Climate rain gear in Staten Island is at Quazi Supply, 519 Port Richmond Avenue, 10302. We stock the Climate two-piece rain suit — yellow and black, three sizes — on the wall behind the counter. Open 11 to 8, seven days. When it rains in Staten Island the phone starts ringing at 9 AM and we sell out by lunch on a bad week. We restock weekly.
Honest pitch: Climate makes rain gear that keeps the rain out. That's the entire job and the brand does it. The two-piece suit is a hooded jacket with a snap front and a drawstring waist, paired with the matching pant in the same waterproof material. PVC-coated polyester, fully sealed seams, real waterproof rating (not 'water-resistant'), and a price point under $35 for the suit. It's the disposable-feeling option in our shop and we mean that as a compliment — buy three, keep one in the truck, one at home, one at the foreman's office.
The yellow Climate suit is the hi-vis-adjacent variant. Not ANSI-rated for traffic work (if you need that, the Norti hi-vis raingear is the answer) — but visible enough on a residential or commercial site that you're not invisible to a backing-up truck. The black is the one most contractors prefer for general use because it doesn't show mud the same way.
Sizing on the Climate suit is M, L, XL — three sizes covers most of the bell curve. The cut is roomy by design so you can wear the suit over a sweatshirt and a regular pant. M fits most adult sizes 32-36 waist; L covers 38-42; XL covers 44-48. If you're outside that range, ask about the alternate brands (Helly Hansen Mandal, Tingley Magnaprene, Carhartt Surrey) — we stock all of them in some quantity.
What it doesn't do: Climate is not a heavy-duty rain gear for industrial chemical exposure or sustained heavy-rain commercial fishing work. For that you want a Helly Hansen Impertech or a Tingley industrial-rated suit and we'll point you there. Climate is the everyday rain answer for everyday trades who get caught in it three times a year and don't want to spend $150 on a HH suit they'll wear five times.
Fit reality: the suit cuts roomy and the hood is sized to fit over a hard hat (yes, we tested it). The drawstring waist on the pant is the only sizing adjustment — pull it tight, the pant stays where you put it. The jacket sleeve has a Velcro cuff to seal at the wrist over a glove. Snap front on the jacket is faster than a zipper to get on and off when you're standing in a downpour.
Trades that reach for Climate: residential and commercial GCs, framers and roofers caught in the rain three times a season, painters working exterior who can't pack up an entire setup over a passing shower, plumbers and HVAC techs doing service calls in the rain, parking lot security and event security at outdoor events, and homeowners doing weekend work who don't want to ruin their good clothes.
Pricing is part of the appeal. The full suit (jacket + pant) runs $25-$35. Single jacket or single pant in the $15-$20 range. For a foreman buying eight suits to keep at a trailer, that's $200-$280 — manageable expense category, real liability mitigator.
Fleet pricing on Climate gets meaningful in case quantities. Volume tier on five-plus suits brings the per-suit cost down and net-30 terms apply. We'll deliver to the jobsite the morning the front comes through if you order the day before.
Walk in or call. 519 Port Richmond Ave. If the forecast is bad and you don't have rain gear in the truck, the answer is to walk in by 4 PM today, not 7 AM tomorrow when it's already coming down.
