There might well be another heatwave, but clever shoppers are already sorting out their wardrobes for the months to come. Every Brit understands that a dependable waterproof jacket is crucial for Britain's unpredictable weather - and this FatFace choice could be the perfect bargain.

The brand's summer sale is currently running, with selected items knocked down by more than half price. One piece that's been reduced by 57% is the Taylor Black Waterproof Coat, which has been cut from 130 to 55, delivering 75 in savings overall.

Available in a timeless and adaptable black colour, the coat features a lengthy design that falls just above the knee, a high neckline and zip plus press-stud fastening for extra defence against the weather. It also provides a hood, and ample pocket room for storing essentials - particularly attractive for dog owners.

Available in sizes 6-24, the coat has achieved a 4.7 star rating from customers. One reviewer mentioned they had owned the coat for over a month and had already tested it thoroughly during visits to the Lake District and Yorkshire.

They said: "I bought this coat over a month ago and I'm so glad I did. It's proven its worth and kept me dry when I went to the Lake District and Yorkshire where it did rain for two solid days. The coat itself is comfortable to wear and genuinely is waterproof", reports the Manchester Evening News.

Product Description

FatFace's sale sees this versatile Taylor Black Waterproof Coat reduced to it's lowest ever price. It features a hood, pockets, long length and zip closure for protection against wind and rain.

Another customer hailed it as 'Simple, a good length and not too heavy', although some reviews have pointed out it runs quite large, noting: "Great coat. Very waterproof and warm with the fleece inside. Comes up a little big."

However, buyers who needed a different size found the customer service 'excellent' when they wanted to swap. They commented: "Lovely coat and in the sale too so a bargain. Ideal as I'm always outdoors and umbrellas are cumbersome when it's windy. Lovely quality and excellent customer service when I ordered the wrong size."

The hood also receives praise in another review, with one customer stating: "I purchased this coat as I always like my clothes to match. When the coat turned up, I was pleasantly surprised how lovely and light the coat was. I also like that it has a big hood. Fabulous coat. You must purchase this coat. I'm looking forward to wearing this soon."

Meanwhile, at Regatta, this Women's Pack-It III Waterproof Jacket has been slashed from 50 to 20. Available in various colours and folding neatly into its own stuff sack, it makes an excellent choice for festivals, though it doesn't offer quite the same coverage as FatFace's option - nor as many pockets.

For those seeking something more fashion-forward, the Alva Women's Waterproof Trench Coat is 119 at Tog24, down from 170. Cut in the timeless trench-coat style, it features fully sealed seams and a waterproof finish, a detachable hood and generous side pockets.

Over at FatFace, there are loads of other items that are definitely worth a look in the sale, such as this Talia Chocolate Brown Regular 2in1 Midi Dress, now reduced to 43 from 72. It boasts a cosy knitted top and a lightweight, woven midi skirt for an easy transition from day to night.

Crafted from satin fabric, it features a wide leg, puff sleeves that cover the upper arms, and a flattering removable tie waist.

Buyers on the hunt for a new pair of jeans, these Hove Blue Denim Spot Wide Leg Crop Jeans could be just the ticket. Now 38, down from 62, they add a fun twist to a wardrobe staple and can be paired with virtually anything.
