Fjällräven began in one man’s basement and then branched out all over the world. But our original goal hasn’t changed: to inspire and enable more people to walk with nature. Follow our journey from backpacks and tents to sustainable development and events.
G-1000 is our cornerstone material. We use it in everything from backpacks to jackets and trousers. It’s a densely woven fabric made from 65% polyester and 35% cotton and, by using Greenland Wax, it’s adaptable to a whole variety of different climatic conditions.
G-1000 is a tough material with a tight weave that makes it naturally wind resistant. By adding Greenland Wax, which is made from a mixture of beeswax and paraffin, you can increase the wind and water resistance and durability.
