long length waterproof coats!!! where are they!!

Been looking all over the place for a coat that fits the following spec..

About knee length.
two inside pockets
4 maybe 6 outside pockets
has a hood
fully waterproof
comes in XXL size, aya im that big....

You'd think it be easy to find, HA!, most shops do waist length only, others do longer but only L or sometimes XL size, others do XXL but its pink... no way. sometimes they have 2 pockets on the outside none inside ect...

Maybe im asking too much? am i?

Have you got a good coat youd recomend for walking to and from work with some decent size pockets in it?

TYIA

Toggi is a brand that I imagine will make such a thing.

Have a look for peter storm coats. I think millets and blacks sell them. very good.

Those wax coats be found everywhere, just go to millets or any other camping store.

colinuk · 31 Jul 2008 at 17:09

Ive looked in millets ect, they have one or two coats that arnt waist length but they only have two pockets ont eh outside, none on the inside, and they only went upto XL, im losing weight, but only down to XXL.

Still, TY for the advice, will go check Blacks next. Got to be a coat for me somewhere out there!

You could get an old army surplus poncho and wear something with pockets underneath?

badbob · 31 Jul 2008 at 17:11

Can't tell if thats sarcasm?

My brother got an old Us one from the Vietnam era it's great, keeps everything dry can go over a backpack you can still get at everything underneath.
