Does anyone have this coat from Mango and if so would you recommend? Or, any thoughts on whether this would be warm enough for playground duty?

I also quite like this one... www.gooutdoors.co.uk/marmot-chelsea-coat-womens-p282563 but it's a lot, lot more expensive, and also I prefer the fact the mango one has more about it iykwim.

Thoughts on either? Smile

Both nice but prefer Mango one, bit more stylish.

My friend has the marmot
One . It is really really warm but IMO you don't need tht level of warmth in the uk. I have one from Zara and it's plenty warm enough.

I have one very similar to the Mango one from Comptoir des Cottoniers - bought last year - and i love it. It's super warm, practical and as it's so padded, you don't get wet even if it's teaming down. Go with the Mango and save yourself some cash for something else?

Fab - thanks for that namechange74 not a bad idea!

The Mango one is really nice.

The other one is really not.

Grin - thanks bunny I splurted tea over the keyboard reading that Grin
Ah well, I only do about half an hour of playground duty for 2 mornings, so style over substance is winning - although the Mango one does still look warm I think.
Now onto sizing....are Mango fairly true to size on the whole? Not that I really think that helps me much as I have clothes ranging from 8-12. Is it better to get one that's really snug fitting?
