I know the saying goes “April showers bring May flowers”, but March is pretty rainy and indicative of a florally lush spring, too. To that point, it’s important that you have the appropriate outerwear, so you’re not soaking through your denim jacket in an abrupt rainstorm, and you’re not sweating through your puffer coat on a surprise 72 degree day. Enter the mac jacket – waterproof, and tidy enough to wear over a suit.
A mac jacket is the perfect jacket for spring showers and sunny days alike.
