Raincoat Suggestions

[cultrara]

I'm in need of a new raincoat and I was hoping you guys could give me some suggestions. Ideally, I'd like something that was more towards the classy side than technical.

I really like the style of this jacket, especially the back pocket, but its not waterproof enough.

+k for any help

Haglofs. Most waterproof stuff I've ever seen and have, wish they made tall winter jackets because then I would jump on that bandwagon

I got this columbia rain jacket for my bday from the gf and love it. May not be your style or brand likeness but it's super packable and I mountain biked in the rain yesterday and was completely dry (except my pants lol). the omni-dry stuff is awesome.

I have an arcteryx rain jacket that is great but it does make you look kind of a goon

Does that even have a hood? A rain jacket is useless without a hood lol

yeah I don't even know why they even make them like that, although judging by that spiffy model I'd assume that's more street wear than it is an actual rain jacket haha.

Saw this at the store today. Hood but no back pocket.

If you want a non tech look but real waterproofing check out Fjällraven jackets with their g1000 fabric.

They have several styles of jackets. The great thing about the g1000 fabric is you can wax it so it stays waterproof. It works really good, I have a winter parka and its great! Looking for a summer jacket at the moment..
