“Lovely quality coat soft fabric. Substantial zip that feels strong. Fit is perfect and I have worn this in very wet and cold weather and have been warm and dry.”
“I'd wanted one of these for a while, so was pleased they recently came back into stock.
SIZE - I was worried about getting the correct size for me, and noted that they were meant to be slightly large, so downsizing was suggested as the practical option. I measured my existing jackets, to see which most closely matched the measurements provided (actual bust size isn't given, it's the measurements of the actual jacket). Although I am a size 10, I tend to buy a 12 to give me room for a few layers underneath. There were no 10s in stock, so I ordered an 8 (with a little trepidation). As it turned out, an 8 gives me plenty of room for layers and mobility of arms, which was a relief. So far, the jacket has been warm enough, windproof and waterproof, so I am happy with it.
The only criticism I have is re: POCKETS - the lower pockets are not very deep and so are not as useful as they could be. It's a shame that there are no 'handwarming' or internal pockets either.”
