I like how it looks, not the fan of super synthetic materials and a high-tech feel - the mesh lining, the inside pockets that looks like pockets of a hiking jacket. I think JelleKelle said it good - though I think it has a bit more elegance than the average dress sneaker.

The lines on the pockets and cuffs and lapels look nice to me, would be nicer if they had stitching though and the material was natural with some light padding/warmth, not just a single layer of tech fabric.

And the price is absolutely ridiculous for a tech coat to me. The guys will be matching Loro Piana with these tendencies soon. This is getting out of my budget I'd want to spend on that type of coat, unfortunately.

The Teclor has their coats at about 800 eur in their store, still expensive, but this is more than double...

I think the storm coat has style wise nothing to do with the rest of the collection. Really odd looking coat for the brand…

This for example costs less than half, has great details, looks great and would complement the rest of the collection.

Cannot believe how bad the coat is. The contrasting stripes are hideous.
Knitwear colours are nice. Shetland prices are quite insane tbh.
Disappointed that the scarves are square. I find square scarves a bit annoying to wear.

Agreed, would much rather buy a classic Burberry trench coat for that price.

I agree. The competition at the price level is very strong and I'm not sure whether rubato can keep up everywhere (see, for example, the more reasonably priced Shetlands at Bryceland's, Coherence Coats or the Burberry coats you mentioned).

However lovely colors and knitwear is definitely their strength (I have 5 knitwear pieces from them).

I don't find that coat minimally attractive either, leaving the excessive price aside.

I like their knitwear instead, in terms of style and originality, even though I have no direct experience.
The prices are high, but certainly not outrageous.

not a fan of the coat stripes but the cut looks good. Coherence are well regarded and it uses a good amount of synthetics whiel keeping the details elegant. Although Rubato is yet to reach that level
