Rukka CH with a nice long women's raincoat

Ever wondered why the rukka.ch site (the Swiss daughter) has different jackets than the Finnish main brand? Just read their history on their site, it was founded by Swiss people who started to design their own collection under the Rukka brand name (but they feature a different logo).

Well, looking at their new collection I found three nice new things along their women's coats and jackets. Three raincoats in the modern PU coating in different lengths. One in hip length, one butt length and a new one, the "Wolkenbruch" (Wolkenbruch is German for cloudburst/heaviest possible downpour) coat, in knee length or even more (depending on the body size of the lady inside). For men only one jacket about half butt length I'd say (in Germany there are tons of PU coated coats from brands like Schmuddelwedda available in that size). But that long "Wolkenbruch" coat is really nice and amazing to see such length making its way back to (unfortunately only women's) fashion.

What makes it disappointing to me is that again nobody cares about men's legs - aren't we worth to keep our legs better protected as well (without the need for special rainpants)? A long coat is great when you have to go to work on rainy days, just wear a nice long coat and after arriving at work you just take off the coat.

Additionaly I'd like to mention that rukka.ch only ships to Swiss adresses... the second disappointing thing. Luckily I have some coats from Farmerrain and Stutterheim (and even a very long SBR mac, and some capes). 😋

i wish they went back to the classic pvc material or at least find a way to replicate its texture where it can still follow the regulations.

Tretorn is another brand to look out for?

The Swiss "Rukka" company is only allowed to use the brand name but has nothing to do with the Finnish motherhouse. Yes the opal Stuttis and Farmerrains are closest to the classic 1970s Rukkas today but their fabric is thicker (which doesn't mean to be a bad thing, normally thicker = more durable).

They only feat. modern PU coated jackets up to parka length, nothing really exciting.
