Stockholm Raincoat, Navy

Modeled after the fisherman's raincoat that first inspired Alexander Stutterheim to start making high-quality rainwear in the first place, the Stockholm is as close to perfect as something you wear when it's crappy outside can get. The fabric itself is a heavyweight 52/48 cotton-poly blend, with a rubberized PVC coating that makes the fabric completely waterproof. That material then gets skillfully hand-sewn into this coat, complete with double-welded seams, metal snap closures, and cotton drawstrings. Honestly, you'll look forward to the rain once you have one of these.

Not long ago, Alexander Stutterheim found his grandfather's old fisherman's raincoat in a family barn on the Swedish island of Arholma. He recreated the timeless piece using high-quality rubberized cotton, and began selling them in high-end shops like Barney's only a year later. The rest, as they say, is history — and now we've got our hands on some of the best rainwear money can buy.
