South Gate Umbrella

Raincoats vs. South Gate umbrellas

It's time to settle the debate of raincoats vs. South Gate umbrellas. Raincoats offer you protection from the South Gate rain by forming a protective layer around your clothing. With raincoats your face is generally exposed and they can be cumbersome to carry around on a wet and windy day. In contrast, South Gate umbrellas create a shield that you hold above your head to protect yourself from the rain. With South Gate umbrellas, your entire body is exposed to the rain, but they are often easier to carry around than raincoats. Overall, raincoats and California umbrellas both offer good forms of rain protection, but you should decide which one to use based on the weather conditions. For highly windy weather, we recommend raincoats. And, for normal rain showers, we recommend South Gate umbrellas. So, it appears that the great rain debate has not been settled yet!
