7 Beautiful Water Repellent Jackets for Rainy Days, Men & Women

Time for a new jacket selection! Today we have picked 7 jackets that you can wear in different weather conditions, with the main criteria being that they are water-repellent so that they can be worn when it rains, too.

In the past, we have compiled several selections of jackets that you can wear when it rains, but they were all waterproof options.

So why focusing on water-resistant and water-repellent ones, then? Well, because, unless a jacket is up there in price and made of breathable and waterproof membranes such as Gore-Tex, they are typically not breathable at all.

Take, for example, rain jackets.

These are great for protecting against the rain, but what if you don’t want to purchase several jackets for different purposes? Especially if you are mostly outdoors for sports and other activities, which turns rain jackets into a hindrance due to overheating.

This brings us to versatile, water-repellent jackets, which come in many designs and varieties that you can wear for jogging, walking, layering and practically any other activity.

With that being said, let’s jump right into today’s selection!

Berghaus Men’s Cornice Interactive Waterpoof Jacket – Review

Berghaus Men's Cornice Interactive Waterpoof Jacket - Review

For today’s review we have chosen a jacket designed for hikers and climbers. Designed by Berghaus, Cornice III is a high-performance jacket that adapts to your needs, activity and the weather outdoors.

Berghaus, much like other quality brands, began by avid lovers of nature and sports who were unsatisfied with what the market at the time had to offer. It all began in 1966 with outdoor gear, then rucksacks and today they have a wide range of products that are made of high quality and perform flawlessly each and every time.

We chose Cornice III for men who enjoy climbing mountains, hiking out in the woods and just simply love being outdoors. Let’s take a look at why this jacket made it into our review!
