Rainwear on the highstreet

[pvc_pete]

Until outdoor festivals are properly back up and running, rainwear as we like it, isn't likely to make that much of a resurgence. Let's face it, we live in the age of the car, so for most women now the only time they wear proper raincoats is when they are outdoors for a long period of time. So that means walkers and hikers (boring technical Goretex) or festivals (funky pvc/plastic/rubber rainwear).

Pete, I think you are right. Festivals have been a good source of funky rainwear, and have the knock on effect that their effect permeates to the mainstream, so hopefully the high street will become shinier places with festival rainwear.
