Childhood Rainwear Jealousy

Most of us have had this fun affliction since as far back as we can remember. Does anyone else remember feeling intense envy and jealousy over other kids that had rainwear that you wished you had. I often fantasized about stealing raincoats from the classroom when nobody was looking, though I never ...

Re: Gender and rainwear

I have ALWAYS liked raincoats no matter WHO wears it, however at that moment I am only focused on the coat. Not the gender of the person. Nowadays, in the USA, you don't see PVC coats at all, unfortunately, unless they are retro like mine. And most folks into them are too afraid to wear them out ...

It's not all about "that stuff" as much as it is a driving factor. It's also about the fact that I just ...

Re: Mackintosh obsession

Certainly a GREAT addition to the activity. However, I love my wife more than the world and it is NOT a must. Just a nice fringe benefit when we throw it in the mix. Been a lifelong thing to me, finally told her years ago, and she was surprisingly receptive. As such, we just throw it in the mix ...

PUL Yellow/Blue Reversible Rainsuit

All / Gaz-

I ordered the thick reversible blue / yellow rainsuit from PUL last year.

The site now says they are out of stock. Is there a plan to get these again? If so, can it be ordered through the US company eventually?

Thank you!

Re: Smooth or textured/patterned

Textured on one side with a reversible smooth side that I always wear in. I roll back the cuffs so I can feel the smooth side against my hands

Today's PVC Raincoat

Its raining here instead of snowing and it is quite a nice day to wear one of my favorite raincoats. My favorite reversible style with stripes on the sleeves. I can't wait to go home, hopefully it keeps raining!

Reviving Thread: Reversible PVC Vinyl

Hello,

I did some research and wanted to revive this thread ...

The blue / yellow reversible 100% PVC raincoats that were popular in the 80s-90s can still be produced. They are currently made as children's rain wear. I work in international trade, so I did some research and found the company ...
