Our story

About us

We are David and Per, two friends from northern Norrland, with roots between LuleĂ„ and Kiruna. Up here by the Arctic Circle, outdoor life is part of everyday life – sometimes involuntarily but mostly voluntarily. How we became passionate about gloves might be a wonder, but that’s how it happened.

It started with ourselves

Back home from the mountain, the same problem appeared: torn and wet gloves. With stiff frozen fingers as a result. So one February evening in 2018, after a long day on the mountain, we sat inside by the cabin fire and said: This has to be done better!

That was the starting shot. What really makes a glove truly good? How does it stay warm without feeling bulky? Where does it wear the most? Where does it fail and why?

We took apart old and new models. Delved into materials and details. Every prototype taught us something new. The material was wrong, the seam didn’t hold, the feel was missing. We started over. And again.

After years of work, we stand here with gloves we use ourselves and proudly share with you.

Our philosophy is simple

We build for the long term and do it honestly. A good glove shouldn’t be replaced – it should wear without wearing out and be shaped by the years, and you should gladly pass it on one day.

We are inspired by people who have experience and push their gear to the limit (read about our ambassadors). Our design language is rooted in classic craftsmanship and Sami heritage: sturdy stitches and simplicity.

With best regards
