rain hat
Waterproof head covering
A rain hat is a hat designed to protect the head from rain, typically made of waterproof or water-resistant material.
Unlike umbrellas, rain hats keep hands free: She pulled on her rain hat before walking the dog.
The term covers everything from practical plastic bonnets to stylish waxed-cotton designs.
