Hi Mason,
They look like the Mango coats that were around a few years ago.
But looking at the url (french) they could be from one of their department stores. I've found the french and germans to still be in love with shiny rainwear. French women especially seem to find shiny black and coloured macs very fashionable (esp in PAris) whereas in London, women seem to think they look like hookers.
At least the Festival scene has reaquainted younger women with shiny waterproof rainwear.

Re: does anybody know where I can buy these?
You're so right about attitudes to macs in London/England. I worked in London for over 30 years and often wore a mac of some kind or another to my various offices when the weather required it. During the whole of that time only a few my female colleagues (of all ages) showed any particular interest. I almost got as far as fixing up one of my secretaries with one of the Harglenis shiny polyurethane macs that were popular in the mid 1980's at mates' rates. However, when she told her husband he said it would be useful if "she wanted to go up King's Cross to earn a bob or two." Suffice it to say that she dropped the idea like a hot brick. I did, however, once manage to loan a full-blooded Weather or Not SBR to a very fetching lady for her lunchtime shopping trip. I'm still not sure if I was teasing her or she was teasing me.

I'm French and I have a passion for shiny raincoats. But in our country, I don't find that women dream enough to weave these raincoats that I love so much. I would love to see more of them and I would also like to see the fashion for shiny raincoats reach men.
