As yoox is very bad on photos, details and models of the items they sell, do you know if this one is an Aquamac Tompkin model? Anybody has it? Is this more appropriate for summer than autumn?

I already have an old Aquascutum navy mac and a classic Burberry trench, but both are bellow the knee legth and pretty large and I have a feeeling they make me look 10 years older, so I do not wear them much. I know the Aquascutum Tompkin is not very functional for a raincoat and maybe too shiny or fashion-oriented for this forum, what do you think?

First, I don't think it's a mac, but a light weigh synthetic hybrid. It looks summery and fashion-oriented to me, and not very heavy weight. But if you wear it in the summer, you'll probably get several years use out of it.

Well, not a mac, a simple light weight raincoat.

I do not really need it because I have already enough coats/jackets, but it's more fun than the ones I have (navy/black/tan), although I would prefer other brighter colors (orange/green), not everybody's taste
