You can’t afford to be without a rain-coat, for nothing else can give you such perfect protection and comfort in wet weather. For appearance sake it must be dressy too, it must be well tailored and have style. It must be all-wool because no other cloth mixture will stand the test of rough weather like pure wool. Hard wear and bad weather will not make our rain-coats lose shape because the shape is built in not pressed in. We’ve a great variety of these Coats to show you and somewhere between SIO.OO and $25.00 We have a Rain-Coat we know you will like HolthoUse, Schulte £ Go. Good Clothes Sellers for Men and Boys.
