Your Winter Must-have in London's Weather - ororo’s First Rain trench

The winter days in London are characterized by cold and often rainy weather. With average highs between December and February hovering around 48°F (9°C) and lows dipping to 41°F (5°C), the damp cold can feel particularly penetrating.

One major headache London’s weather may bring is its unpredictability. In just one day, you may experience warm sunshine, rain, cold wind, and even snow. Many of us know the frustration of commuting to work or enjoying a stroll around the city only to be caught by surprise rain when we forget our umbrellas.

That’s why it's crucial to wear the right clothes to stay warm and dry, ensuring you can enjoy your winter in London. You’ve likely heard the advice to wear several layers so you can adapt to the changing weather. This is sound advice for London’s climate. The ideal layering approach includes a soft and breathable base layer, an insulated mid-layer for warmth, and a waterproof and windproof coat to shield against wind and light rain. The coat, as the final and ultimate layer, not only helps combat the elements but also plays a significant role in defining your outfit style. In London, many opt for stylish and well-designed raincoats that serve as both fashion statements and functional items.

What Makes a Good Rain Trench?

Imagine walking through the bustling streets of London, being buffeted by cold winds and sudden downpours. A good rain trench can be your best ally in such scenarios, ensuring that you're comfortable, dry, and stylish no matter the weather. Here's why windproof, waterproof, and warm features in your trench coat are essential, especially in London's winter.

A windproof coat is indispensable as it prevents those chilling breezes from piercing through your clothes. Imagine running errands or waiting for a train on an open platform—when your coat blocks the wind effectively, it helps you retain warmth and stay comfortable even on blustery days.

Waterproofing is equally crucial. London’s frequent and unpredictable rain showers can catch you off guard. A coat with high waterproof ratings—over 10,000mmH2O—means it can withstand downpours and even snow. Picture commuting to work or exploring the city, knowing that your coat will repel the rain, keeping you dry and cheerful.

Breathability might seem less obvious but is vital. As you hustle through your day, from riding your bike to work to climbing stairs in the tube stations, a breathability rating of 10,000g/m²/24h ensures moisture can escape, preventing that clammy, uncomfortable feeling. When you’re engaging in intense activities, staying dry on the inside is just as important as on the outside.
