I'm not too bothered about waterproofing as long as it's good enough in a light shower. I want something casual looking and easy to commute in. Something that'll Keep me warm stood in the cold on a train platform.

When it comes to splashing out on new coats I usually just go to go outdoors and try a load on. Generally the ones I like I don't like once I've tried them on.

You can always read reviews first and have an idea of a handful to try on too.ive had a Jack Wolfskin before it is a good make and was decent quality (german)

I generally stick to British brands for outdoor gear. Not sure why,;not a specific reason but the quality has always been good and to my taste

I usually go for regatta for cheap
Craghoppers for mid range
Montaine and rab for decent quality

Generally find the more you pay the more they tailor to a specific function be it waterproof etc. The bigger brands tend to focus on layering systems for outdoor gear
