Warm winter coat with LONG ARMS

4 replies

newschoolpals · 02/11/2024 16:03

I have had this issue in the past where long arms on tops/coats don't cover my wrist. It's fine in most clothes / seasons as long as I either push my sleeves up anyway or it's loose so it's not noticeable.

But I've tried three winter coats in the last couple of weeks which have too-short sleeves, and the cuffs are made to be tight to stop rain/cold getting in but they stop above my watch. Very annoying.

Anyone have any recommendations for a nice thick waterproof coat with longer than usual arms?

Buy from the tall range at somewhere like next? They have longer arms

Dare2B & Regatta. Also the tall range at Next, although the quality can be hit or miss for the price.

I currently have this one from Dare2B, can vouch for its warmth & waterproofness:

I've also got this Regatta one, which is a decent water resistant one & very very warm:
