The problem with writing reviews, is that often you never have the product for long enough. These are my thoughts after about a month.
So I bought the coat for weather exactly like we have seen for the last few weeks - c20 degrees C and some pretty heavy rain showers. It says it’s not waterproof so I don’t expect it to be. I’ve been caught out a few times in heavy showers (once in Waitrose car park and the other coming home from the pub - so it’s well tested!!) but so far the water has beaded and I haven’t got wet. I would say it’s exceeded expectations in that regard.
What I like most about this coat compared with say my Barbour or my old beghaus is that it has the feel of a cotton jacket. It feels breathable. It feels quite premium actually. It’s just comfortable to be in.
The hood is cavernous but adjustable and the pockets are easily accessible and well placed.
So I’m pleased with it. Certainly so far. And since water proofing is done with a block of wax and is “adjustable” to suit (I think it will take a bit of trial and error) but it should be easy to reproof to the level I like.
Cheers
