Labo Mono

The new coat is completely waterproof & comfortable too.
Not being a particularly straight person the side zips make all the difference to get a jersey in underneath.
Its a good way out of a complete re model for a womans' cut.
So far so good!

So far I am loving this jacket. However I have only worn it a few times due to dry weather here. I have many coats and jackets. I love the appearance of the jacket it gets attention. So far the material seems breathable enough and is comfortable to wear. I am looking forward to bad weather.

Would I buy the jacket again? Yes.

Would I change anything about it? Yes. I am around 6ft 2ins tall and would like the jacket to be slightly longer it barely covers my winter mid layer garments. The neck is slightly too tight with stand up neck mid layers in fact I can't wear my favourite one. I find the cuff arrangement a bit odd elastic and strap? I would prefer just strap. The pocket stuff sack is a little small.

I love the jacket overall. My comments here are trying to achieve perfection.

And it was completely worth it.

I spotted this jacket back in late 2020 - not exactly a time when people were venturing into the great soggy unknown, due to the obvious 2020 shenanigans. I had kept the link in my Favourites and kept pondering if it was worth the risk, or if the money could be put towards something else. Finally in December 2021,I decided (after a small amount of whisky) to take the plunge.

The jacket fits perfectly and has pockets that not only fit snacks, but wallets, phones and iPods. It feels cosy and not in the least bit frumpy. It is large enough to fit a fleece underneath but still remain comfortable and stylish, and the armpit zippers are one of the best inventions I have encountered on a jacket. I actually feel a bit bad that I only bought this jacket in black as the patterns are excellent, but I think I might persuade my other half that he needs an alternate waterproof jacket, especially one with snack pockets!

This is a great jacket! I've worn it lots since I first got it, and it's been great for all uses. Excellent for cycling, side pockets accessible when wearing gloves, pit zips do a good job. Side zips are a great innovation, so if you have hips you can size down so the whole jacket fits and use the zips to get more space, rather than getting swamped in a jacket that's altogether too big (settled on size XS, female, 5'7", normally a generous size 12ish). Lining means it's comfy to wear and doesn't get too sweaty. Have been caught in the rain a few times and it's kept me nice and dry (no downpours yet but I'm confident and hopeful...). Looks good off the bike/out of outdoors clothes too, not too technical for around town. Really pleased that it's sustainably made using recycled materials, and it feels nice (soft and matt, not crunchy). Only improvement I'd make is to have looser cuffs with velcro to fasten them tighter, so easier to get winter gloves underneath. Really good customer service, too, especially as it was over Christmas. All round - recommended!

I’m so so impressed with the quality and fit of my urban jacket. It feels so sturdy without being heavy. I love the colour (mustard) and the design of the pockets is super handy. Ali’s customer service was also brilliant when I had made a mistake he rectified it so quickly and I really appreciate it. I use my jacket for my cycle commute and it is perfect for that I’m so excited to see how it wears in spring as I think it will be the perfect layer. Great jacket and great company I highly recommend.

I had spent ages looking for a truly waterproof jacket, sustainably made and with a look different to the usual sports / hiking gear.

So happy to find Labo Mono - it's well made, looks good, feels great and fits perfectly inbetween a casual jacket and serious outdoor gear.

My only problem was which design / colour to choose!

I’ve had my eye on these jackets for a while so treated myself for Christmas. The fit is great thanks to the side zips but it would be good to see a better fit even without these (I bought small as I think the medium would be too big on the shoulders and arms). Really comfortable to wear, not noisy or stiff as many waterproof jackets are. I’ve yet to try it out in the rain.

This is the best jacket I’ve EVER had! Everything has been thought of. I love the recycled fabric and the hood is incredible. Pockets for days and the hip zips are genius! The print is so fab, I’m in love.

My wife loved her new jacket.

Soft feeling ,good fit ,stylish,waterproof

This style is so universal, there are 4 people wearing them in our family now - from a 50+ to a cool 18 year old. All love the style and quality. My son was hoping it would rain the other day so he could flex to his mates …
Definitely recommend.

It’s a really fun design and seems well made.Can’t wait to wear it.

Absolutely love my jacket. Super comfortable, great fit and the colour is a great way to add some fun to dark, rainy walks.

Fantastic service

Perfect : Beautiful and comfortable !
