Me, too. My preferred fastening has always been silver press studs, or poppers as we used to call them.

When I was at boarding school I developed a love for my school regulation gaberdine mackintosh, and this has stayed with me all my life, but I have worn rubber mackintoshes and rubber anoraks. They are more practical these days. I especially like the heavy duty nylon anoraks that I've got as they have a thick rubber lining as well. They have a very good hood and the front zips right up to my nose.
I love wearing one (or more!) under my gaberdine mackintosh or under my anoraks. They are really thick and heavy and soon bring out a lovely warmth inside.
All my mackintoshes and anoraks must have hoods and they are worn up more than down!

I love the old pakamac plastic type as they rustle and smell so good, just thinking of slipping one on excites. I also like the nylon ones and often wear my plastic/pvc pinny underneath when out for a walk so i have to keep them fastened so no one sees me.
