Hi.
Does anyone have an Ilse jacobsen coat? How warm is it? What time of year do you get wear out of it?
Thanks

I have one from a few years ago - sort of looks like this: www.ilsejacobsen.com/gb/en/clothes/rain/short/10+RAIN115B.LC34.410210.html. It has a very light fleece on the inside of the fabric. Warmth-wise, it's not bad - it stops the wind, but when it's cold you would need to make sure the coat is big enough to allow you wear a jumper underneath.

My main gripe with it is that despite the cost, it's not truly waterproof and the 60 Euro one I bought from America Today www.america-today.com/en-nl/rain-jacket-janet-long-2312002047+564.html is much much better. So I wear a warm quilted coat when I think it's not going to rain much, and put on a thick jumper and my America Today coat on when it's cold and pouring down. And leave my overpriced Ilse Jacobsen coat hanging on a hook at home.

Hi.
Thanks for that information!
I always like them when I try them on but I’d really want it to be near perfect at that price. Not totally water proof isn’t good enough. Thanks again 😊
