Lovely lightweight showerproof hooded jacket

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely lightweight jacket with a handy phone pocket inside. This is good as it stops the phone pulling the jacket down at the front which happens if you have weight in the side pockets and as the jacket is quite short means it would ride up at the back. Very dark navy which I love. Shower proof and wraps up small.

Great little jacket!

Yes, I recommend this

Lovely little jacket with hood. I actually bought the soft pink as the navy had at the time sold out. Protects from showers and wind. A good buy for the changeable weather we can have at this time of year. Possibly a little on short side for my liking and im only 5’ 3’’. Still a great jacket.

Perfect light weight rain coat

Yes, I recommend this

This fits beautifully. I’m a size 10, got the small. I’m 5’1, sits about round my hips. Little long in the arms, but I like my sleeves like that. It’s great because it’s not that sweaty material. Looks nice and stylish!

Nice jacket but it is short in hindsight

Jacket colour and style is good, I did keep it but on wearing have discovered that it does ride up a bit with the elastic which is annoying. It would be better if it was a bit longer

Spring jacket

Yes, I recommend this

Needed a lighter jacket with a hood incase of rain and this ticks all the boxes. A bit shorter than I expected but apart from that, lovely well made jacket for spring/summer

Perfect light weight jacket

Yes, I recommend this

Wanted a light weight jacket with hood to pack for a holiday. This worked out perfectly. It is short in the body but so am I. I'm a size 14-16 medium was spot on.

Ready for Showers

This has been great already with the showers & so light & comfortable to wear or roll up in your shopping bag. Having a hood is a bonus no carrying an umbrella. True to size.

Love it! Pretty in pink!

Yes, I recommend this

It’s such a perfect jacket, lovely colour in the pale pink. Short in the body which is perfect for me. Lightweight but actually really wind proof. Very happy with my purchase.

Too short

No, I don't recommend this

I bought this because I like the colour and I haven’t been able to find anything else that I like. Unfortunate, it is too short to wear with most of my tops as they hang below too much.

Spring jacket

Yes, I recommend this

I was looking for a short, shower proof jacket for the warmer weather. This little parka is perfect! The only downside is the pockets have a press stud fastening, id have preferred a zip.
