Anyone would prefer going back to sleep when waking up to the sounds of showers outside. But alas, work/school/errands beckon and the dream of going back to lala-land is shattered. The impending worry of getting stuck in slow traffic and having wet clothes is real. While we cannot do anything about the weather, below are some items that will help ease your troubles in the rain.
Ahirain
Protect from the elements with a street-envy rain poncho.
Alexander McQueen
Alexander McQueen’s cape is perfect for keeping backpacks dry.
Thom Browne
These leg warmers are perfect for keeping the rain and floor puddles from wetting the lower parts of legs.
Comme Des Garçons
But we think less material less problems too, a kilt would work just as well as protection from sodden hems.
Fendi
Always carry a cloth tote and finding your items soaked at the end of the day? Here’s a waterproof tote to consider.
Balenciaga
With this get-up, one can practically walk through the shower. By the time the rain has soaked through to the last layer of the jackets, you would have already returned home for the day.
Calvin Klein 205W39NYC
This pair of boots is perfect for waddling through areas with accumulated water ponds. It also helps alert cars driving pass of humans crossing.
Marni
Might we suggest a pair of covered sandals if one is looking for more wriggle room for his toes.
Givenchy
For more rugged options, the height of the sole stands above the water while the zip fastening makes this shoe almost waterproof.
Raf Simons
Last but not least, a pair of gloves to protect uncovered arms. We also find the casing perfect for storing ez-link cards, providing easy access on board the bus after chasing it down in the rain.
