OK - before you all shout yuck - I know it's a bit horsey looking (not helped by the bit about being good for riding) - but it looks much better in RL - it has a detachable hood, is waterproof - and is less than £60.
On that site it is only in blue but they are in purple, red, etc etc.
My mum (age 65 ish) has just bought one (again I'm not selling it here am I?) - but she is a very stylish 65.

i was quite at the link!
sorry i think its awful there are plenty better out there!

BiscuitFace · 14/11/2009 18:00

it is just a sad copy of those aussie storm coats that vets wear

GoGoHamster · 14/11/2009 18:02

Ok - I give in - you're probably right. I think I got carried away as it's waterproof and has a hood. I'll let my mum carry on wearing it though - she has the excuse of living in the country.

agree - not good!

But if you do find the "ONE" let me know as I'm sick of looking like someone with high blood pressure on the school run as never have a coat on and everyone else is wrapped as if expecting sub zero temps!

I hunt most days looking for the coat for the run, I refuse to embrace boden clones on the playground (I counted 53 people in boden on Fridays run!) or anything from millets that can be folded into a 1cm by 1cm square!

Happy Hunting...
