Environmentally Friendly 

Icewear’s Black Sheep Collection takes sustainability further with timeless design and durable, high-quality materials. The outdoor line is 100% OEKO-TEX certified, meaning every component—from fabrics to threads—has been tested for up to 350 harmful substances. The outer shell and lining are made from 100% recycled nylon.

Since its founding in 1972, wool has been central to Icewear’s design and production. The Black Sheep Collection uses an 80% Icelandic wool / 20% recycled PET-bio polyester insulation, a modern solution that repurposes leftover wool once unsuitable for knitting.

OEKO-TEX-100

The collection’s OEKO-TEX 100 certification guarantees that every material—fabrics, threads, elastics, zippers, snaps—has been independently tested and confirmed safe from harmful chemicals. Each garment includes a QR code linking directly to its certification for full transparency.

Icelandic Wool-Fill

The Icelandic wool insulation in the Black Sheep Collection is OEKO-TEX 100 certified and globally unique. Icelandic wool has protected locals for centuries, thanks to its dual-layer structure: a coarse inner layer that traps warmth, and longer outer hairs that naturally repel water—keeping wearers warm and dry in changing conditions.

Icewear from Iceland since 1972

Founded in the early 1970s as a small wool-knitting factory, Icewear built expertise in Scandinavian yarn traditions and tested its designs in Iceland’s demanding climate. Today, that heritage continues to shape outdoor clothing crafted for durability, comfort, and cold-weather performance.

The Launch of Icewear’s Black Sheep Line

At the heart of Icewear’s more than 50 years of experience is one remarkable material: Icelandic wool. For over 1,000 years, the Icelandic people have relied on this material to withstand the elements.
