There is one thing that is important to remember during summer in Britain: that the images that we have of a scorching hot sunny day drinking Pimm's topless never actually happen! Hot summers in Britain simply just don't exist. Last week saw both T in the Park and Wakestock festival launch an unofficial start to the UK festival season. They got lucky with the weather with temperatures reaching the high twenties, however lets not forget that one thing is an absolute necessity in any UK festival backpack.. a waterproof jacket. Here is a short guide on what I deem to be this years most stylish way to stay dry this summer:
K-Way Claude Jacket
Already being used by festival goers is the lightweight Claude jacket from K-way. Due to it's affordability and durability, the jacket will be sure to turn heads as it also
comes in a variety of colours. Being both affordable and stylish, the jacket is an excellent purchase for anyone looking to stay dry in the summer showers.
Norse Projects Elka Jacket
An absolute gem of a jacket! Made almost completely of PVC it is about as waterproof as a jacket gets. Although limited in colour the jacket is brilliant due to its simplicity and effectiveness. It is a versatile jacket which is breathable during summer however will also warm enough to last you into the autumn and possibly even winter providing global warming hurries up.
Pretty Green Camo Festival Jacket
If standing out from the crowd just really isn't your thing and you are more prone to blending in then this jacket will help. Pretty Green do numerous festival jackets but this one (ironically) stands out as being the best of the lot, made from 100% nylon and being fully waterproof. It is sure to keep your best festival t-shirt dry during the summer. Also it's called the festival jacket; it basically sells itself.
