Show us your...RAINCOATS

Sort of odd coming at the beginning of June, but we've had 40 days and 40 nights of rain here in PDX (unseasonably much...really). All I have for a raincoat is what I consider and outdoor jacket, not classy, though I've gotten lots of compliments on it (it's Filson's dry finish tin cloth outfitter jacket).

I'd like to find a swankier raincoat. I don't really dig the London-Fog trenchcoat type things. Just not my style. What do you wear?

I have this Kenneth Cole Reaction black raincoat. It looks totally retro with pointed collars and two flap ****** pockets and long enough to cover my untucked vintage shirts (but not too long). Kind of like a Pendleton jacket but made of black polyster. Looks dressy too. I bought it more five years ago ago in Vegas, wear it all the time, and it still looks new.

Just yesterday, I ordered a traditional trenchcoat from Lands' End. It has leather-covered buckles, back vent, and even an inside pocket. The pocket is unusual in women's wear.

Of course, I got a matching hat.

Show us your raincoats, yes ... but don't flash us.

Would that I could show you mine....... unfortunately I don't (yet) own a raincoat as such. I have rainwear but only a barbour waxed jacket. If I could have one raincoat it would be this !!

I have an olive green trench coat from Marine surplus. I passed on a few Burberry trenchcoats in a vintage store in the Hamptons last year because they were single breasted- I lose sleep over that sometimes.

I used to have an Australian waxed barbour jacket that I liked a lot actually. I might see what I can turn up in that direction.

Aquascutum, made in london, 10 bucks, does it qualify as D/B without the extra row of buttons?Now I need a dark suit to go with it,
