The long rains appear to be here (it is hard to be certain with global warming). It’s time to bring the raincoat out of the wardrobe where it has been hiding for several months.
Better yet, up your image and buy one or two new ones. Besides providing warmth and protection from the cold and rain, the raincoat can make a fashion statement for the trendy man.
If you are looking for a raincoat that you can use for many functions and purposes, including business trips, then you need to avoid imitations.
Anoop Abdul, a dealer in men’s garments in Mombasa says the raincoat goes a long way in boosting the personal image of a man — if it is well selected."What’s more, even if its name suggests that it is a garment for the rain, a good quality raincoat can be worn to the office in extremely cold weather," says Abdul.
If you are creative, you can use a raincoat to enhance your elegance.
Abdul says a single-breasted raincoat of three quarters length is ideal for office wear. The trench coat is naturally sophisticated and the first choice if you want to achieve a formal look.
"If you are looking for a raincoat that you can use for many functions and purposes, including business trips, then you need to avoid imitations. Ask for quality labels," Abdul advises.
