Pretty mediocre. Not bad, but nothing special. How much does it cost?

foto, aren't you in NL? I saw some very cool and slim Boglioli raincoats on the Beethovenstraat in A'dam at 50% off, which would put them around the same price - EUR450-ish. I'm still kicking myself for not picking one up last time I was there.

Looks like BR or J Crew raincoat. Not sure I understand paying through the nose for a raincoat anyway but I guess that's just me.

Yes I am. Thanks for letting me know. My experience with "Boglioli Coat" has been not so good. Can you please tell me what store you are referring to?

I'm a fan of Borrelli and a bigger fan of Lance's business, but I think there is nothing special about that coat.

Nice coat, but seems a bit pricey.
