Please recommend me a stylish wax jacket

[buttercrumble]

I can't really afford Barbour but could stretch to £159 in a size 16

I've got this one from Jack Murphy. It's nice and fitted and I always get asked where its from.

Ooh thank you ,that was the name of brand that I couldn't remember. How is the sizing please ?

You can easily get a Barbour for that price.

I'd say true to size. I'm a curvy 10/12 with an ample bust and the 12 is fine even over a fairly thick jumper.

Ooh, I like that one Sorrel. Shame there is no hood though :( Although I hate hoods just sometimes wish nice jackets had some!

How warm is it?

I have this. It is reasonably warm and has a concealed hood. Very pleased with it.

If your aunt works for Barbour you can get a Speedway for £20.

Yes a detachable hood (even though I hate them too) would be useful. The fleece lining makes it very warm indeed.

House of Bruar, Perthshire 'country' shop do their own version, also has hood, very reasonable.

Will be good quality, I've got a wax jacket from there in the past (not that one).

This one from Jack wills isn't bad, shame they only do it in green thoughwww.jackwills.com/en-gb/product/watercombe-wax-jacket-10000553901

I've just bought a trespass (haha!) navy waxed jacket as a temporary until I get nicer one,preferably with sherpa lining.Needed something quick due to out of the blue torrential rain!!!
