As spring trickles in with rain and wind, designer jacket brand [Canada Goose](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-horizon) collaborated with Parisian clothing brand Y/Project on a designer unisex rainwear collection. The collection combines the high-quality and high-performance aspects of Canada Goose jackets with the [street-side couture accents](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moncler-and-jw-anderson) of Y/Project. The designer unisex rainwear collection is made using Canada Goose's Tri-Durance fabric that blocks both wind and rain while serving up a smooth, clean esthetic.

The spring capsule consists of five rainwear pieces: the thigh-length Seaboard Jacket, the standard-length Nanaimo Jacket, the open-fit Field Poncho, the large, pocketed Marquee Poncho, and a Bucket Hat. The designer unisex rainwear collection comes in a range of colors and has special features like built-in ventilation for temperature regulation and reflective accents for visibility. The collection debuts in China on May 7th, 2021, and will be available worldwide.
