When Norwegian brand Amundsen say 'fleece', they mean it quite literally. Their fleeces are made from 55% virgin wool mixed with polyester for that lovely fluffy sherpa texture coupled with the warmth of real sheep. Their Heroes wool gilet has been a mainstay of the range for a while now, and praise be, someone has finally persuaded them to stick some sleeves on it. This women’s version of the Heroes wool fleece jacket is deliciously warm even when it gets damp, and it's naturally undyed, so the colour comes from the wool mix. Like the bodywarmer, it's got handwarmer pockets, elasticated hems and a stylish little chest pocket in waxed cotton.

Amundsen clothing is named after one of the greatest explorers ever to walk the Earth. No pressure there then. In fact, the company’s co-founder, Jørgen Amundsen, is a relative of the legendary man himself, and the brand’s designs are based on classic styles from the golden age of exploration. Throw in a generous dash of 1960s Nordic ski resort chic and you’ve got a unique range of good-looking kit that’ll get you noticed in all the right ways.
However, there’s nothing old-fashioned about the way Amundsen’s gear performs. Ruggedly built from merino wool and waterproof triple-layer cotton, these are serious expedition-grade garments built for a Scandi outdoor culture – a concept that the Norwegians call ‘friluftsliv’, or ‘open-air life’. It’s the idea that time spent enjoying the freedom of the outdoors should be a core part of your life, since it enhances just about everything else. Now that’s something we can all get on board with.
