Waterproof knee length coat for dog walking

9 replies

Title pretty much says it all.

I need a knee length waterproof coat for walking the dog. I'm generally a size 12 but have a largish bust. I've just ordered and returned a seasalt coverack which was lovely but too tight across the bust but strangely large everywhere else so I can't go up to a 14.

I don't want it to be too thick/padded because I'll wear it in the summer as well as the winter. When it's cold I need to have enough room to wear a jumper or sweatshirt underneath.

Budget upto £100/£125.

Can anyone recommend something that fits the bill.

How about Lazy Jacks? I have a wonderful, supremely waterproof coat of theirs that is just past knee length. In a gorgeous colour too. It's just lined with soft cotton. I've worn it in all seasons unless close to freezing.

Thanks. Never heard of them but I'll take a look. How's the sizing?

The sizing seems quite standard. I just wear my usual size.

Uniqlo.

Bought a block tech one in the sale as a stop gap until I had the funds to replace my much beloved but terminally damaged Janelle. I can't see me ever getting the new janelle one now, the Uniqlo works just too well.

I now have two trenches in black and tan and the hooded "Water resistant one". I can confirm they all have stood up to torrential rain, leaving everything underneath dry as a bone. The bulk standard blocktech mac is cut so beautifully that it hangs impressively and looks significantly better/modern than it has any right too.

I miss zipped pockets. But that's about it

Didriksons are ideal for.this

Can you find a Didrickson one in your budget? Maybe go up a size if anything, but it depends on your build.

I'm looking for a knee length waterproof summer one. I saw someone on holiday with one which looked about right, It had a curved hem and there was a logo on the sleeve but I didn't recognise it, It was like a child's drawing of a yacht if anyone knows it?
