    Plus size all-weather gear?

    Friend has asked me where to order. Of course I'm going to tell her Get Thee To TE but has anybody got a good recommendation for something comfy in the pants line? (welp, and upon perusing... TE doesn't have rain pants in plus sizes. Other options?)

    Not rain pants, but I do have a pair of Shebeest tights in size XL, only a couple of wearings. Comfy, but now WAY too big! They long to be adopted by someone who would love them to pieces or to too-big, whichever comes first.

    Could your friend use them?

    I also have a PI screaming yellow wind breaker type jacket in men's XL that could use a loving home too, if that's something she might like?

    I'm beginning to think there is no such thing as comfy plus sized rain pants. Personally, I wear the pants from a waterproof track suit with a band to bind the flapping leg on the drivetrain side. It's got to be prettty bad before I will wear them, though...

    Your friend might check out REI.com, which I've just noticed is offering some women's "extended size" gear, or See Jane Run. Not sure what she'll find, but it's worth a look. These are my standard "go-to" sites when TE doesn't have what I'm looking for. STP, too.
