Hebrides Longline Waterproof Jacket with Removable Hood

I was anticipating this jacket to be slightly large on me due to some of the other reviews + smallest size option being a 4, but I was pleasantly surprised with how well it fit. Sure there’s a little room and it is long on me (hits slightly past knee) but it’s chic af. I am usually an xs/2 but the 4 in this jacket works great. I am 5’3” + ~110lbs. Found my forever rain coat and am super happy about it! ❤️

I’ve worn this twice now walking in the rain. It’s comfortable, seems kind of breathable, the hood is effective, good pockets. I’m thrilled with my purchase.

At 5’2, 98lbs, this one is a miss for me. The material is wonderful but sadly no sizes smaller than a 4 (which is what I bought) so I need to return. A few other design decisions bothered me anyway: no slant pockets to keep your hands warm. (Patch pockets keep items dry but are awkward for hand placement.) And, I much prefer rain coats to have snaps vs buttons. While not on sale, I ordered the Winter Beadnell instead in a size 2 hoping it will offer a better fit and function.

There is a 5-star review on this site from a person in the Pacific NW that had all the right reasoning for why they liked this jacket and they hit the sizing head on. I. typically wear between size 4 and 6, I wanted a jacket that would keep me dry and comfortable in similar conditions to the Pacific NW. I purchased the size 6 and it’s roomy enough for a medium to heavy sweater underneath. The size 4 would have allowed me only a thin sweater. I wanted a jacket with a very good zipper - so many coats lost my interest when the zipper stuck or did not pull easily. This one worked fluidly and there is a layer of snaps over it for extra protection from the elements. They work easily too. The hood is roomy and easy to get on/off quickly and the pockets are spacious. On my initial test run in moderate blowing rain this jacket kept me completely dry. I feel confident that by adding a warm sweater I should be fine into the low 40’s or mid 30’s (farenheight) and I tend to run cold. One or two people said the jacket was shapeless. I think it depends on how you size it and if you want to be able to layer underneath it. This is an obviously well made jacket that looks like quality while keeping you dry and comfortable. I am very pleased with this purchase.

want a real rain coat this is the one, it is not fitted (sleeves and arm holes are cut so as I could wear a heavy sweater or Blazer underneath. hood detaches easily, light weight, zip front, lined, zip lined pocket inside.

I haven't worn it in the rain, but I have another Barbour that is waterproof, so I trust the labeling (waterproof and breathable) on this style. I could wear a 10 in this, but because it is lightweight, I want to wear a quilted jacket beneath it for colder weather. There is ample room, without looking huge, to do this. I think the dark navy color keeps it from looking too big. It is knee-length (I usually wear 3/4 length rain coats). This longer length, in my opinion, is better for anyone walking a lot in a city in wet weather. The zipper is substantial and two-way for unzipping the bottom for sitting. My iPhone fits in the inside pocket with enough room for keys and lipstick. The pocket flaps have hidden snaps and are large enough to carry extras. I don't like to carry a nice leather purse in the pouring rain, so I find value in these pockets. There is a back vent to unsnap if you have a long walking stride, or want to sit it in on a metro or in a car. I'm not a fan of hoods, so I'm happy to say this one is easy to detach to keep the coat from looking too casual on dry days when traveling. It is very easy to attach with sturdy snaps, in gold, like the zipper, if not carrying an umbrella. Very high quality from Barbour. I look forward to taking this to Europe and the UK in autumn and spring.
