Rain coat recommendations?

[Marahute]

Looking for a bright coloured rain coat?

Nothing padded, just a single light waterproof layer, for summer showers or wearing over warm layers on colder days. Bonus if it folds up like a pac-a-mac. Definitely want a hood.

My style is relatively basic - I generally live in a uniform of mum jeans or midi skirts with Air Force 1s and T-shirts. So guess I would be after something more sporty and casual than classic and smart.

Didrikson or Tenson

Joules do nice bright colour rain jackets

I have several Seasalt raincoats.

I love those!!

Jumping in as I'll be doing more dog walking now we've got our own as well as our borrowed one. Didrikson are £££ but are they worth it? If look on ebay but knowing my look they'd not be waterproof any more

@polkadotpjs Didrikson are warm, dry and last a long time. I think I’ve had mine 7 years and it is still warm and dry!

Seasalt. Lots of variety and properly waterproof.

I love Ilse Jacobsen for raincoats. Hard-wearing, and longer lengths so your legs stay dry too. Stylish little details, good pockets.

Mostly solid colours, but occasional interesting patterns. Saw a woman with a quite fun botanical print one in the supermarket recently. A bit ‘out there’ but very expensive-looking. I mean they aren’t cheap new, but it’s not like you need a wardrobe full of them. Some have a fab terry lining, very comfortable and breathable.

Rains are fantastic! They’re quite roomy as they’re designed to accommodate cycling in them, but they’re fantastic. We have a few different ones

Oh, and in the same Scandì vein, check out Danish brand RAINS.

A bit more earnest and hipster, but quality too. Better on sale.
