I am trying to choose a waterproof coat that is not a parka (I tried on a couple of the Barbour parkas and DH could not stop laughing, I just look like I am in fancy dress somehow, just don't work on me)
I like

And

I don't know if a Barbour would be better, but the one I like, the belted utility is a bit too much like my Belstaff maybe.
Any other suggestions gratefully received, I don't like hoods or puffy type jackets.
What do you think?
