Fjallraven
Pioneers in the exploration and preservation of our natural surroundings, Swedish brand Fjallraven take inspiration from the world around us to continually develop their sustainable, high performance clothing. Whether you are battling harsh climates in the depths of winter or navigating the wilderness in the warmer weather, Fjallravens’ commitment to creating garments with high levels of functionality and low levels of carbon emissions means you’ll always be prepared for whatever nature throws at you. Founded in Åke Nordin’s basement in 1960, the brand’s mission to develop highly functional pieces while acting responsibly towards their impact on the environment, animals, and people is at the heart of every design. In the years that followed, Fjallraven has been thrust into the global stage with the creation of their hugely popular Kanken bag. Originally designed as a solution to the back problems experienced by Swedish school children, the Kanken is now as much at home on the back of a commuter in Tokyo as it is on a student in Stockholm. Innovative solutions to the global issue of climate change heralded the creation of the exclusive G-1000 fabric: a recycled polyester and organic cotton blend which protects you from the elements while protecting the environment from unnecessary emissions. With weather resistance, freedom of movement that surpasses any other and functional, eco-friendly designs, Fjallraven encourages the wearer to embrace nature’s beauty and unpredictability.
