Women's Raincoats
Waterproof and water-resistant are not the same claim. A hydrostatic head rating in millimetres describes how much water pressure the fabric holds before it wets through: around 5,000mm handles ordinary rain, while 10,000mm and above copes with a long, heavy soaking. Seams matter just as much, because needle holes leak. Fully taped seams seal every stitch line, while critically taped versions cover only the shoulders, hood and pockets.
Styles run from packable lightweight shells and cropped anoraks to long storm coats cut to cover a skirt. Hoods may be fixed, roll-away or detachable, and storm flaps, drawcord hems, taped zips and vented backs keep water out while letting heat escape. Coated cottons, laminated technical nylon, rubberised finishes and clear or translucent panels each handle a downpour differently.
