Forum Power - cheap waterproof & warm winter coat - 03/11/2013 11:35
I'm after the cheapest, least glamorous decently waterproof and warm winter coat. I often have to stand around in the cold surrounded by my fashion-conscious teenage stepchildren. Clearly I want to be as obstinately untrendy as possible. My Tesco jeans have been a great success on this measure (especially as they have brown lumps of PU foam on the leg), but the "Oh god what's he wearing now" factor of my Hi-viz yellow bomber jacket has worn off.
As I need a practical, waterproof and warm winter coat at absolute minimum price, can anyone recommend something that screams these criteria for maximum teenage embarrassment? I'm currently liking this , except that it's too expensive and a bit too poncy.
In my youth an NCB donkey jacket would have done the job, but they are all vintage picket-line chic these days.
Any ideas?
