I like it.

Shmithecat2 · 13/02/2022 09:49

Love it.

Not loving the colour , it’s very teddy bear which I guess is what they are going for but not something I’d like to wear

mUserBot9to5 · 13/02/2022 09:51

I do like it but I think it'd be better in royal blue or deep pink, it could look a bit like an animal if you weren't wearing smart fitted clothes under it.

🤙

mUserBot9to5 · 13/02/2022 09:56

something like this, more stylish.

all personal taste though I know

Planetzero1 · 13/02/2022 09:56

Not keen on the colour.

MrsSkylerWhite · 13/02/2022 09:57

Don’t like it.

mUserBot9to5 · 13/02/2022 09:58

This one is nicer and cheaper too

these may be less fashionable, but easier to wear

I love it, and could look great depending on the colouring of the wearer.

I’m too pale and too fat, so would look like an actual bear. Part of my diet incentive is so I can wear my furry jacket again 😃

Imsittinginthekitchensink · 13/02/2022 10:07

I like the shape and fabric, but because of the colour, I think you would look like Bungle.

SoupDragon · 13/02/2022 10:08

I don't like the colour at all.

chaosrabbitland · 13/02/2022 10:09

i like very much , its so warm ,furry and soft looking , i have a similar fur one to this from primark except its a zip up one with a big hood , best winter coat iv ever owned

CharacterForming · 13/02/2022 10:11

It's Ok but I think teddy bear coats look best in unnatural colours.

Planetzero1 · 13/02/2022 10:14

It does look a bit like a car coat.

WhatIsThisPlease · 13/02/2022 10:20

Don't like it at all. Sorry.

Silverstreaks · 13/02/2022 10:22

It's a nice colour in a cozy fabric but what do you want it for?
If it's meant to be an everyday coat for the cold the thick lapels won't stay up keeping your chest warm and are bulky.
Is it for something in particular?
I bought a zip up hooded FF short jacket in rust with slanted pockets from New Look 3 years ago and it's still going strong. Ridiculously warm and casual.

Rosebuud · 13/02/2022 10:23

I don’t like it, I’m sorry op.

ouch321 · 13/02/2022 10:24

Not for me

RampantIvy · 13/02/2022 10:26

I would prefer it in black

I just wanted it for everyday wear. To be honest, I would have preferred it in black or midnight blue

It rains too much where I live to be able to wear a jacket like that most of the time.

CorrBlimeyGG · 13/02/2022 10:37

Good point about the rain. There's a fine line between fun coat and shaggy dog, and rain would make that coat cross the line.

Do they have it in other colours? New Look usually have a decent selection.

AnyFucker · 13/02/2022 10:40

Drab. Not waterproof for everyday wear. Will look daft in the spring. Teddy bear coats pretty outdated now really.
