Product Insights
The Ellen Raincoat, priced at $79 CAD, offers a matte, urban aesthetic with recycled polyester that reduces energy and CO2 emissions, but prioritizes style over technical performance: it lacks pit zips, taped seams, and breathable membrane, trapping heat during activity, and its PU coating typically lasts only one season. The matte finish hides scratches and glare, and the adjustable hood provides coverage but reduces visibility in wind. Fit is true to size, with hand-rest pockets without closures.
Verified claims
- Environmental impact
- Compared to virgin polyester, recycled polyester requires 59% less energy and targets a 32% reduction in CO2 emissions.
- Durability
- Recycled polyester has the same strength and durability as virgin polyester.
- Value
- At $79 CAD, the Ellen undercuts technical shells like the REI Rainier ($135 CAD) but trades pit zips, taped seams, and breathable membranes.
- Matte finish
- The shell has a waterproof matte-coated finish that hides scratches and glare; hand-wash to preserve the PU layer.
- Style positioning
- Features a waterproof matte-coated shell and clean silhouette; it lacks pit zips, taped seams, and a breathable membrane.
- Longevity
- Reviewers of similar Only raincoats report average PU coating longevity of about one season of regular wear.
- Fit
- Straight fit; multiple reviews note it runs generous, so sizing up for a sweater may not be necessary.
- Hood adjustability
- Adjustable drawstring hood for custom fit.
- Breathability
- The PU-coated shell has no breathable membrane, so it traps heat and moisture during active use like walking in the rain.
- Hood shape retention
- Hood lacks a brim or wire; cinching the drawstring provides a closer fit but does not add structured shape.
- Design priority
- The Ellen Raincoat, merchandised under Simons' Twik label, prioritizes fashion-first urban style over technical rainwear features, with a waterproof matte-coated shell and snap-button front placket.
- Materials
- Recycled polyester front and lining with matte PU coating; 59% less energy than virgin polyester.
- Glare reduction
- Matte finish avoids glare under streetlights and flash, keeping black rich.
- Scratch concealment
- Matte finish hides minor scratches and scuffs from everyday wear.
- Hood vs hem
- Adjustable hood trades hem adjustment for head coverage in wind-driven rain.
- Pocket design
- The Ellen Raincoat includes hand-rest pockets.
- Machine washing
- Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild detergent, then air dry flat away from direct heat; hand washing is safest for preserving the waterproof PU coating.
- PU coating failure mode
- The PU coating can crack or peel over time, especially with machine washing or high-heat drying; hand washing and air drying reduce the risk.

Staying dry on walks in light rain
This waterproof raincoat is suited for walking or light hiking when the forecast calls for light rain. Customer reviews point to its generous hood and long sleeves providing coverage without restricting movement, and the hood has an adjustable drawstring for a closer fit.[1]
Staying comfortable on cool, damp-weather walks
For walks or light hikes in light rain, this lightweight raincoat keeps you moving comfortably — reviewers describe the airy, non-stuffy fabric as breathable during active use, and the roomy cut leaves space to layer a sweater underneath in cool weather. Note that the generous fit runs large, and some reviewers found it a full size too big, so it may feel overly loose if you want a more tailored look.[1]
A simple everyday raincoat for daily wear
The Ellen Raincoat's clean, classic style and good finishing make it an easy jacket to reach for day to day, without a sporty look. Hand rest pockets give you a place to slip your hands, as shown in the product images.[1,2]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Ellen Raincoat: Choose this if you want a lightweight, waterproof mid-thigh raincoat for layering and active use in cool, damp or light-rain weather: it has an adjustable drawstring hood, snap-button front, hip-level pockets, and a recycled-polyester shell with PU coating that reviews describe as airy rather than stuffy. Its simple, non-sporty look works as an everyday jacket in Black, Green, or Red across sizes X-Small to X-Large. Note that it runs large — most reviewers like the roomy cut for layering, but some find it a full size too big, so consider sizing down if you prefer a more tailored silhouette.[1,2,3] | Polka Dot Quilted Jacket: Choose this if you want a short, hip-length quilted jacket with a playful polka dot print — this Brown Polka Dot style has a point collar, full-length snap buttons, two front patch pockets, diamond quilting, and piped trim at the hem and pockets. It's made entirely of recycled polyester (shell, lining, and filling) and comes in sizes X-Small through X-Large. Note the slightly boxy straight fit is described from how it appears on the model, so length and fit may vary by wearer.[4,5,6,7] | Quilted Floral Jacket: Choose this if you want a cropped, boxy quilted jacket with a relaxed, slightly oversized fit that ends near the waist, covered in an allover small blue floral print on a light background. It has a low stand collar, full-length snap-button placket, two front flap pockets with contrast piping, and long straight-cuffed sleeves in 100% polyester. It comes in Patterned White in sizes X-Small through Large, and note the cropped length sits near the model's waist, so it may suit you best if you like a shorter jacket.[8,9,10,11] |

Excellent all round raincoat
Arm length long enough, generous hood, good cut and finishing
Pratique
Me convient pour sa simplicité, son classique.
Printemps tardif
Bien hâte d’être en mesure d’avoir une autre appréciation, fait grand
Nicely made
I bought a med, which I usually wear. It is quite generous in sizing.
Great fit and style
I was looking for a light weight not stuffy rain jacket and this was perfect. The size is roomy as I am usually between a large and extra large and this fit comfortably in large with room.
