Which color suits your everyday life, your wardrobe and your sense of style? Here is our clear, practical advice - with a wink for Hamburg's bad weather.

Why choose the Claude?

• 10,000 mm water column, windproof, DWR impregnation

• Micro Ripstop 4.0 made from 100% recycled nylon: robust, lightweight, durable
• Heat-sealed seams, inner wind flap
• Packs into its own pocket - minimal pack size for city & travel
• Adjustable hood, elasticated cuffs, adjustable hem, 2 zip pockets

Color advice: four shades, four characters

• Orange - the clear accent

  • Effect: Lively, sporty, urban; brings light to gray days.
  • Combination: Navy blue chinos, gray fine knit, white sneakers.
  • Occasion: City weekend, travel look, active lunch break.
  • For you, if: You have understated wardrobes and like a punctual touch of color - without a big logo appearance.

• Olive (Green Blackish) - the smart all-rounder

  • Effect: Earthy elegance, understated, very combinable.
  • Combination: Navy or dark gray, leather boots, wool hat in natural tones.
  • Occasion: Commuting, walks, casual Friday.
  • For you, if: Function and understatement have priority - robust, but never loud.

• Navy (Blue Deepth) - the timeless classic

  • Effect: Serious, purist, always appropriate.
  • Combination: Dark denim, light Oxford shirt, city shoes.
  • Occasion: Business casual, travel, dinner after the office.
  • For you, when: A jacket should match "everywhere" if possible.

• Silver-grey (Grey) - the modern neutral

  • Effect: Technically clear, light, reduced.
  • Combination: Black, anthracite, white; sporty mid-layer in merino.
  • Occasion: Minimalist looks, architectural aesthetics, city trips.
  • For you if: You prefer clean lines and a fresh, bright option.

Tip: Two-color strategy. Navy or olive as a "daily driver", orange or silver-grey as an accent for travel and weekends. This will keep you flexible - and dry.
