Can anybody advise what they're like size wise? I want it to be fitted and I'm a size 10/12 depending on the shop.

Has anyone seen the Merlot wine colour in RL? It looks more brown than red on the website, quite like the green too. I'm an 'autumn' so green should be the one to go for but I'm worried it's too 'in season' and I need it to last yonks!

I've just sent a Merrell haven in peppercorn back and the postage cost me £8.90 so don't want any costly mistakes Shock. The colour wasn't right and it was too big.

Need something to keep me warm pitch side this winter and don't want to look like a Michelin man Grin

TIA

I'm a 12/14 and I've got the medium. Can't comment on the colour but can certainly say it will keep you warm. I really toyed with getting mine as it was so expensive but I haven't looked back.

I am a Size 10 but ended up going for the medium as the small did fit but was a bit snug. I love mine..... warm & waterproof and not too Michelin manlike!

Thanks for your replies. I'm definitely nearer the M on their measurements but then again I was on the Merrell and that was a bit big.

It is a bloody expensive coat though but this is my 4th year freezing my ass off on a Sunday and I'm determined this year I'm going to be warm.

I'd say medium, can't comment on colour as I have the charcoal. I do find it a bit bulky though. It withstood harsh usa winters well.
