Remember THAT River Island sleeping-bag coat? Well, now it’s half price!

What a STEAL!

Gillian Fitzpatrick

It was the coat that garnered an awful lot of attention.

Being sold by River Island, recently at Her we reckoned the piece would come in useful during the chilly winter months.

Why? Well, the oversized puffer jacket has double padding inside and a detachable blanket which can be zipped right off. Aka it’s a sleeping-bag coat.

Genius!

However, the reservations we had largely involved the rather steep price: the head-turning outerwear was retailing at a cool €242.

No more! Yes, River Island on Saturday kicked-off its winter sale and we’re delighted to see that the sleeping-bag coat has been marked down by 55 percent – and is currently being sold for wholly-reasonable €110.

Hurrah!

The retailer cites the item’s following attributes:

  • Padded fabric
  • Oversized puffer coat design
  • Zipped detachable blanket
  • Cuffed sleeve
  • Funnel neck
  • Concealed zip front fastening

We have to say that although we’re usually pretty broke at this time of year, we’re seriously considering rounding up our Christmas vouchers in order to secure this gem.
