The past couple of weeks have been wet, wet, wet. I guess that shouldn't come as a surprise - it's just Raincouver living up to its name, after all. Regardless, I'm glad my new Trout coat came in time for the downpour. In addition to being completely waterproof and functional (look at that nice big hood!), each detail has been well thought out... right down to the contrasting seam tape that also serves as a waterproof seal. It's also substantially more stylish than the typical raincoat and happens to be my current favourite colour: a bright, happy yellow. The piece definitely makes being in the gloom infinitely more bearable.. and that fact alone makes it a worthwhile investment.photos by Paul Milaire Wearing: Trout raincoat (c/o, available online and at Holt Renfrew)
