What jacket/coat for Autumn

11 replies

Redruby2020 · 01/09/2025 18:33

Hi all, the weather is now changing, cooler mornings and evenings, windy, now having rain. Never had a decent rain jacket, and don’t have the money to spend a lot on that. So would probably go with High St or cheaper options, but definantly a must.
I don’t often see things I like and so I am wondering what others will wear, what do you already own, or what will you be looking for.

I need a size 20 really 22 for a jacket etc and if it’s think but still keeps out some of the wind and rain, so I can put a sweatshirt on etc.

Thanks!

Anyone else also the plus size ranges we have very little shop options nearby, so I will look online.

Thankyou, yes I will take a look. When I did a search Newlook came up, but some reviews weren’t great, on their macs.

Mine's a Cotton Traders jacket, similar to this one (reduced to £44). It's not exactly high fashion but it keeps the wind & rain out!

They do have better-looking coats, all of them very reasonably priced for the performance quality:

Thankyou I will take a look.
We’ve had quite alot of rain since early this morning so seen so many come out with their Mac’s, so they’ve all managed to find somewhere lol.

Yes I think this might be the same one mentioned to me by someone else, it could be this company who QVC sells their items.

I get Regatta and Cotton traders coats on eBay and usually only spend around£15 or so.
