Warm winter wear for Nordic climates

Because the Icewear team has winter experience, they know what keeps you warm. Here, you’ll find everything you need for very cold weather, from high-performance parkas to base layers and accessories.

Snowsuits, snow trousers and other gear

Iceland isn’t the biggest ski destination, but locals and tourists take to the slopes in areas near Reykjavik as well as Akureyri in the north. Beyond the resorts, Icelanders and tourists alike trek across glaciers and other icy terrains. These conditions demand apparel made to perform. Enter: Icewear warm winter clothing.

Experience the level of quality you can feel, even when ice, rain, or the coldest wind sweeps across the tundra.

Base layers for optimal warmth

Merino wool base layers, including tops, long johns, and undergarments, they’re the secret ingredient to regulating body temperature in winter. Layering keeps you warm without overheating because the ultra-fine and soft Merino fibres wick moisture and lock in heat, even when wet.

Base layers are how you make the difference between “I’m fine” and feeling truly comfortable. Learn more about layering on the Icewear blog.

Wool ski jumpers: the Heart of winter warmth

Winterwear comes full circle with Icewear traditional wool jumpers. For over a thousand years, Icelanders have trusted the unique dual-fibre warmth of Icelandic wool, and with these traditional Scandinavian design jumpers, you can carry a piece of Icelandic heritage with you on every adventure.

Warm winter accessories

Even the toughest winter coat can’t do the job alone. The right winter accessories offer total comfort, not to mention convenience and safety. Icewear wool hats stay warm even when wet, and waterproof ski gloves are insulated for maximum protection. Hiking gear includes crampons and headlights to cover needs for every imaginable landscape.

Winter accessories are the small but crucial details that make the difference you need.

Parkas and insulated winter coats

A well-made parka balances insulation, wind resistance and breathability. Icewear has engineered a full range of high-quality parkas with different insulation weights and fill options, including Icewear’s own innovative Icelandic wool insulation.

Does it snow in Iceland?

Iceland’s winters include snow-covered landscapes, cosy cabins, and breathtaking views of the Northern Lights. But the winter climate is moderated by ocean currents that keep it milder than you might think.

Travelling to Iceland in the winter does mean you’ll face the cold, but with the right winterwear you can take it all in your stride.
