Origin

1920s: from Greenlandic anoraq. The British English informal sense dates from the 1980s and derives from the anoraks worn by trainspotters, regarded as typifying this kind of person.

The anorak comes from Greenland, where the Inupiaq language of the Inuit gave us the word for a hooded waterproof jacket. The shabby anoraks traditionally worn by trainspotters and others with unfashionable preoccupations led to such people being known as anoraks from the early 1980s.
