Rainy day
Raincoats, shells, parkas, wool coats and boots for wet streets and cold days.
Dressing for a rainy day means choosing weather proof layers that protect against wet streets while keeping a clean silhouette. Heavy wool coats, down parkas, and treated cotton shells keep cold water out without sacrificing structure. Navy, blue and black lead the wall, and dark cloth hides splashes from wet streets.
The raincoat goes back to the eighteen twenties, when Charles Macintosh patented a rubberised waterproof cloth in Glasgow. Baracuta made its Harrington jacket in Manchester in the thirties for golfers caught in the rain, and lined it in Fraser tartan. Canada Goose, founded in Toronto, makes down parkas for deep cold, and Guidi makes vegetable tanned horse leather boots in Tuscany.
Pair tailored wool trousers with heavy ankle boots and an oversized shell to stay dry through afternoon downpours. WDLT117 in Toronto carries coats and Guidi boots, Due West adds Canada Goose, Moose Knuckles and Baracuta, and Utopia adds Moncler and Supreme.
More in the same spirit
