses 3-layer GORE-TEX PRO ePE construction for uncompromising waterproof protection, windproof performance and long-term durability.

Constructed with a heavier 70D face fabric for increased resilience compared to lighter Apex and Air models, Terra is built for rugged mountain use where abrasion resistance and weather protection are critical. Tailored in 7mesh’s Guardian fit, it offers expanded articulation through the arms and pits to support layering and unrestricted movement in technical terrain.

Best For

  • High-alpine mountaineering
  • Winter climbing
  • Severe mountain weather
  • Multi-sport alpine missions
  • Layered cold-weather systems
  • Technical, storm-prone environments

Materials and Construction

3-Layer GORE-TEX PRO ePE (70D Face Fabric)

The Terra is built with a 3-layer GORE-TEX PRO ePE laminate featuring a robust 70D nylon face fabric. This heavier construction enhances durability and abrasion resistance for demanding alpine use. The ePE membrane delivers fully waterproof, windproof and highly breathable performance while reducing environmental impact compared to traditional PTFE-based membranes.

What Makes GORE-TEX PRO Different?

GORE-TEX PRO is designed for:

  • Maximum waterproof reliability in extended storms
  • Higher long-term durability
  • Improved breathability during sustained effort
  • Greater resistance to contamination from dirt, sweat and abrasion

This is the membrane category typically used in high-end mountaineering shells.

What Is ePE?

The ePE membrane (expanded polyethylene) is a newer generation GORE membrane designed to reduce environmental impact compared to older PTFE-based membranes. It achieves the same fully waterproof, windproof performance while using less environmentally persistent chemistry.

PFC and PFAS-Free Fabric

The jacket is constructed from PFC- and PFAS-free materials, helping reduce environmental impact while maintaining high-performance weather protection. The Guardian Terra uses a PFC-free DWR, meaning it repels water without relying on long-chain fluorocarbons.

Even if the DWR eventually wears down, the GORE-TEX PRO membrane remains fully waterproof. Reproofing simply restores surface water beading.

Features

Helmet-Compatible Cross Pull Hood

The cross-pull hood system provides multi-point adjustment for a precise fit in storm conditions. Designed to fit over a helmet, it delivers full coverage while maintaining peripheral visibility.

StowAway Snap

A hood stow system allows you to secure the hood when not in use, reducing bulk and improving aerodynamics in calmer conditions.

Four Pit Zips & Multi-Point Venting

Underarm and bicep vents provide strategic ventilation to manage heat during high-output efforts. The multiple venting points allow adaptable airflow without compromising protection.

Two-Way Centre Front Zipper

The two-way zip enables customisable ventilation and improved mobility, especially when wearing a harness or accessing lower layers.

Harness-Friendly Hand Pockets

Hand pockets are positioned to remain accessible when wearing a climbing harness or backpack waist belt.

Internal Storage System

Includes a zippered internal security pocket and two large internal mesh dump pockets for gloves, skins or other bulky essentials.

Sleeve Pass Pocket

A dedicated arm pocket allows quick access to lift passes or small essentials.

Glove-Compatible Adjustments

Adjustable cuff openings with durable Velcro closures and one-handed hem pull cords allow quick adjustments while wearing gloves.

Fit and Ride Feel

Fit Profile

The Guardian fit is designed for alpine layering systems. It offers a structured yet adaptable silhouette that accommodates insulation layers without excess bulk.

Mobility

360-degree articulation ensures unrestricted overhead reach and dynamic movement ,critical for climbing, scrambling and alpine travel.

Some jackets are designed for fast-moving activities where breathability and packability matter most, while others focus on maximum weather protection for longer days out in typical UK conditions

7mesh Guardian Terra Jacket Review The Guardian Terra is the most protective and durable shell in the 7mesh Guardian family. Where the Guardian Air focuses on minimal weight and the Apex balances durability and mobility, the Terra is built for the harshest mountain conditions where reliability is everything.

What stands out immediately is how solid and confidence-inspiring the jacket feels. The 70D face fabric adds noticeable durability without making the jacket overly stiff, while the GORE-TEX PRO construction delivers the kind of storm protection mountaineers rely on when the weather turns properly hostile.

Despite that rugged build, the Terra still moves exceptionally well thanks to its articulated Guardian fit. For climbers, alpine hikers and winter mountaineers who expect their shell to handle real mountain abuse, this is a jacket built for serious conditions.
How Durable Is the Guardian Terra? Very durable, in fact, durability is one of the main reasons this jacket exists. The Guardian Terra uses a 70D nylon face fabric, which is significantly tougher than the lighter materials used in the Guardian Apex and Guardian Air models.

That heavier construction improves abrasion resistance against rock, pack straps and repeated alpine use. Combined with the GORE-TEX PRO laminate, it creates a shell designed for demanding environments where gear needs to withstand prolonged exposure to wind, rain, snow, and rough terrain.

For climbers, guides and serious mountain travellers, that extra durability can make a real difference over multiple seasons of use.
Is It Good for Winter Mountaineering? Yes, the Guardian Terra is specifically designed for harsh alpine environments and layered cold-weather systems. Its Guardian fit allows room for insulation layers while maintaining excellent mobility for climbing, scrambling and technical movement.

Features like the helmet-compatible hood, harness-friendly pockets, multiple ventilation points and glove-friendly adjustments make it well-suited to winter climbing and severe mountain weather.

If you need a shell that can handle wind, driving snow and extended alpine missions, the Terra sits right at the top of the Guardian range.
