Hi, my son has sensory issues and I'm yet to find a rain jacket or winter coat that doesn't make 'that scratchy sound'
He is a young teen, and needs a relatively plain navy or black jacket/coat.
Any ideas? I'm lost!
Thank you.
AIBU?
Sensory friendly rain jacket/ coat

Following, I cannot get my 14 year son with ADHD to try any kind of coat. I've bought all the suggestions on here over the years. My ASD older daughter has told me to give up and it's cruel to try and force him! He's planning to get through the winter by just wearing a hoody🙄

A softshell jacket is what you need I think, my daughter is the same (she wears a padded hiking jacket from decathlon as she also can't bear the feel of a proper waterproof). I have a trespass softshell.
You do sacrifice some waterproofing for the non-rustle, it's OK for a shower but won't withstand a downpour
