When it rains it POURS! I recall when first starting at UBC that it becomes quite the swamp anytime it rains! I was even on a forum where a girl posted this “I’m planning to get a pair this year, since i go to UBC and there are millions of puddles on the sidewalks when it rains. It’s just such pain in the but when my sneakers gets wet or the bottom of my pants are drenched.”
For this water logged issue I found 2 essential products to help cope!
1. Tretorn Rain Boots
“The Kelly is a classic and refined boot for your rainy day needs. 100% waterproof natural rubber. PVC free. Shiny finish. Microfleece lining and footbed. Tonal rubber outsole”
– these are comfortable and warm because of the fleece lining. They are only $80 as opposed to the $160 Hunter boots, and they are not chunky they are sleek and more fashionable than most rain boots out there!
2. Back Pack Cover
– backpack soaked = homework wet = University prof less than impressed!
– textbook wet, a waste of $150 b/c you cannot re-sell = angry student!
Solution the cheap and easy to use backpack cover that fits most bags!
$6-16 depending on size!
Just a couple products that get me through the pain of RAIN!
