A padded gilet built for layering
A gilet earns its place by adding warmth without getting in the way, and the Singi does exactly that across the core while leaving your arms free to work. The relaxed cut slips easily over a jumper or under a shell, and the recycled padding keeps your chest warm while hand pockets tucked beneath the insulation layer keep your fingers warm too. And storage is the Singi's other strength, with roomy bellows chest pockets sat low for easy reach, an interior zipped pocket and a dedicated slot for a multitool.

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.
