It needs to be warm and definitely have a proper hood, not one of those popper ones! Not black, or orange etc, more dark green, or navy. It will be used for dog walking, and for school drop off, so needs to be properly waterproof. We live very rurally so doesn't need to be trendy, just practical 😉 . Oh, and I don't want to spend very much, was hoping the sales would be my friend! Tia 😊
