Rains is an outerwear lifestyle brand that reimagines the traditional rubber raincoat with a neo-Scandinavian aesthetic. With their signature fabric identity and dedication to conceptual-meets-functional design, Rains waterproof bags have become the go-to for those seeking modern and unique rainwear options.
Rains was founded by Danish designers Daniel Brix and Philip Lotko who met while studying at Denmark’s TEKO Design School. The two creatives grew up in cities renowned for their textiles, so they bonded over their desire to create a label that was firmly rooted in Danish tradition. In “focusing on and elevating functional design,” they co-founded Rains in 2012.
But Rains is more than just a fashion brand – it’s a responsible and sustainable one, too.
Rains tote bags and rucksacks are made from deadstock wherever possible, and their offerings are amalgams of different samples of waste material. Like the revolving nature of the weather, condensation, and rainfall, be assured that when you buy a Rains crossbody bag or other pieces, you’ll be able to take part in its closed-loop cycle program.
Novel and waterproof bags are a part of the Rains essentials, a must-have for those with a refined taste in fashion. Designed to protect your everyday essentials from the elements, these bags are crafted using the highest-quality materials and imbued with a unique Scandinavian aesthetic that exudes a sleek elegance.
“Rains is a brand for the people,” Lotko says, and they aim to have something for everyone, whether that’s patent and transparent pieces, muted tones, or bright flashy colours.
Since their first design (a contemporary reinterpretation of the rubber raincoat), they’ve incorporated their signature waterproof fabric into all their Rains bags, which highlight a unisex, neo-Scandinavian aesthetic.
Rains has amassed a cult-like following because of this endlessly wearable, yet very fashion-forward image. Get waterproof bags from Rains at Urban Traveller & Co.
