4. What is so great about 66NORTH?

Unlike many of our competitors, 66NORTH has an authentic and real story behind it. 66NORTH has been in Iceland for over 80 years, starting out as a commercial fishing line that produced durable and waterproof outfits for the harshest of weather out at sea. They started into the cold weather market shortly thereafter and began with a layering system that will beat the coldest of cold days. Yes, there’s a lot of fleece out there… but not many you can find that are rich in culture and represent an amazing country and lifestyle.

And we don’t like to brag - but our fit is like nothing you will find in any other outerwear line. Try on a piece and you won’t even know you are wearing a fleece… who knew you would wear polar fleece and look so fashionable?
