Jake Gyllenhaal wears Glymur 66°NORTH jacket
The newest issue of US Weekly features a whole page of Jake Gyllenhaal wearing a black Glymur breathing jacket from 66°NORTH. In the picture, he is walking down a street in LA with his girlfriend, Oscar winning actress Reese Witherspoon.
Jake Gyllenhaal is not the only celebrity who likes to wear 66°NORTH clothing. Film directors Quentin Tarantino (Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill) and Eli Roth (Hostel) are great fans of 66°NORTH. Hollywood actress Scarlett Johansson has also been spotted dressed in its clothes on various occasions.
The photo in US Weekly was a nice surprise for the people at 66°NORTH and proves, once again, that the reputation of the company has travelled far from the shores of Iceland.
