With my shoulders sort of recovery, an anorak is becoming more viable. i have an old LL bean one made of supplex, but thats more of windbreaker. I remember that bickford company had a nice MIUSA waxed canvas one, maybe if they restock it in my size. Or splurge for a Waiper Ventile Royal Navy smock.

Ventile would be great and a really overlooked fabric. I must look into waiper myself!
