This ethical vegan rain gear is perfect for all kinds of weather in 2023 – but especially the wet kind!

By Noa Ben Moshe

Yep, I know: April showers bring May flowers, right? But it seems that as lovely as the rain may be, sometimes it gets on my nerves. And on my outfits! So a good raincoat is a must. But what makes for a great raincoat?

If you ask me, it should be: timelessly stylish, lightweight enough to stuff into your handbag if you’re not wearing it, and of course, vegan friendly.

But it’s not only our clothing that can get soaked, of course – it’s our feet! So a good pair of waterproof, vegan-friendly boots is also a must-have spring wardrobe item.

I’ve searched around for some of the best ethical vegan rain gear for the season. I mean, stuff I consider to be rainy day fashion essentials, that will make you truly shine, even when it’s gloomy outside!
