When living in a rainy climate, a raincoat that will keep you dry during your daily commute is a necessity on par with food and shelter. For this reason, we recommend a rubber-coated raincoat: the coating makes it easy to wipe dry, prevents it from clinging or feeling staticky, and, most importantly, renders it completely torrential downpour-proof. Brands like Stutterheim and RAINS have stylish models that will keep you dry and stylish.

There’s nothing more classic than a Barbour waxed jacket: loved by British royals and Succession characters alike, a vintage-inspired waxed jacket is guaranteed to become a wardrobe staple for years to come. Albeit not completely waterproof, a waxed jacket can sustain some light rain and be rewaxed at home when it loses its water-repellent properties.
