Clothing & Equipment Guides

To try and bridge the gap between the physical and the virtual Nordic Outdoor are beginning a new series of blogs where we take a deeper dive into some of our favourite products to showcase what make them the perfect outdoor kit. In the first instalment we are going to pull the Klättermusen Spring Summer 21 collection under the microscope and examine why the Mountain Mouse has never been a better choice for those of us who find joy in venturing into the unknown (or just looking the bees knees on the walk to lidl).

For Spring Summer 2021 we are delighted to add a brand we have admired for years into the Nordic Outdoor family. Norrøna have a history stretching back to 1929 and are still at the forefront of innovation for outdoor clothing & equipment. With a focus on performance, durability and sustainability the new collection has something for every adventure. Read more about the history of Norrøna in our latest blog.

While many of us have spent the past 12 months of lockdown using a long walk as the primary excuse to leave the house that does not mean we’ll be stopping anytime soon. As the restrictions ease over the next few months and the UK opens there will be more opportunity and desire than ever to explore some of the untouched beauty of these islands. Picking the right pair of Walking trousers is essential and we’ve taken a look at some of our favourites for this coming year.

This guide should help alleviate some of the panic that comes with this time of year. As a reader of this blog we can confidently assume you’re into the outdoors, or are shopping for an outdoor enthusiast. Practitioners of outdoor sports and activities are some of the easiest people in the world to shop for. So whether it’s your hiker husband's big gift or a small token of affection for your weird aunt who lives in a tent we’re sure to have something to put a smile on your gift recipient's face. 

We’re proud to announce the introduction of Klattermusen to the Nordic Outdoor line up. Introducing a new brand to Nordic Outdoor is always a cause of great excitement amongst our staff and we’re always keen to transfer that excitement on to you, our customers. To many, Klattermusen needs no introduction. But for the uninitiated we thought it would be helpful to do an in depth look into Klattermusen and all the things you can expect from them. 

A new season at Nordic Outdoor is always a cause of great excitement for us but it can be easy to be overwhelmed by the sheer number of new items hitting the shelves. At times like these it can be helpful to sit back and take a more detailed look at some of our new arrivals. Whilst we wouldn’t stock anything we didn’t think was great, these are some of our brand highlights from Didriksons for Autumn Winter 2020 at Nordic Outdoor

When you buy a product from one of our stores or our website you can rest assured knowing that the brand who produced your item did so in an environmentally responsible manner. Didriksons are one such brand and are a dream to work with due to their transparency throughout their chain of production.

It can be daunting trying to pick the best pair of outdoor trousers to fit your needs. Fjallraven produce a number of pieces all with their different benefits to consider. This blog goes into detail on some of our most popular models and will help you decide which trouser suits you best.

Though the brands we stock may change, the way we do things stays the same”. This has been something of a motto here at Nordic Outdoor since our early days and it remains today as true as ever. As our company grows and we open new stores throughout the UK we are constantly looking for the best brands for our customers which match with our three tenants of Style, Function and Sustainability. With this in mind we are delighted to introduce Tretorn to the Nordic Outdoor family for Spring Summer 20.

After we looked at the Tentipi last week and how this can offer the perfect way to make camping attractive to the whole family we have decided this week to explore what we think might be the perfect one person tent. Iconic Swedish tent manufacturer Hilleberg have been producing the Soulo since 2008 and in this time it has emerged as the gold standard of strong and durable one man tents. We’ve taken a closer look at what makes this such an incredible shelter for any expedition in the latest Nordic Outdoor blog.
