Waterproof Dog Raincoat "Dark Academia Classic" | Mesh Lined, 29 Sizes

Brown tartan, sage green, antique brass.

Classic is the one that started the line. A collar cut from brown tartan flannel, 100% cotton, because that is the part touching your dog for the whole walk. Everything else is technical fabric. Rain doesn't care how a thing looks.

This listing is the mesh-lined version: autumn, spring, mild winter. The plush-lined winter suit is sold separately. Same suit on the outside, a different animal underneath.

What it does

• Membrane fabric: waterproof, windproof and breathable, so it doesn't get stuffy on a long walk
• Brown tartan collar in 100% cotton flannel, cut high on the neck in every size
• Hood
• Adjustable belt at the waist, so the suit sits properly on a lean dog and on a stocky one
• Antique brass snaps
• Light mesh lining
• Full body, all four legs, closed belly
• Elasticated cuffs and an opening for a collar or harness
• Potty opening, cut for boys, girls or unisex

One honest note: the seams are stitched, not taped. In a long downpour a little moisture can find its way through the stitching.

Twenty-nine sizes, six body shapes

A dachshund, a whippet and a french bulldog are not three sizes of the same dog. They are three different shapes. That is why a coat sized S, M, L fits almost nobody properly.

• A standard proportions: chihuahua, westie, jack russell, maltese, cavalier
• B broad-chested: pug, bulldog, french bulldog
• C large breeds: labrador, golden retriever, pointer
• D long back, short legs: dachshund, corgi
• E sighthounds: italian greyhound, whippet, greyhound, saluki, borzoi
• F spaniels: cocker, springer, setter

Sizing

Chest girth decides the size. Back length only confirms it. Measure the back to the base of the tail, not the tip. That is where most people go wrong and order a size too big.

A code ending in -1 (A28-1, C50-1) is the same length with a narrower chest, for dogs built lean rather than stocky.

Caught between two sizes, or a puppy still growing? Send us the chest and back measurements and we'll tell you which to take. We also sew to your own measurements when nothing in the chart fits.

Care

Machine wash at 30°C on a delicate cycle. No bleach, no tumble dryer, don't iron the membrane.
