Really warm coat for cold, football mornings?

[footiemamm]

I'm looking for recommendations for a really warm coat for watching dd play football in the freezing mornings.

Does anyone recommend Dry Robes?

Thanks in advance

I invested in the Superdry longline - about £120 and I will wear it for life. It’s unbelievable.

Thanks for replying.

Is it this one you got?

This is the warmest coat I ever had, I think it looks good, and it's not expensive. I've even bought a second in case anything happens to my first!

Looks good, thank you! Is it true to size?

I got a different brand Dry Robe on Vinted. Comes down to my ankles - like watching indoors!

Sounds like a dream! Do you know the brand name by any chance?

I have the full length landsend waterproof feather filled one. It is years old, I use nikwax to wash and reproof and it's as good as new.

I have a dry robe and snow boots. It's not trendy but I'm warm and dry.

It’s a HUUB

Rein coats are really good - warm & water proof. Massive hood which actually stays up when you want it to! Obviously they are designed for equestrian stuff but definitely built for the job!

Landsend sell some really warm coats, and often have a sale.

Drywalks the winter one, totally waterproof!

I have a Dry Robe which I wear after sea swimming in the morning. It is amazingly warm BUT very heavy. I'm not sure id want to wear it for hours on end.

I'd go for a Lands End stadium squall coat in a size up with a heated gilet or hoody (I have a Mud Daddy one which is really cosy and very efficient https://www.muddaddy.co.uk/collections/the-mud-daddy-family/products/warm-daddy-keep-saving-and-keep-warm-this-winter) underneath. IMO if you are standing around you need something to put heat into you as well as keep it in. If you don't want to spend on a heated gilet type thing, then the alternative is a https://wild-moose.co.uk/products/hottum so you can wear a hot water bottle which is blissful.
Dry robe type things are good on wind proofing, but apart from a fleecy layer don't have insulation

Yes it is.

As much as I loathe Dry Robe Wankers I would buy one for watching at the sidelines of a wet and cold footy match. Being warm, dry and toasty is the goal

North face arctic parka, very pricey but lasts years, almost too warm for long walks but toasty if you're sitting around

Going against the grain I don't find my DryRobe massively warm - watching rugby in the rain for hours it does keep the rain off but doesn't keep you warm even with many layers underneath

I would reccommend Didricksons - mine is about a decade old but is similar to this or this

Wait another 2 weeks and I suspect that you have much more choice at Jan sale prices.

I have a Seeland shoòting jacket. It's designed for days on winter mountainsides. Or a ski jacket is the other super warm option. They're both waterproof too.

The boots are so important. It's not just about the body. I also wear a faux fur hat pulled right down. And thermal gloves.

These are a steal. Obviously old stock but a great price if you're a size 8.

Didrikson! So cosy. I look forward to winter dog walks just so that I can wear it.

Thanks for posting this! I need something too but as a shorty, I hate long coats.

Agree with Didrikson. You know it’s quality and it’s warm because it’s a Swedish brand. I adore mine. So warm yet still stylish.
