It's Time For A Real Rain Jacket Mama — One That's Waterproof And Has A Hood

This top seller on Amazon has over 4,000 reviews, with one customer saying, “Have worn this in several soaking rains… kept me dry! It’s been washed a ton, and still looks as good as new two years later.” It’s waterproof, breathable, packable, and has an adjustable hood and hem.

Another packable option, the Patagonia Torrentshell jacket has a three-layer fabric that’s waterproof, windproof, and breathable. The zippers also have a water-repellent treatment and the jacket is Fair Trade Certified sewn.

If you’re looking for a stylish, everyday coat that also happens to be great for rainy days, Topo has you covered. The mid-length trench has internal security pockets, a visor hood, and 10K waterproof rating.

This sleek, soft rain jacket has a hidden phone sleeve and a sweat-wicking liner that will come in handy if you’re heading to work, the gym, or the grocery store (especially if the latter involves bringing small, active children with you).

Stay warm in the comfy, breathable rain coat from Waybridge. This leopard print is our fave, but it if you’re looking for a different print you’ve got your choice between navy polka dots, khaki stars, primroses, and more! One happy customer said, “I wanted a rainproof jacket with a hood, it is surprisingly hard to find ones which are a good enough length (with a hood!), whilst also looking funky. This ticks all the boxes! I love the pattern and the little peak on the hood is a great little feature, as some hoods falls too far forward but this gives you extra coverage (perfect for fringe peeps like me!), whilst still allows you to still be able to see. Sweet shape, works great with my A-line skirts. Love it!”

This classic jacket has waterproof stretch fabric, welded seams, hidden under-arm vents, and big front pockets for keeping your hands and small accessories protected.

Why save color blocking for only your sunny day outfits? This long raincoat (hits just above the knee) has a soft lining and will make sure you look sharp no matter the weather outside.

When you’re not sure what the weather will bring but don’t want to be weighed down by a bulky rain jacket, the North Face Venture 2 is the ideal companion. It’s lightweight, has a relaxed-fit, is waterproof, and packs into a hand pocket, providing protection in a pinch.

The water-resistant ReNew Anorak is good for the weather and the world — the fabric is 100 percent recycled and made from 28 plastic water bottles. It also has an oversized fit to allow for extra layers underneath. At Everlane, you’ll also get three color options: light taupe (pictured), royal blue, and a creamy canvas.

Pair your go-to wellies with a bright, lightweight rubber jacket that will make you look forward to going out in the rain. It’s waterproof, windproof, and has a mesh lining and vented back for breathability.

When you really need to keep your full outfit dry, sometimes the best solution is a packable poncho. But don’t succumb to the “I threw on a garbage bag” look. A good poncho — like a patterned, zippered, hooded one — can make just the right kind of fashion statement.

This long waterproof rain coat has an A-line shape and adjustable waist and hood. And if you’re going to spend time getting rained on, you might as well have fun sporting a jacket covered with ducks, dogs, horses, or flowers.
