M&S fans praise ‘incredibly warm’ coat that’s both ‘cosy and showerproof’

With temperatures set to drop even further, the transition from autumn to winter can be made easier with cosy layers.

M&S has been a hit with shoppers this year, and the popular pieces are continuing to be released into the new season.

A winter coat is getting rave reviews from M&S shoppers, for its warmth, quality and attractive design.

Like many heavy-duty outerwear items, it is an investment and priced at £99, but features thick padding and a water-repellent finish.

Buy: Thermowarmth™ Hooded Longline Duvet Coat (£99)

Being prepared for all weather conditions is a must for living in the UK, and the features of the coat make it ideal for protecting against rain, cold and wind.

Thermowarmth™ technology locks in warmth and insulates the body, while Stormwear™ innovation repels water to keep you dry and comfortable underneath.

The coat is called ‘duvet’ style for a reason, because the combination of the longline length, snood-style neckline and hood, and ribbed cuffs is being described as ‘really cosy and warm’ by shoppers.

Some of the reviews do mention the sizing is too large, so it may be worth trying multiple sizes to find the perfect fit.

There are over 50 reviews on the coat so far, with some calling it ‘incredibly warm’.

Turtlewood said: ”Love the colour of this coat – it’s a bit different to the usual black duvet coats. It’s also very big – I would say size down if anything. I’m a size 14-16 and I have a size 12 which is perfect on me. It’s also incredibly warm. Too warm for the weather at the mo. But when it goes down as we get into winter will really appreciate it!’

Wills803 also added: ”I bought this coat in green as I bought a blue one last year and a red one the year before. They are so cosy and also showerproof. A great asset to my wardrobe. I bought this coat in a size 8 and it is a perfect fit, but with loads of room for a thick jumper or jacket underneath. It is great value and I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a cosy, showerproof winter coat.”

Didi21 also added: ”Gorgeous colour – really cosy and warm, and a good length on my 5 foot 3 inch height. Sizing way off though – I went down one size after trying on in the shop, but still huge on me. And unfortunately size 6 is really difficult to get so fingers crossed.”
