Can I still wear my yellow Joules coat?

I’ve had it a few years now, but still love it. It didn’t get much wear last year, as obviously due to COVID I didn’t do much. But have yellow coats had their day?

Does anyone else's Joules raincoat go bumpy in the rain?!

Yellow raincoats always make me think of the film IT Grin

The coat played a major role in Keeping Faith as I remember.

I'd wear it. It will make you more visible in the dark.

I have a yellow rainjacket. Couldn't tell you the make without going to check. Have had it for ages. I love it. The only issue is if I wear it in the summer it seems to attract wasps, and I'm pathetic around wasps. Great for the rest of the year, though! Makes a nice change to see someone in a bright coat during the dull winter months.

Wear it! The planet needs us to keep wearing stuff. It's my new plan, to wear stuff until it's worn out.

On an unrelated note, for @notlongtillxmas. Who is this Blue Bully in the cupboard, of which you speak? Indulge me please Grin

I would if I had one. It reminds me of Eve Myles in Keeping Faith.

To the pp who said yellow makes you look like a Simpson, just dye your hair blue Grin

@SpongeBobJudgeyPants it's that blue parka who smells of wet dog and has a half chewed Werthers original in the pocket
He's been taking up all my space and squishing me for months !

You don't need to ask permission.

The only person I've seen wearing one is Eve Myles filming Keeping Faith in Laugharne, of course you should wear it if you like it and it fits Smile

Sainsbury's have some in this year so I'm guessing they are still in the trend.

But even so if it's waterproof and still works I don't think it's illegal to wear it WinkGrin

I have a yellow Seasalt raincoat and I will wear it until it falls apart because a) it cost a bomb and b) it's the best waterproof coat I've ever owned. Don't care if it's not fashionable any more!

Wear it! I have both a Joules and a Seasalt coat, a little bit of me died when I bought them but I’ve given in to the practicality! I just wear my more fashionable coat/jackets on non-rainy days.

@RobertaFirmino

I have news for you...

YOU CAN WEAR WHAT THE FUCK YOU LIKE!

100% this!

Op, do you like the coat? If the answer is yes, then keep wearing it. You don't need validation that it's still "in fashion"
