At Fjällräven, we have a deep appreciation for wool. Recognized as one of nature's most versatile materials, wool offers unparalleled functionality for travelers and outdoor enthusiasts. While it's well-known for its ability to provide warmth by trapping air between its fibers, wool is more than just an insulator.
By all accounts, Evelina Nordin loves nature, travel and hanging out with friends. There is, however, one detail that makes her unique: she’s the granddaughter of our founder Åke Nordin. Here, she shares her thoughts on what it’s like to balance walking in her grandfather’s footsteps, while forging her own path.
Brattland wool, sourced from the resilient Jämtlandsfår breed, thrives in the harsh yet invigorating climate of central Sweden. Renowned for its exceptional fineness and luster, this wool boasts natural resistance to dirt and odors while efficiently regulating body temperature—a testament to its unrivaled quality.
Re-Wool we’re using surplus wool to make brand new products. Using traditional Italian craftsmanship, the recycled wool is colour-sorted, shredded then blended with other colours to get a unique nuance.
We’ve had fully traceable, ethically-sourced down in our products since 2014. In 2015 we started looking into how we could achieve traceability and better ethics in our wool chain too.
Åke Nordin, founder of Fjällräven didn’t know he was about to create the legendary Expedition Down Jacket. He just wanted a way for his teeth to stop chattering.
