Where to find a long raincoat with a hood?

I'm looking for a long raincoat (pref below the knees) with a hood to keep me dry when pushing the buggy. I got soaked last week! :( Went shopping at the weekend but couldn't find anything suitable, and very few were even knee length, never mind longer.

Has anyone seen anything like this in the shops recently, or have any suggestions of which shops or websites might sell them?

I am interested in one too? Gap had a nice one last year - but this years offering is one of those puffy ones which make me look hugh

The Stadium Squall coat from Lands End is what you need.

They don't seem to have them atm, probably because they're into summer stuff just now, but you can get them on ebay or amazon sometimes. The sizing comes up big, but they are properly waterproof and fleece-lined, ie warm.

Otherwise Boden have intermittently done hooded waterproof coats, as long as you can cope with big spotty prints.

You mean you haven't seen my legendary coat thread? Hang on...

Here you go...
Merrell Wakefield and Northface summat or other came out on top...

Not all below the knee though, although bum covering (ie thigh length) was one of the criteria...
