The rain boots we are shopping for the wet weather

If you are one of the 12 people left behind on the east coast of Australia instead of thriving in the European heat this winter, my condolences to you, and also to myself for I am one of the twelve. It is not only cold, but here in Sydney it is relentlessly rainy. One day of sunshine equals a full week of rain at the moment, and it's safe to say that we are deathly sick of the damp. In the unenthusiastic spirit of this, we are finally succumbing to the appropriate attire, and working rain boots into our wardrobe out of necessity.

From the timeless Hunter wellingtons to Bottega Veneta's modern interpretation of gum boots with their Puddle Boots, we're rounding up the styles we're currently coveting. There are giant Balenciaga track sole boots for those ready to stomp through the rain, and soft-soled Prada ankle boots made entirely of rubber. Off-White even has a pair to tell you exactly when to wear them, with "FOR RAINY DAYS" printed along the side.

If, like us, you are finally ready to equip yourself for the rain, these are our favourite rain boots, below.
