ABOUT 66°NORTH66°NORTH was established in 1926 when we began producing protective clothing for Icelandic � shermen and labourers. 85 years have passed, and our rugged workwear is still the � rst line of defence for those braving the North Atlantic.
Today our lines have expanded as we continue to proudly protect the Icelandic people from an unpredictable and sometimes hostile climate. Our outdoor clothing is the street wear of choice for young people, while Icelandic children wear clothes from 66°NORTH all year round, just like their great-grandparents did.
As we � nd inspiration in Iceland’s unique environment, we combine high-quality fabrics with technical innovation to meet the demands of our customers, whether they are walking in town or working among the glaciers. And we do it with style.
It’s no wonder that every other Icelander wears 66°NORTH.

JURY STATEMENT POLARTEC® NEOSHELL®
“Based on the highly technical fabric Polartec® NeoShell®, the Snæfell Jacket convinces through an outstanding performance for a broad range of use. Perfect construction and workmanship as well as very nice details make the jacket a perfect high-end concept that can be used by a broad target group of active outdoor sportsmen”.
Polartec® NeoShell® features a new hydrophobic, microporous, polyurethane membrane with a tightly controlled range of pore sizes. It has the durability and stretch of a polyurethane � lm plus the breathability of a microporous structure. This unique construction allows positive air exchange to drive moisture vapour release while remaining completely waterproof (10.000 mm). It does all this at a fraction of the weight of current mem-brane technologies.
• Waterproof. • Less noise than a hardshell.• Stretch for active comfort.• Warmth without weight.• Abrasion resistant face.• Highly breathable two-way air exchange. • Machine washable.• Blocks 99.9% of the wind.
