Rain pants

Rain pants, also called rain trousers, are waterproof or water-resistant pants worn to protect the body from rain. Rain pants may be combined with a rain jacket to make a rain suit. Rain gaiters may also be used for further protection.^[1]

While rain pants can be made of plastic or coated nylon,^[2] modern waterproof materials are commonly used, including waterproof-breathable fabric such as Gore-Tex.^[3]
