Seasalt Cornwall)The two parkas that have just been released, which are sure to meet the 90s-aesthetic perfect, are this Plant Hunter waterproof coat, or this nifty 3-in-1 Holdfast waterproof number, which both come in the iconic khaki green shade. While the former comes in a wide size range, from 8 to 28 in your choice of petite, regular or tall measurements, the latter is restricted to a regular length in sizes 8 through 20.
The Plant Hunter, which is currently up for grabs at £165, also comes in a wide range of colours - in case green isn't your shade. Boasting a flattering, 'gently' fitted shape, this piece offers a waterproof material on the outside while housing a fleece lining that's sure to keep you warm while walking your dog through the wet and windy winter weather. This number also offers a drawstring waist for a snug fit, and zip and snap fastenings to keep the chill out.
Meanwhile, the Holdfast coat has got you covered for all occasions and weather through the colder months, as it offers a tad more versatility than your ordinary outerwear. Retailing for £190, this isn't just a jacket - it's two different pieces that can either be worn as one, or separately. You have the water and windproof outer parka, which is perfect for the autumnal temperatures right now or for spring showers next year, and then the interior offers a fleece Gillet that can be detached and worn alone as a statement piece; or, the two can be worn as one, for the perfect warm and stylish winter coat.
Shoppers are raving about this Plant Hunter parka, as one commenter beams: "Perfect dog walking coat - lightweight but warm. Kept me dry when we had the wet spell a couple of weeks ago and the hood didn't keep falling down over my head. Very happy."
Another 5-star reviewer raves: "Super comfortable, well made and great quality. I wear it for school runs, dog walks and generally out and about. Perfect in rainy weather and warm enough to wear in winter with a warm jumper. Very happy with it. I found it to be true to size."
And a third shares: "This coat is fantastic! It’s great with so many outfits but also holds up in windy rainy weather. I’ve worn it so much. Love it."
While one customer adds: "I Love the fit and the design of this Parka coat. It feels cosy and I have been told that it also looks good on me."
But it isn't just the Plant Hunter parka getting all the praise, Seasalt Cornwall's 3-in-1 piece is sharing in the love as shoppers leave it their own glowing feedback. A fan writes: "At last a winter coat with a fleece lining that goes right down the coat! Great design it could be used all year round."
With another gushing: "Comfortable to wear, versatile and very warm. Looks amazing, and fits really well with good-length sleeves. Lovely lining useful to be able to make it cooler or warmer depending on weather would definitely recommend."
