Testimonials


Dear Howard,

Recently, a friend of mine gave me her red with plaid lining, above the knee, Thermal-Slicks by MTC coat which she had purchased in Comox, Vancouver Island, BC while living there a few years ago. Were it not for the fact that she has shed some weight during the last year she would not have done so. Good for her/lucky for me!

Having grown up in northern Ontario, I've had my share of quality, well made coats during the past 62 years. My mother bought the best quality available to her, in the north and in Toronto, and taught me what to look for.

Today, in North Bay, Ontario, it was cold/rainy/windy and necessary that I go about my errands so, I gave Sharon's coat a 'test run'.

It is important to me to convey to you, immediately, my highest praise! 

The style/cut of the collar and hood interact at the junction of the top of the zipper/dome fastener/hood to minimize cold, rainy, air getting in while hood is popped up/flipped back frequently in going from outdoors to indoors.

The smoothness of the zipper, weighted pulls for anatomically angled pockets, generous allowance through the yoke, hood buttons with clear button supports, hook loop and fabric generosity in the madras, cotton, lining of body (sleeves lined in nylon for easy slide) all contribute to a finely made, efficient to use product.

The covered button at the top is a darling touch, too. Women appreciate the details!
Sharon let me know me that it can be a bit too warm at times but today it was 100% needed!
Please convey my compliments to your design department.

There are two things I will take this opportunity to mention for potential development of your design.

1) a two-way zipper  
2) finished inside cuffs so that people with a bit shorter arms, such as mine, could turn up the cuffs with a more finished appearance (as found on the L.L Bean barn coat).

The way the cuffs are finished work/look alright turned up, though, with 3/8ths inch of the coat's exterior and a perfectly matched red lining bordering the plaid!   

Many thanks for all you've done, collectively, to produce such a great rainy/windy day coat!
It is an classic example of fashion and function. Kudos!

Sincerely,

N.D.
North Bay, Ontario

Hello,

Last year I purchased a MTC Rain Coat and loved it. It was purchased in Greenville Maine. Went back and they do not carry them anymore. Where can I get my hands on another.

Please and thank you for your prompt attention in this matter. I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.

Kindest regards,

A.J.

My wife has been wearing( and has worn out) The Original Foul Weather Comfort ..THERMAL-SLICKS...by MTC. She has looked everywhere locally for a replacement but to no avail, including the store she bought her original coat from.

Hers is yellow with a navy polyester lining throughout size 14-16. It has an attached hood, also lined, with two zippered pockets on the front. She has had it patched so many times it looks like a quilt

Can you tell me where I can find her a replacement coat or two? We live in Surrey B.C.. If there is a local outlet please let me know or can we buy over the web??

yours truly

B.E.

To whom it may concern,

I live in New Glasgow Nova Scotia. I came across one of your Thermal Slicks raincoats, and really think they are a terrific style coat for our damp rainy weather. Unfortunately, none my size in that store. So here I am, hopefully following procedure to obtain one.

The style # is 2400. My preference in color would be either black (plaid inside) or red (plaid inside) Thanking you in advance ,

I have had this MTC Thermalslicks jacket for many years (>10). I would love to find a replacement. It is the perfect coat for Vancouver winters. Could you please tell me if you still have something similar and where I could get one.

Thanks!

Hello –

I am desperately trying to locate a store in Toronto that carries your product. I have had a Thermal-slick raincoat for approximately 15 years and, sadly, it needs to be replaced.

My postal code is M4S XXX but any store in the Toronto vicinity will do. I have checked Mark’s Work Wearhouse but have never seen your raincoats there.

Regards,

Tracy

Hi

I have had one of your Thermal Slicks for many years now but alas it is beginning to rip. I would love to replace it. I originally bought it at a boutique in Pointe Claire. I now live in Kingston Ontario but I would be happy to order it from anywhere and pay delivery as I have enjoyed it so much.

Please help! I need a size small…

Thanks so much.

My wife bought a raincoat many years ago in Montreal from your company and she loves it and wants another. How do we find this coat in Ontario? Can we order from you? Thanks for your help.

Hello MTC:

I have been looking for your Thermal-Slicks brand rainwear in my area and also on the internet. I had purchased a Thermal-Slick jacket some years ago but can not find them here anymore. I have tried other rainwear for this time of year but nothing compares to the thermal lined pvc of the Thermal Slick. I had hoped you might be able to assist me in finding a Mens size M-rg, in a navy blue plaid lined, hooded hip length jacket.

Thank you so much,

Regards

Hi,

I purchased one a few years back in Quebec; and love the product..
Now my boss would like one as she walks here dog…even wet Ontario days.

Can you tell me if there’s anywhere in Ontario these are sold?

Thank you for your time.

Hi - My wife is pretty upset that our puppy tore her very favorite raincoat in a moment of exuberance while walking with her.

I believe that it's a 212C in pink. Do you have any retailers here in Connecticut, Massachusetts or Rhode Island? Otherwise, I think the puppy isn't going to get her morning run through the fields on damp mornings....and that would be a problem because she then heads to work with me far too full of energy!

Thanks!
