Nimbus York unisex raincoat

Product Overview

The Nimbus York unisex raincoat is a sophisticated blend of Scandinavian design tradition and modern technical functionality. Inspired by the sleek, minimalist aesthetics of the Nordic urban landscape, this raincoat is engineered to provide comprehensive weather protection without sacrificing a professional appearance. It serves as a natural addition to any corporate wardrobe, bridging the gap between high-fashion outerwear and practical workwear.

Key Features

• Fully Waterproof Construction: The combination of technical fabrics and welded seams ensures that water cannot penetrate the garment, keeping the wearer dry during persistent rainfall.
• Welded Seams: Unlike traditional stitched seams which can leak, these seams are fused together to create a permanent, watertight barrier.
• Functional Adjustable Hood: The hood can be tailored to fit securely, preventing it from blowing down in high winds and ensuring visibility is maintained.
• Secure Front Placket: Featuring a high-quality main zip and additional button closures, this double-layered front provides a secondary line of defence against wind and driving rain.
• Sleeve Straps and Pockets: Adjustable straps allow for a custom fit at the wrists to block drafts, while well-placed pockets offer secure storage for essential items.

Design & Performance

Constructed from a robust blend of 70% polyester and 30% polyurethane, this medium-weight raincoat is designed for durability and performance. The polyurethane coating provides the essential waterproof barrier, while the polyester base ensures the garment remains flexible and comfortable during movement. The unisex design is cut to offer a trend-forward silhouette that fits both men and women professionally, avoiding the bulk often associated with traditional heavy-duty rain gear.

Customisation: Print & Embroidery

The Nimbus York is compatible with both print and embroidery, allowing for versatile branding options. Embroidery is particularly effective for adding a prestigious, high-end finish to the garment, such as a company logo on the chest or a staff member's name. This method provides a durable and textured appearance that withstands the elements.

For organisations looking for larger, more vibrant displays, our technical printing processes are ideal. This is often preferred for bold branding on the back of the jacket to ensure maximum visibility. All customisation is carried out by our expert in-house team in Telford, who have been perfecting garment decoration since 1976.

Use Cases

This raincoat is perfectly suited for professionals who require a smart, weather-ready outer layer. It is an excellent choice for urban commuters, client-facing staff who work outdoors, or corporate teams attending outdoor events. The understated design ensures it looks as appropriate over a suit as it does over more casual work attire.

Practical Advice

The York raincoat is designed as a unisex item with a size range from XS to 4XL, making it suitable for outfitting entire teams. When selecting a size, consider the layers that will be worn underneath; for those wearing heavy knitwear or blazers, moving up one size may provide a more comfortable fit. The tagless design also ensures there is no irritation at the neck during long periods of wear.

Caring for your product

To maintain the integrity of the waterproof coating and ensure your custom branding remains in peak condition, we recommend a domestic wash at a maximum of 30°C on a normal process. Using higher temperatures may damage the polyurethane layer and the welded seams, compromising the jacket's waterproof capabilities.

Do not use bleach, as these harsh chemicals will break down the fabric fibres and cause discolouration. To dry the garment, we advise line drying only; do not tumble dry, as the intense heat can warp the technical materials and cause the print or embroidery to degrade prematurely.

This garment should not be ironed, as direct heat will melt the waterproof surface. Finally, avoid dry cleaning, as the chemicals used in the process are too aggressive for the specialised construction of this raincoat.
