Rainwear refers to clothing designed to protect the wearer from rain and wet conditions. Common types of rainwear include raincoats, waterproof jackets, and umbrellas. These garments are typically made from materials that repel water, such as Gore-Tex or coated nylon, ensuring that the wearer stays dry. In addition to keeping dry, rainwear often features breathable fabrics to prevent overheating. Many rainwear items are lightweight and packable, making them convenient for travel. Accessories like waterproof pants and rain boots can also be included to provide complete protection against wet weather.
