i think it depends on your wardrobe. if you tend to wear blue jeans i think the bronze one, otherwise the navy coat.



the navy one looks so good tho. where is it from?

personally i feel like rain spots when wearing something in the rain seems kinda natural. i think it would look pretty awesome with some faded jeans

Oops, id go bronze, especially because of the trousers you tend to wear. Buying womens small/medium is smart as the mens are a fair bit bigger in the shoulders.

Bronze or navy? Ventile cotton raincoat. Worried bronze is more likely to show rain spots.

I have a Ventile jacket in a similar color and it doesn't darken when it gets wet.

my favorite jacket, sleeves are long, NN shortened his, i wear with the stacking. Avoid Glass Ice iteration as its very thin but some ppl found it to be not bad for price (don't buy full price retail).

Sleeves are really long and no elastic cuff means they often fall down on your hands. Nice jacket though.

I have long arms, and the sleeves on stooges are even long on me. I think it adds to the overall look, and the heavy calf iteration I have makes me feel so good when i wear it. 10/10 would recommend.
