and Wander return for the latest season with their 2.5L Hiker Rain Jacket which features a durable water repellent fabric & that signature “insta famous” design.
Every decent clothing brand has its own calling card. For example for C.P. Company it’s goggles in hoods & ‘watchviewer’ lenses. For Stone Island its sailing inspired hoods or subtle striping to the cuffs. For relatively new kids’ on the block, and Wander, it’s got to be them signature twin zip pockets & reflective detailing that has given the Tokyo brand its very own blueprint. Bridging the gap between contemporary urban-wear & gear you could wear up Mount Fiji, and Wander pioneered the whole “hiking club” thing years before we all had to wear masks and wait in-line outside the local Tesco to fight for toilet rolls. As those living in cities & towns took to the great outdoors as a place to escape lock-downs & vaccine conspiracies, brands like and Wander surfaced to a style driven, outdoors obsessed UK market to supply those who wanted technical garb you could also wear on the concrete clad streets of inner-cities as well as taking on the beautiful sights of Snowdon.
Spearheading the whole community hike concept, and Wander isn’t just your average “outdoors” brand. With its philosophy of “the pleasure of playing in the mountains”, and previous design experience with Issey Miyake from its founders Keita Ikeuchi and Mihoko Mori the brand is simply all about stylish & technical gear for the outdoors. If there’s only signature style you instantly associated with and Wander it’s got to be their 2.5L Hiker Rain Jacket which now gets a subtle update for the latest season.
Arriving in some updated colourways for the latest AW26 season, the 2.5L Hiker Rain Jacket features a techy ensemble of performance fabrics & water-repellancy. Highlights of the staple and Wander style includes a durable 70D & 160D nylon blend fabric with a 2.5 layer construction alongside a porous polyurethane coating. Added ventilation panels ensure increased breathability with a multitude of functional storage & zips. Partially reflective stitching adds a little ‘and Wander’ touch for increased visibility in darker light. Finished off with and Wander’s signature twin zips to the front alongside reflective and Wander branding to the left sleeve, the 2.5L Hiker Rain is the ultimate bit of performance outerwear.
