Such a great feeling. Can I ask what your nylon raincoat looks like? What do you think you would have done if the shoemaker would have asked about the raincoat?
Hello and thank you for the question.
It was a dark blue Italian Lilion nylon raincoat I was wearing. I have a few pieces of this brand.
Why would the shoemaker or anyone else ask about my raincoat? If someone had asked why I was wearing a raincoat, I would have said as it is, that it is because it is a light and windproof coat and comfortable to wear. If someone wanted to ask about my nylon raincoat, maybe it is because they themselves have a love for raincoats??? ;)
I wear one of my nylon raincoats almost daily. :)
So I have seen those Lilion nylon raincoats on eBay. Are they any good? Are the nice and thin or a heavier nylon?
These Lilion raincoats are thin nylon coats and therefore often very worn in the weave and often leak.

Seems to be a bit of a problem with those kind of coats, but they feel and look sooooo good

That's why I mostly wear my nylon raincoats in dry weather - sunny or windy weather. That's when they're the most stiff and noisy. That's what I like about nylon raincoats.

The temperatures are rising again. A good occasion to soak some nice plastic garments with sweat.
I will wear some shiny vinyl jeans and a black shiny trenchcoat until they are soaking. I will treat the inside of the jeans with baby oil beforehand.
