The school run coat

[Bonsoir]

Fabulous new parka by Aigle that I spotted in the store window yesterday.

Another try

How much?

Don't know why my link won't work! Anyway, it's called Brokfield.

EUR 230 in France.

Your link does work.

How weird - it doesn't for me!

Not convinced that 230 euros is good value for something to drag on for school run. But I have been known to leave the house at 8.45 wearing ds1's coat by accident, leaving him to wear mine.

It's a lot prettier than the Boden Parka and much the same price.

Well anything is better value/more stylish than Boden. Nice coat and you know not a bad price for something you might wear day in day out for a couple of years

Oooh nice, I can't go past a good coat! Looks much sturdier than the northface number I bought last year

I haven't inspected it in the shop (will do), only in the window, but it looked very well finished.

This looks ideal, thanks.

I think it looks really nice and its worth spending on practical but stylish stuff you wear lots.

I love aigle. Have the most amazing quilted long coat in soft grey. Could make me look like Nellie the elephant, but it is incredibly warm and waterproof.

Love the parka. But alread have very practical raincoat, alas.

Any recommendations for coat in size 18?
I really could look like Nelly the elephant if not careful!!!

I really like it

Me likey.

The only thing is the coulour. I'd be looking for something darker than that as I have dogs and am spectacularly messy myself.

Have been inItaly this last three weeks and had to prize myself away from all the white and cream coats as a. I don't live in Rome and b. see above comment re messiness.

They only deliver to France :(

Don't worry, Aigle has loads of distributors in the UK - you'll definitely find it somewhere!

Bonsoir your next challenge is to find the new version of the navy Ailge cuckmere coat! Apparently its coming.....and i want to snap it up before it sells out in my size! Please

Navy..rubs hands together...navy works for me.

The Cuckmere is here in black and white, but no navy yet!

Do you think it's waterproof? Id like a waterproof parka for dog walking but I really mean proper parka styling not an anorak.

that coat is beautiful but I really can't afford it. Please find me something equally delicious at half the price!!!

I like that, Bonsoir, good spot. I bought the Cuckmere last year and it has been worth every penny.
