13 Chic Rain Jackets to Wear When It's Gross Outside

The North Face's new hooded rain jacket is made out of recycled material, so you can feel good about your choices while getting soaked by Mother Nature. 

Please don't mind me and my waterproof leopard raincoat that I will be wearing everyday rain or shine, thank you very much.  

Perfect for those frigid winter days that have somehow made it all the way through April, Universal Standard's Kanda puffer is waterproof (!) so you can wear it in the rain or snow without having to swap out your daily coat when you're in a hurry to get to work. 

Much like the rest of its outerwear, Canada Goose's rain jacket is an investment piece that will last for years, if not decades, thanks to its high-quality material and expertly-designed style.

Columbia's best-selling Arcadia waterproof rain jacket comes in lots of different colors and plenty of five star reviews on Amazon. As one reviewer noted, it's perfect for light to moderate showers and fits snugly. Make sure to order a size up if you're into layering. 

Suddenly, I'm not so upset about the rain when statement pieces like Coach's polyester coat exists...with a removable hood! 

Instead of dealing with a heavy rain coat that you'll have to stuff into a gym locker, throw on this cute waterproof windbreaker when you need to shield yourself from light showers. 

I took one glance at Everlane's anorak and suddenly I wish it was fall again? Wear this ultra cool lightweight, water-resistant jacket on rainy days to the office without feeling like your colleagues are staring at you. (Unlike when you wear those high-top rain boots.) 

Beat the blues in Stutterheim's unisex mid-length coat. The brand is known for its beautiful rain jackets with boxy fits. 

Throw on a t-shirt and leggings underneath Lululemon's oversized jacket, and you won't feel so bad about running errands in the rain. It surprisingly adjusts to your body shape with its cinched sleeves and waist, and if you're heading on a trip it folds into—wait for it—a fanny pack. 

It's called the "Perfect Rain Jacket" for a reason—J.Crew's best-selling coat is refreshingly simple, and comes in eight different colors. Shoppers can't stop talking about the lightweight and easy fit. 

The answer to your first question is no, you won't look like the little boy from It. If there were any hesitations about this raincoat's protective features, Herschel's parka is made to keep out the rain and wind with its special waterproof stretch fabric. 

The OG all-weather brand still has a special place in our hearts. If you aren't sick of a zipper yet, keep it minimal in Hunter's original lightweight rubber jacket with a drawstring hood and pockets for days.
