The Brands Reinventing Rainwear
When we think about rainwear, we see chunky boots, rubberised fabrics, that old coat that kept ten of your cousins dry before it got handed down to you. But are raincoats the new icons of Scandi style? We certainly think so.
From coats and macs to bags and boots, rainwear has been around for hundreds of years. We've spent centuries running from the weather, so it's not surprising that practicality has always been at the forefront of rainwear design. But should function be an alternative to fashion? We think they go hand-in-hand, and we work with a few brands that champion this ideology.
1. Rains - The Powerhouse Driving Contemporary Rainwear Design
Rains' contemporary jackets, bags and accessories are both stylish and durable. They challenge traditional perceptions of rainwear and believe functionality need not come at the cost of design. Their lightweight fabrics are completely waterproof and are sumptuously smooth to the touch. With ultrasonically welded seams, minimalist style and gender-neutral shapes, they're the most innovative, urban garments around.
2. Lefrik - Leaders in Eco-Friendly Fabric
Lefrik bags are both sustainable and sturdy, so they're the perfect brand for the earth-conscious explorer! They take plastic water bottles and weave them into a high-quality, waterproof fabric. Not only are their products 100% recycled, but they're also PETA approved and Vegan. Lefrik supports the eco-conscious lifestyle. Vibrant colours, minimal form, sustainability and durability- what more could we want?
3. Blundstone - Creators of the Toughest Boots Around
Blundstone has been redesigning the world of no-nonsense footwear for 150 years. Crafted from naturally water-resistant leather that's as tough as, well, old boots, they're perfect for hiking or a daily commute. They may get scuffed along the way, but your Blundstones will be with you for every step of the journey.
4. Roka London - For Sustainable, Weatherproof Style
Roka keeps things simple. Their sleek, iconic designs are instantly recognisable. But, these good looks don't cost the earth. Their super-strong fabric is made from recycled single-use plastic that's both weather and water-resistant. Scandi style that's guilt-free and made to last!
