Hey all,
The forecast shows it's gonna be a rainy week down here. Thought I'd ask up what all of you wear on a rainy day around town. I usually stick with jeans, a simple black rain coat, a fleece sweater for warmth and LL bean boots. Any one else?

A leather bomber, one of my Barbours, any number of Filson tin or shelter cloth coats, oilskin drover, Krane bomber, Lacrosse breathable rain coat, goretex rain suit.

Guess it depends on how bad it's raining and whether I'm in it all day or not.

What do you use on the bomber to make it water resistant/ waterproof?

I have a waterproof Newcastle coat from REI that I really like.

Currently just wear what I normally wear, with some rubber soled shoes, but thinking of getting some swims:

Yeah, no joke. I go through enough of it. At least I don't own horses and horse tack anymore. If I did I would be better off buying the company.
