Rainwear Central Rainwear Forum

Why is it that we all love the smocks best? I love the Peter Storm ones (both trad and the recent Size remakes). Against the skin is best and full rainsuit. I mainly wear 2 layers...

Over the head cagoules are always the best, maybe it is because there is no front zip so there is more nylona or plastic against your skin or that feeling your slipping into your cagoule which sometime feels like its almost trapping you

Yay!, always nice to hear someone else loves these cagoules. Most people on this forum are into PVC macks and suchlike.
Seems to be little to no love for the old blue cagoules with the narrow 1 inch wide 3 stripe ribbon down the arms.

Have put some up for sale in my shop in our premloved area from my collection i am thinging down.

Have a blue one and red one with the stripes, £5 each

Bet they make wonderful sounds.

They squeal like a stuck pig.

I remember as a kid wearing my sisters peter storm cag, with waterproof trousers. Of course, I would put my mums nylon mack on top. The noises were exquisite.

In the early 80's I had a Regatta cagoule and matching overtrousers which were both proofed by means of smooth rubber linings. I used to like going out to the local paper shop on wet Sundays wearing just the trousers against my bare skin. Quite "arousing".
