Rukka Clothing
Rukka was founded in a Finnish farm kitched in 1950, inititaly called 'AB Sportsbeklädnad Urheiluvaatetus Oy’. Shortly afterwards they bought their first "welding" gear, enabling them to launch their first range of waterproof clothing.Thankfully, they changed their name to "Rukka" in 1966, which was the nickname of founder Roger Störling. Nowadays, Rukka is an independent division of one of Europe's largest sportswear manufacturers.
Things have moved on since the PVC waterproof suits Barry Sheene wore and the neon pink and purple suits that still seem to be going strong if the BMF show is anything to go by!
