thats such a pretty raincoat, almost identical to rukka. i love it. are those images available in full size from the collage?
I made them from two videos, not sure if they're still available on YT (But of course I have the video cut as well as the caps in my collection

)

are there any yellow hooded bormaxes? i have never seen one before. i do have a yellow hooded rukka like raincoat. it had a plaid lined hood and belt straps but no belt. also the hood was designed the same way as non belted rukkas.

Never seen yellow Børmax coats... I think long yellow coats are rather rare compared to classic black, green and blue. Shorter jackets and slickers seem to appear more often in yellow.

i have seen yellow bormax raincoats but they were not hooded. i have a yellow rukka length raincoat with a belt but has no hood and it has plastic traditional buttons. it also has a corduroy collar. sadly no hat came with it.

I love a shiny Rukka that has snaps at the neck. I know this sounds crazy, but I like to wear it inside out to feel the shininess against my skin… I know that’s a bit odd lol

With my modifications of my Farmerrain Retro coats I tried to get an aftermarkt buckle which looks like the original Rukka ones...
and is wide enough to handle a 5 cm belt (the belt of the coat). Impossible to find exact this buckle, the best I could find was that one here :
Together with a replacement of the original hood drawstring and cord ends this can give you the closest possible belted-Rukka-style with a contemporary "still in production" raincoat.
A different way and my newest project of modifying a Farmerrain Retro is the "Mackintosh belt mod"...
