Thick, warm jacket in 100% merino wool suitable for all outdoor use; out for a walk when it's cold in winter, autumn and spring, or if you're just going out for shopping etc. FRIDA is a fitted long women's model which is longer than GRIMSBU. At the same time as the jacket is warm and practical, it is also incredibly nice as it has a more coat-like shape with a fitted waist. At the end of the sleeves there is a tight and flexible ribbed cuff that sits well around the wrist - this makes the jacket feel warm, does not let out warmth and makes it easy to wear any gloves/mittens over it. Good location and size of pockets in the sides. High neck that is nice and warm when closed and lays nicely when the jacket is open. Denim blue.
NB - women's sizes - see the measurements, and if you know yoiur size in Grimsbu, you should go up a size in Frida.
This jacket will keep you warm for sure. Although it does not have windproof fabric, it insulates incredibly well.
Why wool? All Canelana's wool products are made from good quality merino wool. Wool has three wonderful properties; it warms, insulates and breathes. Wool warms even when wet. Wool is not static an odors do not settle in wool products like in synthetic fabrics. For those who want functional wool products in good quality, Canelana is a good first choice!
About washing and cleaning FRIDA jacket and other Canelana wool products: In many cases it may be enough to shake and air in fresh air for a couple of hours, wool is antibacterial and dirt usually does not get absorbed into the wool fibers, but settles outside. If you want to wash, we recomment machine washing wool program 30 degrees (Celcius), and wool detergent. The machine programs are often gentler than hand washing as the temperature is precisely regulated. In addition, machine washing rinses out the rinse water with residues of soap and dirt, and centrifugation means that the woolen fabric is dried more quickly. Wet woolen fabric can provide good conditions for bacterial growth through the residual water, even though wool is antibacterial.
