There have been times when I was able to protect myself with waterproof outerwear, but my bag was left soaking wet.

The bag that she is carrying is the eVent bag. Using the same waterproof material as the anorak, it is perfect to be your rainy day bag. Plus, like the other Bbb pouches, it can be opened in one swift single-hand motion (after some practice). Meaning, you can take things out with an umbrella in your other hand. Now you’re freed from that difficulty of balancing an umbrella on your shoulder so that you can use both hands to rummage through your bag to find what you need right when it’s pouring out.
