Does anyone have a target dry raincoat? Just wondering how the sizing is? ....I am a size 12/14 but don't like my coats to be too fitted. Also what's the quality like? Many thanks Smile

I have a TD raincoat that is 10+ years old and still going strong.

I was a size 16 at the time so bought a size 16 which was quite generous in sizing but wanted to be able to get jumpers etc on underneath. I am now at least 2 stone heaver, generally wear an 18-20 and still wear it, just minus the heavy layers.

I dont know what the situation is now: their sizing used to be a bit hit and miss depending on the style, but they might have tightened that up now. All the coats were made in China, often on the same production line as the likes of Regatta. There were occasional blips in quality but head office generally made sure that any items not up to snuff were generally sifted out at the warehouse.

Disclaimer: I used to work for them.

I think they are large for size - I am 12 on top 14 on bottom and have a 12 - it is not particularly tight on my lower half. I have been really pleased with it btw (disclaimer: I don't work for them Grin )
