Norwegian Rain Spring/Summer 2014

With summers in the Netherlands being very unpredictable (although we can’t complain now) it’s wise to have good rainwear all year around and our favourite Norwegian Rain succeeds once more in delivering a very impressive collection. The look-book for the upcoming Spring/Summer 2014 collection, again, is a lovely one. Shot by regular Norwegian Rain collaborator Bent René Synnevåg and styled by Emely Catherina Skjelbred Murray it perfectly resonate the eye for detail, the amazing fabrics and beautiful colour palette.

Each Norwegian Rain garment consists of three layers; a highly water- repellent outer shell. A high tech waterproof and breathable membrane laminated to the inside of the garment. The third layer is the satin lining. This keeps the technical and the high-performance aspects hidden. A heat-sealing film is applied to each seam to eliminate water seeping through the perforations caused by the sewing process. Additionally each garment has a basic, yet functional construction that increases ventilation whilst keeping water out. The garments are available in 8 different colours.
