berydaleLadies Winter Parka, Windproof and Waterproof

I’ve worn this every day for a few weeks now. It’s nice and warm and waterproof, and covers my bum - exactly what I wanted. I love the cuffs with the thumb holes, and that the zip is 2-way. A few things that I think make it not 5 stars. Firstly the “decorative buttons” are nothing short of annoying, bright silver, huge and in no way attractive - I’m going to have to paint them black with nail polish I think, seriously. Secondly, yes it has a “high neck” as described but it’s not comfortable around the face at all, I have to wear it unzipped and have a scarf or high neck top underneath for the cold weather as it’s just scratchy and sits funny when zipped all the way to the top (such a shame it doesn’t have a popper closing for the neck, or a soft collar made from the same stuff as the wrist cuffs, like a Superdry coat style). And thirdly the pockets are just a little too high and a bit shallow for my liking. But, it’s a functional coat that will see me through the winter. It’s not fancy but does the job. Was sick of getting soaked through all my other coats and having to swap for different winter weather conditions so this ticks all the boxes. Looks particularly good with black wellies, if you’re that fussed about such matters. I chose medium (size 10-12) as I wanted to be able to wear jumpers underneath, and can do so. The sleeves are a little long but not a problem.

I've only tried the coat on so far as it's my Christmas present from my partner, so I haven't had a chance to test it out yet, but the fit is really good. I'm a size 10/12 and went for the Medium. It leaves enough room to wear jumpers underneath. Looking forward to testing it out properly.

Cosy and keeps out the cold. I haven't tested how waterproof it is yet but so far so good

Lovely, lightweight coat fits nicely

Great winter jacket. Warm and waterproof.

I wore this coat in recent windy with torrential rain day, it was amazing how I stayed dry and warm and how quickly on return from walk that the coat dried out as the water ran off. Hood is not snug without a hat underneath though. This is the best coat I have had for long dog walks in horrendous weather, highly recommended

I was a bit dubious as it looked “stiff” in the image but it’s very soft. Well made and perfect for walking the dog.Would recommend.

This is my 2nd Berydale jacket. This one is in blue. I just bought it and did not use it yet however I had the same model but in brown for the last 5 years. I am not joking, have been using it all the time and lasted that long. I live in channel islands, not very cold but often windy and wet. This jacket is perfect for this weather.Jacket is very well made, fabric is sturdy and waterproof. Fits nicely, hood is spacious and protects well, slaves are rather long, nice design, looks good on the figure. Sizing is small. I usually wear size8 but my jacket is size M, one size up to my usual. I am very happy to write this review as I appreciate this product very much, it is worth spending time to share this information with others. Thank you!
