We have rubber boots

Why not rain hats and raincoats? Made from rubber as well?

Maybe your suggestion is -so- good that no discussion is needed? :P

At least on the Finnish region these would get really handy, since it's been raining a lot.

And hard. :evil:
Is there any reason why this suggestion cannot be fast tracked like the winter wear was?

What really sucks is being stuck out on a sloop or something during the rain, you can't even RP taking shelter somewhere.

Since pictures seem to help, here is a masculine version of a raincoat, more to follow later:Image

I think these should contain some sort of fasteners. If we use hemp coat as a base, that comes with laces, but the rubber raincoat should have buttons. I agree it sucks being stuck in a rainy environment without any way to build equipment to protect you from it. I'm not sure if I have the right to accept suggestions, otherwise I'd do it straight away.
