We've certainly written more than once about the woes of winter, the rain and the cold. We've also enjoyed pointing out, more than once, how many people absolutely love the season, as it's the perfect excuse to whip out all of the winter fashion like long coats, faux fur-lined boots, fluffy scarves and the like.
The only problem with most winter fashion, however, is that no matter how good it looks and how warm it can keep you, it simply can't hold up against wetter weather. Ever tried dancing in the rain in those faux fur-lined boots? Yes? Noticed how they smelled like a wet dog for days after? Ever worn that long coat down a set of outdoor stairs in the middle of a storm? Yes? Noticed the bits and pieces of everything it dragged along with it?
Let's get real, you need something that's gonna keep you as dry as South Africa's energy supply. Something like our main deal of a men's waterproof shell jacket from Custom Apparel.
