I have never had a problem in rain, snow, etc. with my handbags. I don't let my bags get soaked (I'm actually pretty particular about my bags) but I've never given this a lot of thought. And, no offense to anyone who has one but the bag raincoats look a little silly to me. On a rainy day,I just choose a bag that I don't have to worry about.

Oh yes, ditto! It's a very handy thing to have, but it's like those people who wear galoshes. Looks a bit silly.
Just wear shoes that can take the weather and switch when you get indoors. And carry a Le Pliage in your expensive handbag, and when the going gets too tough, slip your treasure in the can-and-will-take-any-weather-with-ease Longchamp. :smile1:
 
I always carry an Envirosax bag in my handbag. When it rains, I put my handbag in the Envirosax. It's also handy when traveling on an airplane. I will not let my handbag touch a floor (which is so grubby on a plane).

I don't know what I'd do without galoshes but maybe I'm just crazy. As for bag, my collection can weather most conditions but I do use a canvas bag for more delicate leathers.

Those are the smartest galoshes I've ever seen in my life!

Men here wear orange galoshes. Bright orange. Let's take a moment to think about that. :weird:

I was going to ask if you lived in Stockholm before seeing that you're in Finland, must be a Nordic thing! When I was in Stockholm for a couple weeks last winter I kept seeing those orange galoshes everywhere. Weird because home in Oslo I've never seen them, I guess Norway isn't as "on trend" or whatever as our neighbors... Probably just as well! :p
 
I dont own any bags like these but I am willing to read reviews and see if it is worth it! I mean, I never go out in the rain with one of my expensive bags so maybe this is the ticket.
