the relaxed A-line cut accommodates sweaters through the waist and hips, so most can wear their true size for layering a midweight knit, but if you plan to zip a bulky shearling or heavy down sweater underneath, sizing up one size keeps the shoulders and upper back comfortable without compromising the coat’s lines.","back_vent_with_waterproof_flap":"A large mesh panel across the upper back, hidden under a waterproof flap, actively vents heat buildup caused by layering — so wearing a sweater and the quilted liner inside a completely waterproof shell doesn’t turn into a sweatbox, keeping you comfortable from 10°C spring showers down to near-freezing maritime drizzle."},"entry_quotes":{"ykk_two_way_zip":[{"url":"https://www.samuelandco.ca/products/mernini-48-length-waterproof-raincoat","quote":"YKK® waterproof two-way zipper plus magnetic front closure and snap button details for secure wear"},{"url":"https://escapism.to/reviews/gear/mernini-raincoat/","quote":"a strong, two-way zip lets me give my legs a little more room, whether I'm speed-walking or taking a seat."}],"48_inch_maxi_length":[{"url":"https://www.samuelandco.ca/products/mernini-48-length-waterproof-raincoat","quote":"Length: 48” long for maximum coverage"}],"quilted_long_liner_vest":[{"url":"https://escapism.to/reviews/gear/mernini-raincoat/","quote":"It fits inside seamlessly, without the feeling of any extra bulk or weight, and it's fashionable enough that you can just wear it on its own as a cute outer-layer."}],"cotton_backed_a_line_drape":[{"url":"https://www.samuelandco.ca/products/mernini-48-length-waterproof-raincoat","quote":"Full-length A-line shape allows easy layering over outfits with room to move"},{"url":"https://vitamagazine.com/2025/10/26/merninis-founder-on-how-her-coats-are-made-for-rain-designed-for-you-win/","quote":"Cotton offered the perfect balance;
