Long unpadded waterproof coat

Sorry this has been done to death over time.

I really need an unpadded waterproof long say to knees coat with hood. Have a Didrikson for cold weather and a short berghaus but my legs get wet.

Willing to spend upto £100

Am size 14 norky and 5'3"

Bit more money - but it's an incredibly good coat. Am also size 14 and norky.

Aigle are properly waterproof, and fantastic quality, I've had a trenchcoat and the brookfield parka, the hoods in particular are massive and stay on your head unlike lots of lightweight raincoats, (bug bear of mine!).

I know it doesn't come to the models knees, but I bet she's taller that 5'3" ;). You could email them for measurements, this is the french site and orders come from overseas, but service was fab. Or do a google search for UK stockists?

wow topTrumps I really like the Aigle things!
a few things are out of stock in my size it seems - if they have good service perhaps I should email and enquire if they will be restocking. Thanks for link!

sorry I can't help OP, am looking for same thing as you more or less.

I have one of these - comes to mid-thigh, though I think they do longer styles. Hands-down the best raincoat hood I've had, completely adjustable and stays up even if it's windy. Also nice flattering coat and completely waterproof.

Patagonia and Ilse Jacobsen also do good longer raincoats.

I found the Seasalt Hellweathers an odd fit on me and had to send it back, though that may have been just me and my weirdly long torso/short arms.
