raincoated

Clad in waterproofs

Raincoated describes someone wearing a raincoat, the waterproof or water-resistant outer garment designed to keep the wearer dry.

The term functions as a participial adjective, typically appearing before a noun: a raincoated figure hurried past the window.

It evokes imagery of someone prepared for or caught in wet weather, often suggesting anonymity or a certain urban dreariness in literary contexts.
