The Gentleman's Raincoat
-
The Ultimate Fashion Raincoat
- Non-Technical Looking - Not shiny or hard shell
- Waterproof and Windproof
- Unlike other raincoats, it's comfortable and very breathable
- Lots of thoughtful details (Cashmere trimmings, water tunnel, storm flap, hood)
This is the coat for James Bond and other aspiring secret agents.
It doesn't look like a raincoat - the surface is non shiny, non reflective and looks just like another stylish, well cut fashion wool coat. You can wear this to a fashion event and nobody would notice it's a raincoat, and receive compliments on how well cut it is, and how tailored the shoulders are.
However, hidden underneath the fashion styling is an ultra-functional raincoat that can handle the roughest wind and water that the Norwegian winters can throw at it.
Built from high-tech fabric from Japan, it has a beautiful and highly desirable herringbone pattern on the surface, but is also fully waterproof and windproof. It has carefully crafted water tunnels to keep the water out, and is designed to be breathable and comfortable so you don't overheat. When times get tough you can attach a hood to the raincoat, or remove it when you want to disguise the rain features. It's also relatively lightweight and doesn't have that heavy feel of other raincoats, so it's easy to carry around with you and pack away when you don't need it.
It's completely over-designed with everything you can ask for in a raincoat, while not being a raincoat at the same time.

NOTES & RECOMMENDATIONS
- This is a textured jacket - you can see the herringbone patterns (approx 1cm per column) from 1-2 metres away.
- Fit is tailored, but still comfortably large. Go with your standard size, or size down for a tighter fit.
