(because i need one)
Mine is Spiewak. Unfortunately, I cannot find the one I have anywhere on their site or anyone elses. It's just a simple black rain jacket, with reinforced seams and a giant hood. It has a triple front closure, too - small zip, large zip, buttons.
I got it unused from someone going overseas, and let me tell you the thing's pretty great.
Unfortunately the hood is unusable as a hood. BUT, as I forgot to mention above, I do have a use for it. If it's raining hard, I can kind of tuck it around the back of my neck and draw it close, holding it in place with the helmet against the very back of my head. This way, it keeps anything from pooling and running down around the head hole.
