Would this coat be warm?

Going by the price, I think it won't.

[MrsBadger]

warmer than an eg Primark down coat

but not as warm as Land's End or Northface

[bishboschone]

it has feathers which is what makes them warm. I would say it would be warm

[brimfull]

I would say it'll be really warm -if what they spout about the down quality is true.

[belcantwait]

i reckon it will be. could you buy it, try it and if its not warm send it back???

[SixtyFootDoll]

was about to spend £120 on sim from lands end might try this one first thanks for the link!!

[noddyholder]

I think uniqlo is good I'm sure it will be really warm

[SixtyFootDoll]

I just ordered it in brown!!
MN costs me every time!

[LynetteScavo]

Let me know how warm it is, SixtyFootDoll!

[LynetteScavo]

I've just ordered it in olive.

It'll be toasty. I have the uniqlo bodywarm light coat and that's hot enough for me. This'll be much warmer.

what bothers me about puffa coats - and this thread may not be the best place to mention it - is the way they make the wearer's arms stick out to the sides. for those who've already bought - please check you can still put your arms down by your side like a normal person. thanks

[AngelinaJolly]

perhaps you should take the hanger out first

[bonfirewithaheartofgold]

lol @ have only paid any attention to them irl since recent s&b flurry of interest and every time i see them i think "put your arms down fgs", sorry

s&b/

I must be officially old...I really don't care if I have horizontal arms how I look, as long as I'm warm.

And that's something I thought I'd enver say!

[LynetteScavo]

Whst is S&B?

so it arrived early this morning....I put it on, DH walked in, did a double take, gfawed, and said I looked like I'd cut the bottom off a sleeping bag.

My 4 and 6 year olds said I looked nice, and when I took it off I felt cold, so I've kept it.

Most improtatnly, it doesn't make my arms stick out to the sides!
