No waterproof membranes here: the Carhartt Surrey Coat is an old-fashioned, ultra-dry rain slicker made of durable and waterproof PVC fabric, lined with polyester to keep you totally dry even in the hardest downpours you've ever seen. From the oil rig to the fishing boat to the ranch, the Surrey's electronically welded seams keep moisture out, and the double-front storm placket and internal neoprene cuffs make dead sure that no water seeps in. The hood's detachable, so you can leave it behind if the storm's fizzling out, and the elbows are reinforced so there's no chance of wearing them out or putting a hole in your coat.
