A question about : Winter Coat

My coat of 15 years is no longer useable, and I've been trawling through the web for a new one but need some consumer advice please.

I'm looking for a:

- black or dark grey or dark navy blue coat

- Men's professional/bland looking coat, without fur or big designs

- waterproof, windproof and warm during freezing snow conditions

- hem goes below the waist covering the bottom but is just above the knees

- has internal and external pockets

- a hood that doesn't blow off when walking or is so big that covers your eyes even after you have tied it!

- price ideally around Ј50 but can pay more if worth the money

Ideally I'd like the coat to be so warm that during winter I can just wear a shirt underneath. When going into the train and office, the temperature is so hot even in just a shirt let alone a thermal vest and jumper/suit jacket!

I appreciate some people feel the cold differently to others, let's just say I am very skinny so I feel the cold worse than others especially in my joints due to a bone disease.

If anyone can please recommend a coat they have matching the above description I would be grateful. Thanks.

Best answers:

  • Have a look at Cotton Traders.
    There will be some free delivery codes about too.
  • I've not checked the prices but over on the Quick-grab-it-now forum there's a link for John Lewis coats which are reduced by 90%.
