Jöttnar Expands Range for Winter 2015

Jöttnar is due to release an expanded new range for Winter 2015 as it enters its third year of trading this month.  With a continued focus on mountaineering, winter climbing and all-mountain skiing, the British technical apparel company will be adding four new products to its line-up.  All existing items are being carried forward and will incorporate new colourways and performance updates.  The new products include:

  • a bibless version of the acclaimed Vanir salopettes
  • a lightweight NeoShell® jacket aimed at summer Alpine use
  • a general-purpose Schoeller® softshell mountain trouser
  • a women’s version of the existing Fenrir hydrophobic micro-down jacket  

Jöttnar will continue to sell direct through its website and is also poised to expand its existing stable of UK independent specialists, which will include the iconic Joe Brown shops. 

Tommy Kelly, co-founder, said, “We remain a small and streamlined operation which allows Steve and me, the two founders, to personally take decisions on the many thousands of seemingly small design and construction details.  Our product improves year on year and the functionality, fit and finish that we’ve achieved this time around makes this winter’s range the best yet.”

The new range will be available by mid-October.
