Vegan Scot. I received one of these from Scotweb last Friday and I am impressed with the quality of the build. At first they are a bit stiff but with a bit a folding and scrunching the become soft and pliable. I have not had it out in a downpour yet but wore it yesterday in drizzle and it worked fine.
It has two large front pockets and allows air movement thru it as it is a waxed cotton (very similar to the Australian Driazabone coats) I am impressed by the coat and is far superior to the nylon/plastic ones of the same style and should last a lifetime.
