'The Queen also wears them. And I suspect Jackie O and Little and Big Edie probably had one or two of their own'
The writer in her rain bonnet. Photo: Courtesy of the author If you live in New York, you may recall that about two weeks ago, on the eve of summer’s official start, it rained for several days straight. On the first rainy day, I forgot my umbrella. On the second, I remembered my umbrella and my too-heavy raincoat, and subsequently spent a lot of the day sweating in the high humidity.
Whether or not you agree on their aesthetic appeal, there’s no disagreeing that rain bonnets are extremely practical. They’re lightweight, can be bunched up to fit inside any purse or tote, and, because they’re reusable, are one of the few things that I don’t revile for being plastic. Bonnets are especially ideal for days like the third one in my recent very rainy week, when the forecast predicts a chance of downpours, and you want protection on hand but don’t want to lug around an umbrella.
Putting one on is also as easy than opening an umbrella — just place it on your head and tie the straps beneath your chin. I like that the SelfTek bonnet is roomy enough that it doesn’t feel like its pressing down on my hair, the way a more fitted rain hat or baseball cap would. Plus, it has a visor-like brim, a design detail that glasses-wearers like myself can appreciate, because it minimizes the number of raindrops that land on your lenses.
