Does anyone know how I might obtain one of these transparent (glass clear) green Deston PVC raincoats in the UK?

My grasp of Czech is pretty nonexistent.

My grasp of Czech is pretty nonexistent.

Some years ago there was already a discussion about Deston:

Could anyone who speaks Czech or who has had previous dealings with Deston kindly help me to obtain some of these Deston raincoats? The main problem I'm having is the communication difficulty; Google Translate is giving me some rather nonsensical Czech-English translations! I emailed Deston a list of the raincoats I'd like to buy, but I have not received any reply. It would be easier for me if Deston would accept my payment in advance through my secure and fully authenticated PayPal account.

I made the experience that they do not speak german, nor english.
I was there in 2012 and they were friendly, but they do not do sending items.
They are based in Prague.
You can purchase the "Florence" coats quite easily,
however they dont have all the sizes in all the clours,
just what is left, and what is available.

There are some colours that you wont get in size XL, since they run pretty small.
XXL is very rare nowadays, since their Florence raincoat line is a few years old now.

Why go to all this trouble when you can simply pick the phone up and speak to a english speaking person who will be able to provide you with a good Glass clear coat from PVC-U-LIKE? Simples!

PVC-U-Like offer some excellent glass clear raincoats (I have quite a few of their PVC raincoats), but I would like to buy one in Glass Clear Green, which is offered by Deston, but not PUL. Also, I would like to buy one of Deston's adult-sized 'Danny' raincoats, which appears to be made from a shiny, squeaky PVC material.

Hi PVC!

Just to let you know, I managed to purchase a glass clear blue deston Mac and a multi coloured adult sized "Danny" plastic mac a few years ago with the help of a forum member, and I have to say I was disappointed!


I too liked the look of the children's style plastic mac but it was quite thin and not at all squeaky like I imagined, same problem with the clear mac, it had the feeling of a much cheaper disposable mac

Saying that though, my partner looked great when she wore the child's mac out shopping!!

Hi. I got raincoats from Deston a while back and found no problems. Just a little emailing required to get bank details for a money transfer to them. It took me 2/3 emails and I had it all done and yes, it was conducted in English. No problems. I really liked the coats btw.
