Whether commuting to work or walking the dog, with the temperature dropping and snow falling in many areas of the UK, a warm and cosy coat is an essential this time of year. And right now, as part of the January sales, shoppers can get 57% off a toasty padded coat from Mountain Warehouse, as it has dropped from £149.99 to £64.99. It’s been described as “incredibly warm”. 

Stylish and practical, the discount covers both chic colours (burgundy and grey) and sizes six to 20. However,  sizes 22 and 24 have already sold out.

The coat is made from a waterproof outer material, and one shopper said: “I absolutely love this jacket! It’s incredibly warm, genuinely waterproof, and fits perfectly. Plus, all of this comes at a very reasonable price – great value for the quality!”

Made from a breathable fabric, it won’t feel stuffy or bulky and thick jumpers can easily be layered underneath. A microfibre layer is designed to provide heat retention, and a fleece lining offers extra warmth and comfort. Shoppers at Mountain Warehouse also get a two-year warranty for the Tarka II Women’s Long Padded Waterproof Jacket, for peace of mind.

Consumers are pleased with the look and feel of the coat, particularly drawn to the removable faux fur hood. Now, it’s better than half price; one parent picked it up for their daughter. They said: “Good quality coat for my daughter to use for school, nice features such as removable fur and hood.”

A dog walker found it to be an excellent choice, sharing: “Perfect fit, lovely warm lining, nice and smart too, not too heavy, totally waterproof, ideal for walking the dog on wet mornings, or for a walk in the countryside.”

However, a mixed review found slight fault with the pockets, explaining: “The length is good, and I might like slightly larger zipper pockets. The button pockets are larger but slightly awkward to access.”

Another shopper said that the “great hood gives good protection from the weather”, so through snow and rain wearers shouldn’t get wet. Another pet owner said: “Lovely colour and very good quality. Just what I needed for walking my dogs.”

Customers who purchased the Mountain Warehouse jacket are impressed with the colour. Someone said: “The parka is great if you want to add extra layers/wear large jumpers, and still want extra warmth and waterproofing. Love the burgundy colour as well.”

Another happy customer commented: “Value for money, and excellent for the cold weather, the coat is not too bulky. Feels very comfortable on.”
