The main prob imho is the big majority of men doesn't care much for fashion, the buy what fashion industry offers "for men", what's available in local stores, without thinking much about it, and/or they avoid everything which might look a little bit "female" style bc a man has to be the strong one whilst a woman can be weak and vulnerable and so she has to get protection e.g. with a proper raincoat. These old stereotypes are so f...ing annoying! I can't count all the endless hours I spent looking for special pieces of rain and puffer fashion for men.JoPVC wrote: August 26th, 2024, 7:30 am
I'm a man, too, I like to wear a pvc raincoat.
It's usually women who wear this style of raincoat, it's a shame.
I would like everyone to wear these pretty raincoats regardless of gender.
Unisexism of raincoats!![]()
A little example from the puffer coat world: Look at the men's section for an extralong shiny puffer coat styled like the Moncler Hudson for the ladies. You won't find one, perhaps only a strange Chinese one with strange measurement/sizing where the sleeves often are too short. I solved that problem with a custom-tailored coat in a very similar style, I ordered an extra length going well with my size. Without that custom tailoring that dream wouldn't have become true.
People - male people - should communicate a strong demand for such more fashionable pieces. If only 1 guy out of a million does so, nothing will change.
Luckily there are some great unisex items in the raincoat world like the Stutterheim Stockholms or the Farmerrain Retros.
