- Arm Length - Bend the elbow slightly, then measure from the center back of the neck, over the shoulder to the elbow, and down to the wrist.
- Chest - Measure straight under your arms around your body at the fullest part of your chest.
- Waist - Measure around your waist at the narrowest part.
- Seat - Standing with your feet hip-width apart, measure around your hips at the widest part.

When it comes to iconic Swedish exports, Fjllrven 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 ke Nordin then 14 years old took his mums treadle sewing machine down to the cellar and cobbled together his first rucksack.
Some of Fjllrvens products are instantly recognisable, including the Knken 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 brands old catalogues and feature the brands 70s logo instead of the modern one.
Quintessentially Scandi, Fjllrven kit is built tough and dependable for people who live, work and play in the outdoors, day-in, day-out. Youre 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. ke Nordin was all about the shared experience of the outdoors, and since 2005, thousands of people every year have taken part in their Fjllrven Classic treks which now operate in seven different countries from Sweden to Korea, including the UK.
*Our senior buyer says we need to mention Saab here too.
The kind of find thats a subtle game-changer.
