Cotton Traders Raincoats

[dublinia]

Help please
I want a lightweight but warm and waterproof coat. If you know about Cotton Traders raincoats please help as buying from t'Internet is hard and delivery costs/ returns is expensive if not in the UK.
My options are :
Windermere
Conwy
Lakeside
coats.
Which is best please ?

I've eliminated the Conwy as it is not warm enough.

Finally down to the Lakeside.
Anyone bought one?

Bump

I haven’t owned any of those specific coats, but I did have a Cotton Traders one ( one of the zip in flleece types), which one day just decided not to be waterproof anymore. In the middle of a week camping / hiking trip. I haven’t bought from them again.

Oh dear.
Doesn't sound good. Was it supposed to be waterproof ?

Cotton Traders? I thought this section was "Style and Beauty" There is not the remotest possibility of looking half way acceptable in any item of clothing from Cotton Traders - have you looked at the Seasalt rainwear, much nicer.

I did try a Seasalt Janelle but it's too bulky. Not looking for glamour for dog walking in my local park.

I bought a windermere coat last year. Love it. Looks expensive. Can't comment on waterproofing as it's wool. Bought a dress from cotton traiders hated it. Sent it back and they paid up.

I like these, but it very much depends on the design they're using for each year. Very lightweight but fully lined (including sleeves) with teddy bear fur so warm.
It only last me for one year but it's not especially expensive and stays waterproof for that time.

(One year the designs were particularly hideous and I went without. But I've also had compliments on others I've had.The secret is to get one in the size that fits, don't go up one thinking that you can wear thick jumpers underneath.)

The link would have been good

Thank you

Try Lands End - they do lots of coats, have very good guarantee so you can return at any time if not happy. Can be expensive but they have lots of discount offers if you sign up to newsletter.

Thank you.
