Some people cycle in the rain, others just get wet
Style Selection #21 | Compiled by Fiona Mandos
If we could we would get rid of autumn. Or at least of its rain and cold. You don’t want to miss the wonderful feeling of crackling leaves, coloured sceneries, a healthy red nose and the moment you hold your well deserved coffee in your cold hands — so here is our selection of waterproof / water resistant jackets.
