What are raincoats made of?
1 Answer
What raincoats are made of varies. Inexpensive raincoats are often made of PVC, a plastic-like material that repels water. These coats usually have lightweight fabric linings on their interiors. Other materials commonly used to construct raincoats include coated nylon and polyester. You will also frequently find raincoats crafted out of Gore-Tex, a proprietary fabric that is both waterproof and breathable. On 1stDibs, explore a large collection of coats.
