MacMac used to make unlined rubber raincoats (shiny on the outside, matt on the inside) in a material they called rubberette.rainwearseeker wrote: ↑January 1st, 2023, 3:53 pm what was the brand that made mackintoshes out of unlined rubber? i once saw one for sale on ebay for over 1000 USD if i remember correctly.

Oh my god! Rubberette and MacMac that brings back some memories. Brimley Mills (?) Beaminster, Dorset if my memory is correct. Lovely stuff and well made, or at least what I had off them was good.

Peter and Julia certainly knew what made us (and them) tick. Their fashion shows at the old Mackintosh Society gatherings were out of this world for a (then) young man.
