Where could I get one?

I bought one a couple of years ago from H & M but I can't find it anymore.

Does anybody have any ideas?

The whole of MN has been on a quest for this Ultimate Coat for years and years - Boden usually come the closest but they are a bit sack-like in cut and eye-wateringly pricey.

Thanks, but £75.00 !!!!!!!!

I know, I know - I've given up and wear a hoodless mac with a hat.

Threads passim here , here , here , here , here and here - it's an eternal problem.

I got one from Zara about 4 months ago and I LOVE it - black,waterproof, detatchable padded linig, hood, zip with overlapping buttons and little belt things at the sides. Unfortunately no longer in stock, but they may get similar in or the same next year. They have such a quick stock turnover in there.

Just look at that Boden raincoat in the yellow. You would have to be brave to wear that! Like the green though but not the 12 week wait.
