Part backpack, part utility vest
Designed with hunters in mind — but just as handy for bushcraft, photography or fieldwork — the Lappland Vest Pack blends the function of a pack with the agility of a vest. It features an internal frame that stands up on its own, making it easy to slip on and off, plus masses of intuitive storage including bottle holders, game pockets and a hydration sleeve. Made from tough G-1000 HeavyDuty S, it’s a serious bit of gear for those who need to carry loads, stay mobile and access essentials fast.

When it comes to iconic Swedish exports, Fjällräven is right up there with IKEA and Volvo.* ‘The Arctic Fox’ has been in the outdoor gear game since the 60s, but the story really dates back to 1950, when founder Åke Nordin – then 14 years old – took his mum’s treadle sewing machine down to the cellar and cobbled together his first rucksack.
Some of Fjällräven’s products are instantly recognisable, including the Kånken backpack – originally designed for Swedish schoolkids in the 1970s – and their famous Greenland jacket, first released in 1968. But they also have a knack for combining vintage looks with modern materials and refinements. Products in their Vardag line, for example, were inspired by a deep dive into the brand’s old catalogues – and feature the brand’s 70s logo instead of the modern one.
Quintessentially Scandi, Fjällräven kit is built tough and dependable for people who live, work and play in the outdoors, day-in, day-out. You’re as likely to see their popular Keb trousers on gamekeepers and foresters as you are on hikers and bushcrafters.
But this is a brand that does more than just gear. Åke Nordin was all about the shared experience of the outdoors, and since 2005, thousands of people every year have taken part in their Fjällräven Classic treks – which now operate in seven different countries from Sweden to Korea, including the UK.
