The passage out of summer is one full of meteorological obstacles. And, while any old waterproof jacket can keep you dry to a certain extent, when the rain is really pouring and the winds are up, your comfort lies in the hands of the fine details. We’re talking elasticated storm cuffs, taped zips, heat-trapping toggles, and the like.
Whether you're looking ahead to winter too or just on the search for a waterproof layer to see you through the fall transition, we've rounded up the coats for you from Slam Jam. Ranging from technical expertise from and Wander, Stone Island Shadow Project, Snow Peak, and more, these are the best waterproof jackets for men this season.
