Wet rainwear

Post by nylondk »

Are there others who love wet rainwear. I love bathing in my nylon rainwear and without any wonder, and feeling how it sticks to my body. The way it shines and feels is just lovely. This applies to both a walk in the shower or a trip to the beach

However much more recently I went out in a nylon Pakamac for the first time in many years and after only about half an hour the rain had soaked through it. However I rather liked the resulting wet clamminess of the nylon, and was glad I'd retained Pakamacs in both nylon and plastic.

I also like getting really soaked in my rainwear, wether nylon cagoule or long PVC mac. It is good to be out in the rain, the heavier the better. But is an extra thrill to jump in a river or pond, Getting drenched enhances the sensation against the skin. I know this is not to everyone's taste but I do enjoy it.

I like my nylon raincoats best in dry weather.
If the weather is cool and dry the best feeling is when the nylon raincoat is crispy and noisy. It turns me on....

Vespa drivers are special !
I know what I am talking about.
Adoring them for all of my life, because they used to have pretty girls on their backseats, sometimes with their raincoats on .
In your case, I would like to ask you where you started and what your final destination was, after 6 hours of driving in the pouring rain ?
Maybe "Guiness book" has got the answer ?

I didn't have a girl on the back seat but was actually visiting a girl, the fiance of a friend of mine, who was a lecturer at a college at the University. The journey took 6 hours because the top speed of my Vespa motor scooter was only 35 mph but of course I averaged a lot less and made several rest stops. The college at the University was an all-ladies college and as I'd been invited to dine with the Principal of the College, I wore a suit under my plastic mac (everything was more formal in those days)! Though my plastic mac kept most of the rain out I remember some got behind the buttoned-up collar of my plastic Pakamac, and coloured dye from my tie ran over the white collar of my shirt. In those days (1961) I wore shirts of the old-fashioned type that had separate collars attached to the collarless shirt by collar-studs so was able to change into a clean collar on arrival!
Unbelievable :roll:
Being invited in an all-ladies college could have changed my life dramatically,
but you had nothing better to do than to change your collar into a clean collar on arrival! What about the ladies ? :oops:
That`s why Vespa drivers are so very special :mrgreen:
By the way: My route navigator tells me that you drove about 125 Miles to Nottingham, all of the ladies were
waiting just for you, did you realize that :?

I've been contributing to this forum for a long time now and seen some pretty frank and embarrassing confessions over the years but admitting that you come from High Wycombe......

Thanks for taking my posting in the spirit in which was intended. I come from about halfway along the old 441 bus route. Saw plenty of cycle capes when people came out of the trading estate en masse. Golden age of the pakamac too.

I love wearing mine in the bath and shower as well and when outside when it rains. Would love to swim in it in the pool or sea but not brave enough.

The nylon feels so nice when wet against the skin.

Would you please tell me what it means to come from High Wycombe ?
Maybe I feel compelled to place another comment :?

Sorry, I`ve just realized your P.M. Thanks, will comment it little later :D
