Uniqlo has reduced its Windproof Stand Blouson jacket to £34.90, with the style available in three colours as autumn weather arrives. The jacket comes in wine, off white and grey, and features a mesh lining described as 'comfortable' that does not cling to the skin.
Water-repellent coating
The jacket can repel light rain and is coated with a water-repellent agent so the effect lasts longer, although the waterproof finish is not permanent. Shoppers have noted that the garment is not completely waterproof, meaning it may be best suited for light rain.
Shopper reviews
Reviews on the Uniqlo website praise the jacket's style and practicality. One shopper said: "Perfect little stylish jacket. In fashion but timeless."
A second fan said: "Ideal raincoat and windstopper, lightweight so easy to take with you on trips."
A third shopper added: "Ideal transitional jacket, not too warm and perfect for cycling. The size is perfect, and thanks to the elasticated hem, the jacket stays at an elegant length above your trousers. Highly recommended!"
A fourth review read: "Amazing fit and quality!! As always impressed by the brands product."
Other options
For a more active-looking waterproof jacket, Regatta is selling its Women's Birchdale II Waterproof Jacket, originally priced at £100, reduced to £50. It is described as 'breathable and built for movement' for long autumnal walks.
Another option on the M&S website is the Stormwear Funnel Neck Rain Jacket, priced at £55 in a 'dark oak' colour.
