1960s foreign correspondent, eat your heart out
Amundsen apparel has a knack of making you feel like the hero of your own movie and in the case of this utilitarian Adventure Vest, you'd be hitching into the bush on the back of a Series II Land Rover with an Olivetti travel typewriter in one hand and a Nikon F slung across your chest. It's made in a tough cotton drill fabric that's been enzyme washed to give it a worn-in look from the first wear, with a zip front and a stylish little button tab across the front. This wearable toolbox has 12 different pockets offering plenty of space for your ring-bound notebook, pack of Luckies, rolls of Tri-X film etc.

Amundsen Sports is named after one of the greatest explorers ever to walk the Earth. No pressure there then. In fact, the companys co-founder, Jrgen Amundsen, is a relative of the legendary man himself, and the brands designs are based on classic styles from the golden age of exploration. Throw in a generous dash of 1960s Nordic ski resort chic and youve got a unique range of good-looking kit thatll get you noticed in all the right ways.
However, theres nothing old-fashioned about the way Amundsens 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. Its 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 thats something we can all get on board with.
A simple addition that brings a sense of order.
