Well, presumably you'd be wearing it with a rain jacket that you already own... Otherwise there really would be no point to it. But that's just another piece of kit to buy, pack and worry about.

Boy, you rabble are tough! Guess we'll have to wait for kilted trench warfare again to sell any of these puppies.

I'm still lookin' at them, IF they'll make them for my belly. I'm with CDNsushi...figure I'd already have some sort of jacket on...this would be tucked away somewhere...if the rain got bad could just step into it.

I'm thinking more of unexpected rain...cape if its raining to begin with for sure...just seemed like a novel idea for kilties too. Guess it'll stay with normie hikers and river runners.

Sorry brother Ron - the mens model looks like a Hefty 30 gallon yard waste bag. Too bulky and too long. You'd never be able to get out of a trench in that thing.

My thought also.

That's my thought, too. I have a leather duster and a London Fog trench coat. Both work well, and have lasted me 10 years each. Those look cool, but for the price, I'll stick with my trench.

Ron I dont know if you know about this outfit, and I dont know if they make it in your size but its worth a look. WWI kilt aprons

Ron, you got me on the kiltliners, but lost me on this. But, you still have value as a human being.

The best part is that while I actually remember that episode, the person that plays Murdock is the voice of Mung Daal, a cartoon character that normally wears kilts on "Chowder"
