>econd part of this that he left out, of course, is being a towel and a change of clothes for once you reach your destination
Nah, didn't leave that out, didn't think about it lol. When I'm out, I just wear my clothes wet until they're dry again. But yeah, if you need to look presentable, a change of clothes makes sense.

>waxed stuff is expensive and heavy.
Yeah, it's heavy. Expensive not so much. I overspent on my oilskin (ankle length duster for riding my dirtbike in winter - was 120€ iirc), but cheap, normal length jackets can be had for around 50€ if you're fine with some small brand instead of muhBarbours. But as I said, if you're riding a bike without a motor, you'll sweat like hell in there. Or in any other waterproof clothing, for that matter.
>where do I even buy wax
Any store catering to motorbikers, (horse) riders, or selling proper shoes. Or Amazon. You'll want leather grease with some wax in it, preferably without solvents. Put the gloves in the sun or on the heater, wax them, let the wax dry, and rub off the excess with a cloth. That'll keep you dry in a thunderstorm as long as the seams aren't damaged.
