Help me find this coat

56 replies

I have noticed quite a few people wearing a waterproof coat which I think was about knee length in a waterproof fabric that looked like plastic but was actually really nice. It is sort of A line in shape, and green amongst other colours. I asked someone where it was from and she said M and S, but I can't find it online. Can anyone help?

That looks quite close but not the same I don't think. It was made out of a material that you would think would look really ugly but it looks great. I saw about six people wearing it this afternoon.

That’s the one I keep looking at, I want it so badly!

Really nice but it wasn't waxed.

Could it be the Rains one ? It is a “funny” material but looks lovely.

Rains Fishtail parka

It does look like that but the lady I asked said it was from M and S

It’s the Stormwear Ultra Waterproof Hooded parka I linked to . They’ve been doing it for a few years and last year had a lovely dusky blue and a sage the year before. Now they have it in plum and in black.

It wasn’t as long or heavy as that. More like a trench coat without a belt in the sort of fabric Rains is made of.

Is it last season’s m and s? I have a blue one that fits the description but is from last winter (which might be why you can’t find it).

Yes that might be it. Damn!

That might be the one actually.

It looks lovely but I note its description is that it will “…..protect from light showers …..”
I would need something that would withstand heavy showers. Hence I bought an M&S waterproof coat.

The one I saw looked totally waterproof. It was quite a heavy material like Rains jackets. I just don't think I have found it yet and it's so frustrating.
