A few of my pet peeves:

People who wear hooded sweatshirts as rain gear. They somehow believe that a porous heavy cotton sweatshirt will keep them dry in a thunderstorm just because it has a hood.

I see on the website that the first one (the “poncho” style) also comes in glossy black, while the second, more “traditional” cape style also comes in glossy blue and black. Looks like I will be ordering at least a couple of these in the near future

What about the canadian brand Mernini?

I don’t have a link; just go on instagram and search for Dawn Chubai’s page & scroll through her posts (the post in question was from 31 March 2021. Be warned she is a frequent poster and you will have to scroll through several hundred posts. She donated the coat back in 2017
