Wallets and money belts Rite in the Rain

Rite in the Rain is an iconic American brand with roots dating back to the early 1900s, born from a simple but powerful idea: create paper that can withstand the harshest weather conditions. The concept originated in the rainy Pacific Northwest, where loggers needed a reliable way to record data despite constant rain. In 1916, entrepreneur Jerry Darling and printer Herbert Buffington developed the first truly weatherproof paper—revolutionizing note-taking in the field.

What began as a manual process of hand-dipping sheets into waterproof solutions evolved into a series of unique innovations, making Rite in the Rain a pioneer—and for a time, the only manufacturer—of its kind. Over the decades, the product range expanded to support foresters, engineers, military personnel, and outdoor professionals working in demanding environments.

Today, Rite in the Rain stands for durability and reliability in the field. Its all-weather products are trusted worldwide by armed forces, rescue teams, scientists, and outdoor enthusiasts alike. With an environmentally responsible production process and over a century of expertise, the brand continues to deliver dependable solutions that perform in rain, mud, sweat, and extreme conditions—staying true to its mission: to perform where ordinary materials fail.
