Miscellaneous: Rain is an important word in Nantes.
Nantes could definitely contests as one of France's rainiest place.
I remember the long long autumn and winter months when rain was falling on a pretty daily basis. If it does not rain in Nantes every day, it is a good thing. Otherwise, it is natural.
So, be aware that when you travel to Nantes between from October to March-April, you may have rainy days.
Good point is that it is never really cold there. Rare when days are under 5 degrees.

Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: I don't know if it is typical of Nantes, but I studied abroad there in the spring of 2001 & it rained a lot. We often times compared the weather to Seattle. Definitely don't go there without an umbrella. It may not be quite as bad during other times of the year, but I wouldn't consider going to Nantes without an umbrella.
