Guide: Choosing the right jacket for autumn and winter
Jackets for all conditions
Jackets for all conditions
Summer has bid farewell, and autumn has made its entrance. As temperatures drop, the jacket becomes an increasingly vital component. At Garphyttan, we've developed jackets that withstand all weather elements, from rain and sleet to sudden shifts when the snow arrives. But how do you know which jacket to choose?

Working with the multi layer principle
Our jackets are created with the idea of serving more than one purpose. They are versatile and adaptable to be used in a range of conditions, from mild to extreme. Above all, they are designed to work in combination with each other, based on the so-called multi layer principle.
By applying this principle, users can customize their jacket based on factors like physical activity, temperature, and wind conditions. This principle allows you to create a system that simply works in all autumn and winter temperatures.

Our jackets
Let's go through some of our most popular jackets, how they function on their own, but most importantly, in combination with each other as autumn and eventually winter set in.

Original Winter Jacket
Our Original Winter Jacket is designed to be versatile, offering insulation without going to extremes. This means it can serve as a moderately warm jacket for everyday use on a chilly autumn day or a mild winter day. However, by combining it with multiple underlying layers, it can help you face even the most extreme weather conditions.

Specialist Jacket
Our Specialist Jacket, like all Garphyttan products, is designed to work seamlessly with other garments. Its pockets are constructed for easy access, even with gloves on, ensuring your hands stay warm in chilly conditions. Thanks to stretch panels on the sides, this jacket is a better option when you need to move more freely. In many cases, the Specialist Jacket is used as an outer shell during autumn, but in extreme conditions, it can also function as a layer under the Original Winter Jacket.

Specialist Anorak
Unlike our Specialist Jacket, this Anorak is created in a more oversized fit, providing additional space for more underlying layers. Therefore, the Anorak becomes an obvious choice as an outer layer, for example on a skiing trip, when the Specialist Jacket is too cold and the Winter Jacket is too warm.

Specialist Insulated Jacket
Our Insulated Jacket is your go-to reinforcement for extra warmth. It shares the same pocket setup as our other outerwear, allowing you to access your essentials without disrupting muscle memory. Its slim and snug cuffs are designed to easily accommodate larger gloves on top and smaller ones underneath. This ensures a comfortable fit and keeps your hands warm. This jacket works best as an additional reinforcement layer between a fleece and an outer shell jacket, but can also be used as an outer jacket during shorter breaks, as it offers durability and strength.
