Ringdans Ester Mittens

The Ringdans design is inspired by a famous Swedish song, The Maiden in the Ring, written by Stockholm-based composer and artist Hugo Alfvén (1872–1960). Öjbro’s founder and designer Åse Öjbro recalls: “I remember so well when my family and I danced around the Christmas tree during my childhood – all hand in hand, we children, our mothers and fathers, grandparents, uncles, grandmothers and grandparents”. This warm and vibrant pattern draws on those joyful emotions from childhood, evoking nostalgic memories of strong family ties and togetherness.

• Manufactured Locally - Öjbro Vantfabrik work closely with small, family-owned factories in Europe to produce high-quality apparel with a minimal carbon footprint
• Sustainability Through Longevity - By creating durable, hard-wearing gloves, socks and mittens, Öjbro Vantfabrik’s products last for years and can be repaired when worn down

There are two reasons you’ll fall in love with Öjbro Vantfabrik’s gloves and socks. Firstly, this homely Swedish brand fuse their heritage into each design, incorporating traditional Sami patterns and cultural tales into their woolen garments. It’s a carefully considered design process that affords their garments a story as rich as the material they’re built from. Which leads into the second reason: they’re hella comfy.

Each pair of gloves and socks that Öjbro Vantfabrik produce is crafted from premium wool sourced from ethical farmers and manufactured in eco-friendly factories. The resulting apparel is ludicrously soft and comfortable, not to mention built to endure years of wear, designed to keep you warm no matter the conditions outside.
