Stutterheim

A Stockholm maker of PVC-rubberised raincoats in the fisherman idiom — an absolute barrier with no breathability pretension, plus newer water-resistant woven lines.

Founded 2010Last verified 2026-10-19

Background

Started in Stockholm in 2010. Garments are designed in Stockholm and made in Europe — brand origin and manufacturing location are distinct.

What to check before buying

Editorial buying guidance, not a brand rating

Treat the classic range as non-breathable urban rainwear: the barrier is effectively absolute, but so is the seal against your own moisture. The SS25 woven water-resistant fabrics are a different product — do not transfer the PVC range's water-column claim to them, or their breathability claim to the PVC classics.

For the general method, see how to choose a waterproof jacket and waterproof ratings explained.

WaterproofJacket.com assessment

Our editorial view of the brand

Strengths

  • Documented fabric weights per style — 530 g/m² Original Heavyweight down to 280 g/m² Midweight
  • PVC coating on a knitted backing is a genuinely impermeable barrier; the FAQ claims >20,000 mm water column
  • Honest, traditional construction with published per-style fabric weights

Weaknesses

  • No breathability figures published for the classic PVC range; the documented 'breathable' claim belongs to the newer SS25 woven-polyester fabrics
  • No in-house repair service — the official support article suggests a local tailor instead
  • The one-year guarantee support article dates from 2018; current webshop terms publish no warranty duration
