Materials & Technology
G-1000 Fabric Construction
The Vardag G-1000 Pile Jacket is constructed from Fjallraven's iconic G1000® fabric. Renowned for its exceptional durability and adaptability, this densely woven material is made from 65% recycled polyester and 35% organic cotton. This fantastic fabric is ventilating, hardwearing, weather-resistant and with the right care can withstand a lifetime of adventures, making it the perfect companion for a life outdoors. G1000® is so reliable and trustworthy, Fjallraven has been using it since 1968!
However, the magic of G1000® doesn't stop there! G1000® materials can be adapted to different personal preferences or climatic conditions using Greenland Wax. The wax allows you to customise the fabric's properties, such as wind and water resistance and breathability, in certain areas or across the entire garment, allowing you to adapt the jacket to suit each season.
Greenland Wax is easy to apply - you can literally do it anywhere! If you'd like to learn more about how to apply it correctly, check out our short YouTube tutorial by clicking here.
Recycled Polyester Fleece Lining
The jacket is lined with a thick, soft pile fleece, made from recycled polyester. This cosy lining adds everyday comfort, whilst helping to trap heat around the fibres to help keep you warm on cold days.
This recycled polyester fleece is mainly made of recycled post-consumer PET bottles and sometimes unusable fabric offcuts and trims from factories, helping reduce air, water and soil contamination and waste that would otherwise be going to landfill.
Features and Functionality
Relaxed Fit with Raglan Sleeves
The Vardag G-1000 Pile Jacket features a comfortable, relaxed fit with raglan sleeve construction for freedom of movement across the shoulders. This helps to keep the jacket feeling comfortable, especially when layering with chunky jumpers throughout the colder months.
Practical Pocket Layout
For storage, you'll find two zipped hand pockets and a zipped internal pocket that offer space for keeping your daily essentials safe and easily accessible throughout the day.
Adjustable Cuffs and Hem
Adjustable cuffs and bottom hem allow you to refine the fit, whilst also helping to seal in the jacket's warmth and keep cold winds out, keeping you feeling comfortable and warm in blustery conditions.
Durable, Repairable Design
In true Fjallraven style, the Vardag G-1000 Pile Jacket has been built to last. It's been designed with easily repairable details to allow you to repair the jacket should it become damaged over time, rather than replace it. Created from Fjallraven's iconic G1000® fabric, it's highly durable and built for a lifetime of use.
