Climate change has brought about significant alterations in weather patterns, with many areas experiencing more unpredictable and severe weather conditions.

The rainy season in Mexico, as defined by the Mexican National Water Commission (CONAGUA), is typically observed from May to October. The southern and eastern regions of the country are particularly susceptible to flooding and intense rainfall. Urban areas like Mexico City also face significant rainfall challenges, leading to increased demand for practical and affordable rainwear for daily commuting and protection.
