Shoppers rave over ‘stylish’ raincoat that ‘lasts for years’

Seasalt Cornwall has won praise from shoppers who are obsessed with its Janelle Waterproof Jacket, which is ideal for cold and wet autumn days.

Made from 100% waterproof nylon, the coat’s relaxed fit allows room for cosy layers underneath, while its knee-length design provides extra coverage. The upper interior features a soft recycled fleece lining, with a quilted lining at the bottom for ease of movement and warmth.

The coat also boasts a detachable hood and reflective strips for visibility during cloudy days or night-time walks. Available in sizes eight to 28, and in petite, regular and tall lengths, the Janelle Waterproof Raincoat comes in eight colours, including classic khaki, burgundy and mustard.

Priced at £170, it may be more costly than other high street options, but its durability ensures it will last for years to come.

The waterproof, windproof and breathable coat isn’t just a hit with us – it’s also a favourite among shoppers. With over 85 reviews, the item boasts an impressive 4.8-star rating, reports Manchester Evening News.

A satisfied Seasalt Cornwall customer shared: “I’ve had this raincoat for about six years and just purchased another. Warm and waterproof but still with a bit of style. Highly recommend.”

Another added: “This is my second Janelle. I bought a new one having worn my first constantly over the past four years. The design is perfect for keeping you dry. It looks smart, it’s warm in the winter and it’s a petite size (I’m 5ft 1ins). Size 10 was a comfortable fit, but I opted for size 12 so I could wear a thick jumper underneath.”

Another review read: “Love this coat, it’s warm, stylish, great length I ordered a petite as I’m 5ft 2ins. I love the poppers at the front as well as the zip. Comes in great colours, I had trouble deciding.”

However, not all feedback was glowing; one customer gave the Janelle Waterproof Raincoat three stars, citing issues with the fit and fabric: “I am size 14/16, I find 14 a good fit for Plant hunter coat. Unfortunately 14 was too tight in this style. Lovely colour and petite was not too long as I’m 5ft 4ins.”

One shopper was puzzled over garment measurements and fabric type, yet praised the easy return process, saying: “I wasn’t sure if the length measurement was for the front of garment or included the fish tail, it is for the front so just came onto my knee. Wasn’t sure about the fabric, prefer the tin cloth, thought it was a bit shiny and hadn’t realised it was nylon. Easy return process and have today received a Plant hunter coat, happy customer, good price with £40 reduction.”

However, another customer was delighted with their Seasalt Cornwall purchase, sharing: “I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect raincoat and I think this is it. On a very wet and windy day on the coast it kept me dry and warm. Love the fact it is breathable – no uncomfortable sweating! I love everything about it.”

For those who are fond of Seasalt Cornwall, there’s further temptation as FatFace cuts prices, seeing the Juno Red Waterproof Long Coat being reduced to £124 from £155, while the Cheshire Washed Black Longline Coat can be snapped up for £104, down from £130.
