Where can I buy a coat like this?

[pandarific]

Sort of a smart, modern duffel type thing? Something smart so I can wear it to meetings, but practical so it covers the head and bum in case of downpours/cold.

£150 is my budget but hit me up with anything you see anyway, I can always look for things in sales or second hand.

It's cosy.

An umbrella is no use in the wind or when it's that frizz inducing wet air type of rain. I only wear a waterproof if it's pouring. Hoods all the way!

Phuquocdreams good woven wool can be much more waterproof than you think, especially if some of the natural oils are still in there.

Also, it’s not really about wearing it for the rain per se, it’s more wearing your smart coat for the client meeting you’ve got to travel to, knowing that if it suddenly starts tipping it down / blowing a gale as you’re trying to find the office, that you won’t arrive looking like a drowned rat / worzel gummidge. It’s that elusive mix of style and practicality.

Yes, this is what umbrellas are for, but sod umbrellas! One more thing to carry / remember / inevitably lose. You can’t lose a hood!

Yes, I see your point. I always forget an umbrella!

that taifun one is nice, smart enough for work but comfy looking.

This is only available in a 10 as preloved preloved

this is cheaper but not as nice
