Women's Coats & Jackets from Respect
Women's coats sit here with jackets in Respect, the adult line that runs alongside MINOTI childrenswear. There are three groups: raincoats for showers and school runs, parkas for longer and colder days, and puffer jackets, which are padded for warmth. Each group has its own page when you know which you need.
Raincoats are the women's waterproof coats of the three groups, and a women's raincoat with a hood is the practical pick for a UK autumn, because an umbrella is hard to hold with a child's hand in the other. Women's jackets in the parka and puffer groups are mainly about warmth, so check each product page for how they cope with rain. Go by your usual size, and size up only if you plan to layer a thick jumper.
Your questions answered
Respect, the adult line from MINOTI, offers women's coats and jackets including raincoats, parkas and puffer jackets for school runs, wet walks and cold days, in adult sizes shown on each product page.
Should I size up in a women's coat to wear a jumper underneath?
Only for a chunky knit. Most coats leave room for one mid-weight layer, so your usual size is right over a jumper. If you want a thick fleece underneath on 0°C mornings, go up one size.
What is the difference between a parka and a raincoat for women?
A parka is usually longer and made for cold as well as wet days, while a raincoat is lighter and mainly keeps rain out. For a 5°C morning with drizzle, a parka is the warmer choice.
