Hans Kristjánsson founded 66°North in 1926 to aid the Icelandic fishermen and workers braving the North Atlantic elements. Passionate about creating protective garments against harsh weather conditions, the brand began to expand and supply to Icelandic search and rescue teams, which they still do a century on. Today, 66°North has evolved into a global community that reaches for an adventurous outdoor lifestyle. Combining high-performance and technical fabrics with panel construction and well-thought-out silhouettes, their range of insulated soft-shell jackets, shearling fleece zip-ups, and PrimaLoft® Aerogel microfiber blend pants make life and activity possible on any occasion, in any climate.
