Tantä
Tantä makes rainwear with real style, which is exactly what a Welsh winter calls for. Taking its name from the Basque word for a drop of water, the label designs waterproof coats, long puffers and padded jackets that look as good on Pontcanna Street as they do on a coastal walk.
Our edit sits within our wider coats and jackets collection and is bought in small batches, never restocked. Pop into our Cardiff shop to try a few lengths on, or browse the full Tantä range below. Once a style has gone, it has gone.
Tantä Rainwear at Kiti
We live in Cardiff, so we take rain seriously. Tantä is the label we turn to when we want a coat that genuinely deals with the weather without looking like it belongs on a mountain. Clean lines, considered colours and practical details make these pieces easy to wear from the school run to a Saturday in town, and they sit happily in our wider coats and jackets collection.
The brand takes its name from the Basque word for a drop of water, which tells you where its priorities lie. Our edit focuses on the styles we think work best for a British winter: waterproof coats, long puffers and padded jackets, plus a clever hood or two.
Tantä Coats and Jackets
Waterproof coats and raincoats
If you are looking for a Tantä raincoat, start with the Vand Waterproof Coat. It is the piece we reach for on properly wet days, with a length that covers more than a short jacket ever could. The Ice Coat offers another longer silhouette for anyone who wants coverage with a cleaner, more tailored feel.
Long puffers and padded coats
For colder months, the Tantä long puffers are the stars of the edit. The Rime Long Puffer and Glaze Long Puffer are both long-line styles that keep more of you warm, while the Snestorm Puffer Coat brings plenty of warmth in a slightly different shape. All three layer easily over chunky knitwear.
Shorter jackets
Prefer something shorter? The Snow Jacket and Istap Jacket give you protection with more freedom of movement, which makes them ideal for cycling, dog walks or simply hopping in and out of the car.
Hoods and accessories
The Bing Reversible Hood is a brilliant extra for days when a hat will not stay put. Find it with our hats, or browse our full range of hats, scarves and gloves to finish your winter outfit.
How to Choose Your Tantä Coat
Think first about how you will use it. A waterproof coat is the better choice for wet, mild days, while a long puffer comes into its own when the temperature drops. Length matters too: longer coats keep more of you dry and warm, while shorter jackets are easier for active days.
- Size with layers in mind, especially if you wear thick jumpers underneath.
- Check the sleeve length with your arms bent, as cuffs should still cover your wrists.
- Look at the hood, pockets and fastenings, as these make the biggest difference day to day.
How to Style Tantä Outerwear
We love a long Tantä puffer over straight leg jeans and a pair of sturdy boots, finished with a generous wool scarf from our scarves edit. A waterproof coat works just as well over a knitted dress or tailored trousers on the way to the office.
Caring for Waterproof and Padded Coats
Always check the care label inside your coat first. As a general rule, wash technical outerwear gently, skip fabric softener, and let pieces dry naturally rather than on a radiator. Hang padded coats somewhere airy so the filling keeps its loft.
Our Tantä stock is bought in small batches and never restocked; once a style has gone, it has gone. If you would like to try a few on, come and see us on Pontcanna Street in Cardiff.
