The waterproof winter Parka in 10-12, or the waterproof Mac for summer in navy would both find a place in my wardrobe.

I love the Waterproof Parker in Cityscape blue. The styling is just a little bit different and distinctive, the length is just right for keeping dry but being able to move well and it looks soft and comfortable. Stylish enough for city life / work wear but very practical and relaxed enough for weekends. I really like this shade of blue and it can be hard to get coats / jackets in this kind of color rather than black/taupe/grey.

The parka in storm grey 10-12 would make walking to work a much dryer prospect. They look lovely too

I'd love a waterproof winter parka - I'm
Always cold!

I would love to win the Winter Parka! I don’t drive so walk everywhere and have been on the hunt for the perfect coat for winter to keep me warm during the 6 month long Scottish winter . This coat looks like it will keep me warm without me looking like the Michelin man with the added bonus of looking great. I love the length of this coat and it would be great to have a toasty warm, dry rear end all winter long while doing the school run etc.

The waterproof parka in dark olive green- I can throw it on and look instantly stylish whilst pushing my triple buggy around- I love the military feel of it - never goes out of fashion.

Phew. I was going to go with panda fur then realised it wasn’t an actual protected species.

The olive one is lovely!

I would get the water proof Mac-I really need one! All the colour choices are nice but I would probably opt for either the burgundy or the red based on what I already have in my wardrobe (hard choice to make though, they all look so stylish yet really really practical).

I would love to win the waterproof winter parka in a size 14. I'm always cold in the winter and I would imagine it would be like wearing a (very stylish) duvet!

Definitely the Waterproof Commuter in Cobblestone Grey.

I love offset necklines or hemlines, asymmetric collars and cuts, etc and the front closing of this design is just gorgeous. Much more fun than a traditional style of waterproof jacket.

I would love a black water proof parka in size 14-16.
Hopefully it would stop me looking like Jon Bon jovi every time my hair gets wet on the school run.

The winter parka looks great and so practical for a cold walk to work!

I'd love a waterproof commuter in burgundy 10-12, that I can wear after my baby is born. Might add a bit more colour to my wardrobe and make me feel like I'm not in complete mum mode!

Waterproof mac in dark sky navy, size 10. Perfect for the school run and into work.

I would love the Rainbomber - either colour -although maybe a slight preference for the olive :) in a 16-18
I am short 5'5 and always feel swamped in waterproofs of any type - so love the idea of a neater coat and the review about the adjustable hood seems ideal...

my current seasalt is dying so this would be fantastic timing as just moved to a new job where I have to use public transport...thanks

Waterproof mac in deep burgundy in size 10-12 for me. Love the cut and especially the gorgeous back detail; colour is interesting whilst still classic: I've had my eye on it for a while! I have a few waterproof options - from Berghaus to Seasalt - but nothing that is smart enough to wear for work meetings/formal occasions - and I personally prefer a coat to a non-waterproof + umbrella option.

City Walker in Burnt Horizon Red because it's gorgeous in 12/14. I love the colour, bright enough to make you happy on a wet day. I live in Scotland so nearly every day is a coat day. This short but practical style would make me feel fashionable too.

I've coveted one of these for ages.

I would choose the Waterproof Commuter in Dark Olive Green. I dream of being dry and stylish at the same time!

Oooh it would have to be the waterproof commuter in truest black. I like he simplicity of the style. The City Walker is a close contender as it looks more casual, but I’d like a dry behind whilst doing the school walk!

The Parker in cityscape blue. Just love it

WATERPROOF CITY WALKER IN ATMOSPHERE WHITE (10-12)

Fabulous biker style, what's not to love.

Oh love these coats. City walker in atmosphere white looks so stylish but also nice and neat - I am on the short side and live this cut and the offset neck close. Though with four boys and dogs too the parka in khaki looks like my ultimate school run and dog walk coat!

Such a tough choice! I'd start with the commuter in burgundy as it's a perfect length and a beautiful colour. I hate the drab wet days of spring and autumn when staying dry is a chore, so this would so this coat would actually make me feel stylish for a change!

Waterproof winter parka

I love the waterproof Mac as it can be smart or casual - I like that it’s not bulky like a winter coat.

I think I want all the colours but if I had to pick one it would be Night Sky Navy
