Hi,
Popped into the Primark store in MK1 shopping centre and they had two whole rails of the red pvc mac (yes real pvc not PU). nice styling zip and popper front, matt red outside and shiny red inside. No drawstrings at the waist or hood but hood fits nicely. Size 16 was reasonable could have done the the 18 over the shoulders. But the solid PU macs from a few years ago swamped me in an 18. Very good for £13

I have been into my local branch several times now since reading of these on here and they're never in. I'm a bit fed up now, when you see a mac coming into a high street department store on here, but it's never in your local one. Ours is quite big, aswell. The staff didn't even know what I was talking about when I asked about them. This happened with all the Topshop ones a few years ago, the ones that were in shiny red etc, if you live in a big city, you're alright.
Shame these are made from a sort of relatively 'quiet' semi-transparent/frosted clear PVC, as opposed to shiny glass clear PVC, which makes a squeaky, crackly or rustling sort of noise when handled or worn
(like, for example, those clear Target 'jelly jackets' featured in a few YouTube videos):
I was in Blackpool a few days ago and managed to persuade the wife to buy two of them. She bought a red/orange one at the new price of £5. She went for the size 20 so she can have a thick coat on underneath when she is on our canal boat. She also purchased a size 18 in the clear version which was still priced at £13. They have two full rails of them in the Blackpool store.Sorry there are no pictures. I had to catch her in a good mood to buy in the first place!
