Best waterproof overtrousers to keep you dry on outdoor excursions

There’s quite simply nothing worse than being caught out while on a lovely, long and meandering walk in the countryside. The journey begins gloriously sunny, but before long you find yourself sprinting for shelter under the nearest collection of trees due to an unexpected opening of the heavens.

While we’d love to romanticise the experience and implore our readers to enjoy a dance in the rain, we consider ourselves to be realists here at ES Best. We’re certainly not going to advise you to engage in activities which could leave you chilled to the bone with a rotten cold and mind-numbing headache.
