Some rainwear is a term used to describe clothing items that are designed to protect the wearer from rain and other wet weather conditions. Two common examples of some rainwear are MACS and ponchos. MACS are four-letter garments that are typically made of waterproof material and feature a hood and buttons or a zipper for closure. Ponchos are seven-letter garments that are usually made of a lightweight, waterproof material and feature an open front with a hood.
