Shoppers say the coat is ‘trendy’ and ideal for this time of year.
April showers are well and truly here, and many of us are grabbing light raincoats as we head out the door. It can be hard to know what the weather has in store at this time of year, so it is best to be prepared.
Marks and Spencer shoppers believe they have found a “perfect spring jacket” that folds easily and protects you from rain showers. The Stormwear™ Short Parka is priced at £40 and comes in two different colours.
You can choose from dusted pink and midnight navy. The coat comes in sizes from extra small to extra large, and customers say it fits true to size.
“It’s designed in a regular fit, with a zip-up front and a short length. Elastic trims at the hem and sleeves offer subtle shaping and a secure fit.
“The hooded piece is lined and features our Stormwear™ coating for a shower-resistant finish that keeps you dry. Two side pockets complete the look.”
The coat is made from 100% polyamide with a 100% polyester lining. Many shoppers have heaped on the praise for the coat as one said: “Great lightweight jacket with hood. Looks and feels trendy. Easy to pack away too.”
Another added: “I bought this jacket in the pink and absolutely love it, looks stylish and lightweight.” Someone else commented: “Really cute short jacket, lightweight and perfect for spring.”
However, some shoppers pointed out that the outside pockets do not have zips while others didn’t think it was totally rain proof.
One said: “This jacket is lightweight, with inside pocket and easy for carrying but not absolutely rain proof.”
Another added: “This was a nice colour and had a useful inside pocket for your phone but I didn’t like that the outside pockets had no zip and it was a bit too wide and baggy so I returned.”
There are other short parkas on the market, as George at Asda sells Beige Short Shower Resistant Rubberised Mac at £32. It comes in sizes extra small to extra, extra large and is shower resistant.
Meanwhile, Uniqlo has a Cotton Blend Short Parka that comes in five different colours for £49.90. Shoppers can choose from red, grey, black, pink and beige. The coat is stocked in sizes XXS to XXL and comes with a water-repellent finish.
