Would anyone have a sale access code for protected species? Lusting after their coats but just can't afford them. Thanks :)

I don’t have a code but do check out the specs as the two I have don’t have an inner pocket for a mobile, which is heinous in my book.

I have had that coat for about 8 years and it still looks brand new. Highly recommend

@echt thanks for the heads up about this as I would def like to be able to go for a walk with my phone and keys

@ChristmaslightsuptilJanuary I really love the look of it. Just wish they would do more than a 10% discount 😭

I think they were cheaper when I got mine. Main pockets are big- def room for a phone

I have the city walker and trench, both in olive green. Both have pretty big zipped pockets entirely suitable for mobile phone.

got the city walker first, good many years ago. I kept putting it in the basket to order and then just leaving it. Eventually they send me a 50% off. No such luck with the trench but then cost per wear entirely great value.

I have their trench and it’s amazing. You won’t regret buying it even at full price. Oh and the pockets are roomy so no issues with keys and phone.

Agree that the pockets they have a very good, and zipped. I just like the positions of inner pockets for mobiles. I have the one in the OP’s photo. It,’s excellent.

@FinallyHere I will try that and see if they send a code as I would love it if I could get it a bit cheaper. I am only 5ft and usually buy petite so I am hoping with the adjustable sleeves, it will be ok :) sounds like they are great quality and will last for years. Thank you all so much for the feedback on their costs x

I've had that coat for many years (still looks brand new as another poster said). I've never looked for inside pockets but it does have zipped pockets (outside) which I think are great.

@a1176003 Just noticed this on Sport Pursuit. They only have size 12. You will have to sign up with your email to "join" but I have used them a lot for outdoor gear and they are reliable. They also refund quickly if you have to return but I don't think returns are free.

a1176003 · 17/09/2025 09:26

@gedsmum thanks so much. I am an 8 or a 10 but will def keep an eye out incase they get returns or any other clearance stock. Great to have more options :)

@echt how did you find the sizing for the parka I have pictured? Dunno whether I will be an 8 or 10 in it? Thanks so much :)

I’m also 5ft- it fits well across the shoulders and the sleeves are styled so you can turn them up

TheClaaaw · 20/09/2025 20:36

These coats are great. They last for years and years as others have said. I have two and still lament the third one which I left on a train by accident many years ago.

KiIIingMeDeftly · 21/09/2025 13:13

Depending on what size you are OP, there's a few coats on Vinted and ebay.
