The Raincoat Bag!

Love the idea of this Telescopic Raincoat, so much so that if it ever sees the light of day, I’m buying a pack of six for my family! A strategically located drawstring near the hood folds the entire raincoat inside out to a dry bag, making it easy to carry indoors. Unfurling the coat simply requires you to shake it out. Simple and awesome!

Telescopic Raincoat is a 2011 red dot design concept winner.
