Qu for protected species bomber or city walker owners

8 replies

Nevernamedchanged · 05/04/2024 20:05

Does anyone have a protected species in alabaster or burnt horizon? If so, how bad are these colours for marks and do they come off ok. Would love alabaster but worried it will be ruined quickly with a dog and child.
Also if you are a size 8 but want to wear a jumper under the jacket do you size up or down for their bomber and city walker jackets?
I really can’t decide which shape to order out of the two. Has anyone tried both? Any tips?

I don’t have those colours but I’ve had my PS City Walker for 6 years and it is still in great condition. Mine is storm grey but doesn’t have any marks on it.

I have a size 12-14, I’m mainly a 14 and I can easily wear a jumper under it so no need to size up for the city walker cut IMO.

It’s been a great investment. Totally waterproof, I regularly get compliments on it (which is rare for the clothes I usually buy… 😂) and I’ve never seen anyone else in one…

Now I’ve looked it up I want a burnt horizon as well!

@BadgerFace thanks for replying. I wasn’t sure initially but burnt horizon is growing on me. I might place an order, thanks for your help.

Just scanned the title without seeing the topic and thought this was going to be a fascinating thread about protected species in cities. Maybe I need more sleep.

I have the odd white, which I'm guessing might be alabaster.
I just pop a bit of vanish on any stains, so far ball point pen and make up, stick it in the washing machine and it comes out fine.

@Hillrunning alas no, maybe we should start one 😀

Nope, I just use a washing powder without softener and hang it up to dry. It's still waterproof.
