Long waterproof raincoat

39 replies

missmoon · 31/10/2021 18:56

Can anyone help? I‘m looking for a long (below the knee or mid calf) raincoat, something simple with no fleece or padding, in black/navy/dark brown or similar. I have quite a few warm layers, but need a longer waterproof one.

I need it for walking the dog! I‘m tired of being cold and wet.

Ideally something like the Seasalt Janelle but without the fleece. I‘ve seen a few but they are all sold out in my size (12/14 or M/L), like this:

www.arket.com/en_gbp/women/jackets-coats/product.arket-and-tretorn-women's-rain-coat-black.1006162001.html

Or this one:

hollandscountryclothing.co.uk/products/didriksons-nadja-long-waterproof-coat?variant=33018775896099&currency=GBP&utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=google+shopping&gclid=Cj0KCQjw_fiLBhDOARIsAF4khR2kLQJfVCz6OSUNqLyjgfkKg6Xs6q6cSu2X68_fmCCZPymlso88Y80aAppOEALw_wcB

Any suggestions? Am I looking in the wrong season (hence everything sold out?). Thank you!!!

@Mosaic123 I love Uniqlo. Wish they did longer waterproof coats. Will have another look in case I missed anything.

Driza bone... different styles....does what it says!!!

I have the seasalt plant hunter and wouldn't say it was too warm
Wore it tonight in the rain, was about 7c and I had a thin jumper underneath and was just right if that helps!

Didrikson is fabulous- they have warm parkas but also shell raincoats of various lengths. You can filter by 'shell' to avoid the padded ones www.didriksons.com/en/women
That's the main website but you can usually get them on offer at various outdoors shops

Or if you want to spend some serious cash these are beautiful
scandinavianedition.com/products/avenue-black
There's a longer trench coat version as well

Didrikson have lovely ones.
I really want one of these but am quite short so am not sure I can carry it off !!

The Baleno Kensington and Jack Murphy Malvern look so good.

@Declutterclogs Oh the Scandinavian Edition coats are absolutely gorgeous! It’s more than I was planning to spend but I can’t unsee them now. One issue is whether I will have to pay duties and taxes on top of the price though, I’ve e-mailed them to ask.

I had forgotten about Didrikson, will have a look!

Yes I know what you mean, seeing them has pretty much ruined all the other options out there for me too!

Sweaty Bettyi have this one (there are other styles on the site) It looks very smart over a formal outfit, casual over jeans. It has a thin lining an dis very good quality, best of all it really keeps out the rain and has plenty of room for layering underneath.
