Norrøna - Norwegian Premium Down Jackets For New Zealand Conditions

Norwegians have a saying ‘There’s no such thing as bad weather, just the wrong clothes.’ To Norrøna that means making the apparel you need to get out there and enjoy the outdoors without the weather being an obstacle. When you consider that the alpine environment in New Zealand doesn’t take any prisoners either, you can see why Norrøna fits us perfectly here too. 

The philosophy of Loaded Minimalism™ guides Norrøna’s signature style. It is clean, pure, and highly functional, with strong colours that reflect the happy feeling of being in nature. You can see this ethos in Norrøna’s range of down jackets for men and women that we proudly stock in store and online at Outside Sports. 

Everyone needs a vest like this. The lighweight and durable Falketind 750 Down Vest works perfectly as an outer layer on cool summer days, and as an insulation layer during the winter.

Norrøna is named after an ancient Norwegian Viking dialect. Vikings were a bunch of hardy adventurers who never let the weather stand in their way. To say Norrøna like a native lightly roll the ‘R’s and gently accent the second syllable - ‘na’. The ø is a short, soft ‘ou’ sound as in ‘you.’
