Long waterproof coat

Hi,
I’d be grateful if anyone had any suggestions for a long waterproof coat. Mainly for keeping dry when helping my niece in her horse’s yard but ideally suitable for very occasional riding too. I’m inexplicably embarrassed to ask her…

I’d like something slightly fitted, definitely not robe style. Ideally like it to be lined, not just the waterproof layer but don’t need it to be super warm as I’ll be moving around.
I’ve been looking at Le Mieux Amelie and Aubrian React but open to other ideas!
Thanks in advance.

Personally, I'm extremely disappointed in the lack of hi-viz options for long riding coats. Why are they all murky colours?!

thanks!
I think the Reincoat might be a bit too shapeless for me (I’m already quite shapeless so don’t need any help with that 😣).

@britnay - there’s a very very pink and reflective version of the Reincoat - definitely not getting lost in that!!
the LeMieux one I have been looking at has a reflective bit in the folds and in the cuffs but they don’t really look shiny enough to be much use.

My kids have Equidry. They love them.

I keep thinking about this one, as I like the fact that it is tailored.

The Le Mieux one is brilliant. I have 2. They are slightly fitted, and I like that I can layer up underneath in cold weather. I've recently washed and reproofed mine and they look as good as new.

Harry Hall have some nice ones. Mid and full length. They don’t seem to be very trendy so no good if you want a label but I find a lot of their riding clothes good value and practical

Stierna coats are the best. I’ve got one that’s 5 years old, still going strong. Not cheap, but last for ages.

They are tricky to wash & need re-proofing after every wash. Hi - viz reflective strips don't stand up to washing very well.

I have to wear a hi-viz coat for my work (non horsey) and they have to be replaced after 6 washes as apparently after that point the reflective strips do not meet the standard.

Hi-viz& light/bright colours gets dirty very quickly
You are better off getting a decent waterproof in a dark plain colour then popping a hi-viz vest on to ride.
