A place to share practical, durable and quality made products that are made to last, with an emphasis on upcycled and sustainable products!
Guidelines:
Things that are well-made and durable (even if they won't last a lifetime) are A-Okay!
Unlike that other BIFL place, Home-made and DIY items are encouraged here, as long as some form of instruction is included in the body of the post.
Videos links are not allowed as post titles, but you may use them in a text post.
A limited amount of self-promotion is accepted, IF the item you are selling aligns with this criteria:
- The item must be made with sustainable or recycled materials.
- If electronic in some way, the item must be open-source.
- The item must be user-serviceable (if applicable).
- You cannot be a large corporation.
- The post must be clearly marked with a [Self Promotion] tag in your title.

It might not be exactly rain proof but I use cross-country ski pants personally, you can get them with full zippers up the side. The fronts are usually very water resistant with vents in the knees and usually breathable fabric on the back, that way you don't get swampy underneath (previously had full water proof rubber ones a friend gave away to me very unpleasant to use). Long as your bike has full fenders then the backs being breathable become a big plus. I just keep a pair in the bottom of my bag with me and a rain poncho and Im ready for whenever it decides to pour.
