Short-sleeve rain coats cause wonder

HAVANA, Cuba - June 6 (Shelyn Rojas / www.cubanet.org) - In the Havana
neighborhood of Lawton the hard currency store La Cima recently put on
sale short-sleeve rain coats causing wonder among the locals who say
they have never seen such a thing.

"What happens to the arms," they ask.

The coats, made in Vietnam, sell for $2.40 and come in several colors
and sizes.

They are made from a fairly heavy grade of nylon.
