The latest forecast is calling for rain, leaving us to pull on our anorak, the only water-repellent (and rather unfashionable) item hanging in the closet.
Luckily, GumDrops, Kitsilano’s go-to shop for adorable rain boots, has launched a namesake line of waterproof, breathable raincoats.
The slim-fitting knee-length Laura ($185) hits the mark with its clean lines, while the Liz ($295) echoes the classic trench with its cinched waist. Extra details include weather-smart hoods, waterproof seams and foolproof colours like black and red (though we love the aubergine and butter yellow shades, too).
We’ll now be leaving our anorak for camping weekends and hiking trails.
