The Motivation from the Jury
»This is the most innovative product«, agrees the jury on the Lappland Eco-Shell Poncho from Fjällräven. This well-built Poncho offers more weather protection and better ventilation than a typical hard-shell jacket. It´s recyclable 2,5-layer fabric is soft, stretchy and highly breathable, the inner absorbs moisture better than other materials which result in minimal condensation. »This makes a big difference when working out hard as during our climb up the mountain«, notes one jury member. Reinforcements in the seat and shoulder area are very practical, the hood fits very well. Extra praise was given to Fjällräven as a company for all of their efforts in becoming one of the most sustainable outdoor brands on the market.
