Nice. I like the top one too. Are the seethru ones made by Plastico?

PUL. Their PVC, at 200 microns, is thicker whilst retaining its softness, which suits me just fine. Never heard of Plastico before.

Bought online about 1 year ago from 'Big Kid Rainwear Company', who are no longer around, unfortunately. Essentially, it's an adult-sized colourful kid's style raincoat made from smooth, shiny and sticky PVC. Whilst this variety of PVC fabric was once commonly used in rainwear, nowadays it is hard to come by. Probably the stupid EU phthalate plasticiser ban has got something to do with it. The most comparable material is probably PUL's Shiny Patent PVC.

I bought one of the first raincoats from big kids rainwear and and isn't really shiny or sticky. I have a few see thru raincoats from pul but they are not very shiny or sticky either. I've won a few plastico raincoats on ebay and they are super shiny and they constantly stick to themselves. Putting them away is a bitch and a half.
