When it comes to men’s rain gear, there are two main categories to consider: footwear and outerwear. You have to get both items right for the weather, or you’ll end up soaked from head to toe. However, you can definitely mix it up depending on the amount of rain.
For heavy downpours, a hiking or bomber jacket is the best route to go because they’ve been designed to be extra waterproof and windproof too. On the other hand, they’ve also been made to be breathable on the inside (most styles have a mesh lining) and super lightweight. With rain-resistant pockets, a concealed hood, a drawstring, elasticated waist, and Velcro cuffs, we’ve thought about every detail when it comes to looking for a waterproof jacket.
A pair of walking boots is a necessity for anyone who lives in the countryside but especially in the rain. Sure, wellies are great but often don’t have the best grip. Lots of people still love to spend time outdoors when it’s raining, so walking boots will give you that extra grip on uneven terrains and through muddy fields and woods. You’ll be grateful for the cushioned ankle support on longer walks and hikes too!
When the rain is more of a spring shower, you’ll be able to get away with a wax jacket, especially if you’re just running in and out of places, such as running errands or a family gathering. They’re a versatile item for any man to have in his wardrobe as they’re probably the dressiest style of jacket out there. If you prefer a different style, a pack-and-go waterproof jacket is a great option to keep in your rucksack or car boot for any unexpected downpours!
A pair of leather market or Chelsea boots is a great option for light rain. Just don’t forget to keep them protected to keep them waterproof with products from our shoe care range!
