Mittens from Skogstad Salbu

Skogstad is a family business with roots in the mountains, fjords and glaciers of Norway, producing sports and leisure clothing since 1937. Its headquarters continue to be in the small village of Innvik in Nordfjord, where snow lies almost six months of the year and, due to the mountains, there is no sun from November 21 to January 21. The brand logo is a visualization of the beautiful surroundings in which the company was founded: to the north of Innvik there are kilometers of mountains stretching to the Arctic Circle; to the west there is a fjord 90 km, then the North Sea; to the east is the largest glacier in continental Europe; and to the south lies Pichen, a mountain that rises from the waters of the Nordfjord to reach 1,550 m at its peak.

The company's vision is to give you the pleasure of using high-quality products, produced with respect for the environment, respecting ethics, creating pure Norwegian design, quality and functionality. All the brand's designers are skiers and design clothing from a position of knowledge and experience, which now translates into a leading position in the development of high-quality waterproof and windproof outdoor clothing with glued seams for children in Norway. In addition, the brand declares a clear commitment to introducing environmentally friendly and sustainable changes in its production and clothing processes. Most packaging is made of recyclable cardboard, and all paper and cardboard used in the offices and during production is recycled.

Skogstad is constantly working to minimize the use of harmful chemicals in the production of its garments. Testing by the Environment Directorate as early as 2015 showed that Skogstad products contain very low levels of chemicals - well below the industry standard. Their technical jackets win awards for being free from harmful chemicals as well as consistently high levels of water resistance. All microfleece products from this brand are certified by the Nordic Swan Ecolabel - as the most sustainable fleece ever made. Nordic Swan Ecolabel stands for reduced greenhouse gas emissions, sustainable use of resources and non-toxic everyday life.

Thanks to Skogstad you will get something special. Something permanent. Something foolproof. Something qualitative and something innovative.
