A lazy-days beach hoodie with a difference
Why don't people make corduroy hoodies more often Cord is soft, warm, and doesn't lose its 'bounce' as quickly as your common-or-garden cotton jersey fabric does. Fortunately, Oslo-based Amundsen Sports are on it – and as you might expect if you've encountered their gear before, there are no half measures here. The stretch corduroy they've used is properly velvety, made in 100% organic cotton. Style-wise, the button-and-loop neck and roomy front kangaroo pocket give it a salty surfer vibe that melds deliciously with the old-school luxury of the fabric. It’s something a bit different, and we reckon it’s an absolute winner

Amundsen Sports is named after one of the greatest explorers ever to walk the Earth. No pressure there then. In fact, the company’s co-founder, Jørgen Amundsen, is a relative of the legendary man himself, and the brand’s designs are based on classic styles from the golden age of exploration. Throw in a generous dash of 1960s Nordic ski resort chic and you’ve got a unique range of good-looking kit that’ll get you noticed in all the right ways.
However, there’s nothing old-fashioned about the way Amundsen’s gear performs. Ruggedly built from merino wool and waterproof triple-layer cotton, these are serious expedition-grade garments built for a Scandi outdoor culture – a concept that the Norwegians call ‘friluftsliv’, or ‘open-air life’. It’s the idea that time spent enjoying the freedom of the outdoors should be a core part of your life, since it enhances just about everything else. Now that’s something we can all get on board with.
