What is the difference between a raincoat and a rain jacket?
The difference between a raincoat and a rain jacket is length. A rain jacket usually travels only to the waist and protects the upper body from inclement weather. Raincoats are longer, usually falling to the hips, thighs, calves or ankles to offer more coverage. On 1stDibs, find a range of rain jackets and raincoats.
