Rains Reviews and Ratings

This backpack looks way cooler in person than the photos convey! It is sleek, matte, and stylish. I love the snaps and the laptop pocket. It is very roomy inside and totally waterproof. My city (Taipei) gets a LOT of rain and some of it is acidic (ugh). I wanted a backpack that would really keep my stuff dry and safe but still had a chic urban aesthetic. This backpack is perfect for that. My one qualm is that the backpack seems to excel in every area except for the straps... The straps are your average cheap backpack straps. If you are carrying anything heavy or wearing this backpack for a while without a jacket they will rub you uncomfortably. If you are wearing this backpack over a raincoat or another heavy jacket you'll be fine. I've only noticed it when I am wearing just a tank or t-shirt.

The fit was perfect however it had a weird smell

This coat is so warm. Keeps me nice and toasty through the NYC winter. I like the boxy look and the length. It's has a bit of a tomboy look which is refreshing from all the cookie-cutter feminine silhouettes out there. Very edgy yet chic. I am usually a M and sized to a S and it's perfect with a little extra room for layers.

Overall, I'm pleased with this purchase and I like that this is waterproof, not 'water resistant' like so many other jackets on the market. The material can be slightly scratchy if you're wearing short sleeves, but not too annoying. I like that it has air vents in the upper back hiding beneath the flap so it doesn't feel like you're wearing a trash bag- it can actually breathe. I also really like the length and the fact that the pockets keep things inside dry (phone). The hood is also great. The price is fair and it looks nice, would recommend.

I wish the jacket had a zipper because I find the buttons cumbersome and the gaps (between the buttons) too wide. I haven't tested it out yet, but I think the length is useful and the coverage decent. Hopefully it's good in the rain!
