I wanted to write a little bit of a rant here because I get so upset whenever I need a specialty item quickly like a rain coat but nobody carries one big enough. Since I live on the Oregon coast, I need a good rain jacket that I switch out every few years because it rains a lot here.
To get a big and tall rain jacket I have to turn to a website like Amazon, which isn’t always that fast at getting items to me. If I were able to get away with what most do like running to a store like Walmart and finding what I need, that would be amazing.
There are ways to get priority shipping, like if you look at the listing here on Amazon (this link opens in a new tab), it has Prime shipping yet it still will be here in 3 to 4 days from what it’s telling me.
So I just don’t think it’s very fair that not everyone has access to the same stuff, because I know for a fact there are others in my area that have the same needs as I do with how tall I am and such so it makes no sense for us not to be catered to.
I also want to mention that there are mostly rain resistant jackets for men and women, so if that’s the case it eventually gets to a point where the protection wears off and you get wet. A rain proof jacket is what you want to buy for long walks in the rain. I wasn’t aware of this until I lived near the ocean and had it rain on me for several weeks in a row.
Do you have anything like this happening where you’re located? My city is fairly small, so it’s to be expected, but I also had issues in a much bigger place with tons of stores because most stores just don’t cater to people with an above average height.
