berydaleLadies Winter Parka, Windproof and Waterproof

You know when you've tried so many items of clothing over the years that you expect anything you order to not fit or look awful that you're already preparing to send it back before you've even opened it, Well not with this jacket! Love it! It fits and looks great! And a brilliant price to boot, for once I'm really happy with my purchase 😀

Purchase this coat to replace my existing one as getting a bit too tight the length was very good nice to keep your warm in the winter months nice big Hood with the high neck quality seemed good only thing was the sleeves seem to be a very big and the elastic cuff seemed to be very big different fit my little wrist unfortunately so I have to return how to find something else just as good.The body fit was a bit tight .

Bought the 1st one to replace my old dog walking coat and was so nice bought a 2nd for work.Lovely fit very flattering and warm.There are only 2 Downsides; when fully zipped up I can just about see out over the top and the hood rises a hood 4" above the top of my head so i try and keep the lip of the coat rolled down which lowers the hood and allows me to breath! and the pockets are very tight to get anything in or out of so use an addition bag for all the required dog walking items (treats, poo bags & my phone).

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.

Nice coat not too thick…love the dark green colour only moan is that the sleeves aren’t very long they feel too short if I put my hands in the built in glove which is attached to each sleeve..shame as not totally fit for purpose and no I haven’t got extra long monkey arms :0)

Just received this coat today and am actually shocked at how good it is. Great value. Slightly big fit.

Ideal for dog walking - lots of decent sized pockets with two security ones. Warm and waterproof which I wore in the snow/sleet yesterday and was very snug. I would have given it five stars if the hood was adjustable ...... Good value for money as well.

I'm very happy with this jacket - reading all the reviews I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm usually a UK 14 (top) and UK 12 (bottom) so I went for the L as it was a couple of inches larger than my actual measurements and that's exactly what I ended up with - enough room for wearing extra layers underneath if needed but it doesn't feel too big without. I wanted something warm, waterproof and to see me through dog walking in winter, whatever the weather, and have room for added layers. The waist can be pulled in with the inside drawstring to give more shape as you need it. I'm 5ft 4" so the length for me comes to lower mid thigh which keeps the top of my legs warm. I've worn it in light/med rain and fairly strong wind, over the last couple of days - it's great for blocking the wind and kept me perfectly dry after being out in it for about an hour (will test it out in heavier rainfall in due course). It's comfortable and snug to wear with warm and useful pockets - the temperature control is good - not getting too hot when walking a lot but still keeping nicely warm and dry. The dual zip (top and bottom opening) is always nice to have and there's also an option to open the back vent button, if you need extra stride. The hood is also warm - I wouldn't say it's overly large as some have suggested but agree there isn't anything to hold it in place or tighten it, especially if very windy (you can easily wear a hat inside when really cold, which could help hold the hood in place better, or maybe add some ties inside?). I also found the sleeves to be a good length having average length arms, I think!? The fabric is really nice and the finish on my jacket is good. I bought the brown one - lovely shade and overall, I'm very happy with it!
