In the unpredictable UK climate, securing a top-notch weatherproof coat is pretty much non-negotiable. Seasalt Cornwall’s range of rain and wind-resistant jackets have been receiving accolades from customers and now, you have the chance to snag one at a reduced price in their winter sale.
Though sizes are dwindling for some designs, we’ve pinpointed a parka that’s caught the eye of many shoppers, with one calling it ‘exactly what I was looking for’. Available in sizes eight to 20, the Holdfast Waterproof 3 in 1 Parka has seen a drop in price from £190 to just £152, offering a nice saving of £38.
This coat may be seen as an investment, but its versatile enough to justify the price, designed to adapt to different weathers throughout the year. The outer part of the parka is understated yet practical, featuring light padding, adjustable drawcord waist, dual-directional zipper and a hood with a storm peak.

Earning a commendable average of 4.6 out of five stars from 37 reviewers, the ‘perfect coat’ isn’t short of praise. While most reviews grant it the full five stars, the responses are somewhat varied, with a few less enthusiastic ratings sprinkled among them, reports Devon Live.
A lucky buyer who purchased it on discount said: “Bought this coat in the sale and I love it, the length is perfect, sleeves correct length for me and the hood isn’t too big. Already worn it out on a walk and it’s definitely kept me warm.”
One satisfied customer couldn’t contain their joy, leaving a review that read: “I’ve been searching for a coat like this for ages, and this is the first one I’ve found that ticks every box. It’s smart, comfortable, has plenty of pockets, and is genuinely wind and waterproof.”
Another shopper expressed relief at finding the perfect coat, commenting: “I’m 66 and this is the best coat I’ve ever worn. The quality and fine detail are exceptional. The length is perfect to keep your legs dry but not too long as I’m 5′ 4. The zip-out lining is a brilliant idea.”
However, some customers had issues with the coat’s arms. One person noted: “The coat was lovely and fitted perfectly everywhere but disappointingly was tight under the arms.” Another added: “The parka is great, only thing I would say is that when it’s cold your arms are cold. No second layer on the arms.”
Despite these issues, many customers were full of praise. One said: “This coat is an essential purchase for living in the UK. You can never predict the weather from autumn onwards and so this coat covers all bases. I absolutely love it!”
For those concerned about the performance of their outerwear during bad weather, one customer has expressed high praise for its resilience, sharing their experience online: “I’ve tested this out in Storm Henk (very windy, very rainy) and it worked a treat. I love the fact there’s a removable lining, which allows it to be used for the majority of seasons and weathers. The hood is deep enough to have a ponytail in and still protect you from the weather.”
