Best ever coat

I know it's not AIBU but still, the world of coats is being unreasonable and I need your help.

I moved to the U.K. from a hot country 2 years ago.

My DCs play a lot of sport, all winter, all over the bloody place, in all weathers... Anyway- I need the BEST COAT EVER please! Keeps me warm, can get in and out of the car easily, good pockets, hood, waterproof.

I bought a Mountain Warehouse puffa (long) when I first came back. It isn't waterproof really, it's ripped walking past a bush and the zip has gone. (Also it's a bit too fitted so I look like a sausage in it 🤢) I spent ages down the rabbit hole trying to find it and I just started looking for a replacement and am already overwhelmed.

Don't have much cash to flash, but prepared to spend in the region of £100-150.

Is there a winning coat? Please help.

Some good prices on Didriksons here, just double check that if you get one it's fully waterproof and is insulated as they do light raincoats too.

I've got a Regatta waterproof parker - totally waterproof, really warm, not bulky. It washes well. 4 year old and going strong. Big hood, which is adjustable. Best coat I've had, and a lot cheaper than most mentioned.
