Rain is no longer an excuse. Bad weather shouldn’t change your plans — or the way you dress. At HIGHXTAR, we’ve put together a selection of pieces designed to move through the city when conditions take a turn, combining real functionality with streetwear sensibility. A kit where technical garments, reworked classics and considered accessories coexist, treating rain as part of everyday life rather than an exception.
1. Stüssy GORE-TEX Guide Shell
When it rains, everything starts with a solid outer layer. The GORE-TEX Guide Shell by Stüssy is designed to offer real protection without sacrificing style. Made with GORE-TEX, it blocks out wind and rain while maintaining a relaxed silhouette that fits seamlessly into everyday urban life. The yellow colour works as a sharp contrast against grey days, turning the jacket into the focal point of the look — technical, functional and easy to wear.
It’s one of those pieces that proves streetwear knows how to operate on functional ground when needed. Available on Stüssy’s official website, with an approximate price range of €520–€600.
2. Maison Margiela MM6 x Salomon 5-Pocket Trousers
These trousers are deceptively simple. At first glance, they look like a standard pair of five-pocket trousers — the kind you’d throw on without a second thought. But here’s the twist: they’re made with GORE-TEX, meaning when the rain starts, nothing really changes. You keep walking, keep going about your day. Fashion that doesn’t force you to rethink your plans.
The collaboration between MM6 and Salomon works because it doesn’t try too hard. There’s no mountain aesthetic or hardcore technical vibe — just a well-made, comfortable pair of trousers built for bad weather without losing shape or intention. The kind of garment that makes an outfit feel considered, even when it doesn’t look like it.
Available on the Maison Margiela official website and selected retailers, with an approximate price of €750.
3. Timberland 6-Inch Premium
Some rainy days don’t call for innovation — just for relying on what you know works. The Timberland 6-Inch Premium boots have been proving their worth on wet city streets for decades. This textured beige version keeps the classic DNA intact, adding a finish that feels current without losing its edge.
They’re sturdy, comfortable and give that reassuring sense of being well grounded, even when the pavement is soaked. They work just as well with technical outerwear as they do with more relaxed looks, bringing balance when the rest of the outfit leans towards more experimental territory. A well-placed classic still makes perfect sense.
Available on the Timberland official website, priced at approximately €285.
4. Y-3 Newspaper Tote Bag
Once you’re wearing a technical jacket, waterproof trousers and boots built to take on the streets, the bag needs to keep up. The Newspaper Tote by Y-3 isn’t here to solve the rain — it’s here to finish the look with intent. Graphic, clean and carrying that familiar balance between sport and fashion that defines the label, it works as an accessory without feeling secondary.
It’s the kind of tote you grab without thinking, yet somehow it makes everything fall into place. It holds just what you need, stays lightweight and pairs effortlessly with both technical pieces and more understated outfits. It doesn’t compete, but it definitely doesn’t disappear either.
Available on the adidas / Y-3 official website and selected retailers, with an approximate price of €180.
5. Oakley Windproof Umbrella
And of course, the umbrella couldn’t be left out. Technical clothing helps, but when the rain really sets in, some things remain essential. The Oakley Windproof Umbrella is built for days when a good jacket simply isn’t enough — when it’s raining, windy and the city keeps moving. Its vented canopy system allows air to pass through, preventing it from turning inside out, while its generous size offers solid coverage without getting in the way.
The metal camo black finish and metallic Oakley logo give it a technical, almost futuristic edge that fits seamlessly with the rest of the kit. This isn’t the kind of umbrella you forget or leave behind — it’s an accessory with its own identity. Comfortable to hold thanks to the EVA rubber grip and easy to carry once the rain clears, it’s the natural conclusion to a look designed for the city, whatever the weather.
Available on the Oakley official website for €45, proving that even the most basic essentials can carry style when chosen well.
