Napapijri
Napapijri is the Italian outdoor brand that turned functional mountain gear into a streetwear icon. Known for bold colour-blocking, technically superior fabrics and a design language that sits comfortably on a city commute as much as a hillside, Napapijri has been a staple for those who refuse to choose between style and performance.

20-22�� Thermo Puffer Long Jacket - Black
Founded in Aosta, Italy in 1987, Napapijri takes its name from the Finnish word for the Arctic Circle: a fitting tribute for a brand built around serious weather protection. The brand made its name with the Skidoo anorak, a pull-over windproof jacket that became a cult item across Europe through the 1990s and has never really gone away. Today, Napapijri continues to blend Italian design sensibility with genuine technical credibility, producing outerwear that earns its place in both alpine conditions and urban environments.
The brand sits at a meaningful intersection: it is neither purely a performance outdoor label nor a fashion house. That balance is exactly what draws a loyal following amongst people who want gear that genuinely works but also looks considered and intentional.
- Heritage silhouettes: Napapijri jackets are design classics that have remained relevant across decades, updated seasonally with new colourways and fabric improvements without losing their identity.
- Technical fabric innovation: Napapijri invests heavily in material development. Their Infinity range uses recyclable mono-material construction, and many pieces use ECONYL® regenerated nylon, making them a strong choice for buyers who care about sustainability alongside performance.
- Weatherproofing you can trust: Wind resistance, water repellency and thermal management are built into the core construction of every outer layer.
- Colour and design: Bold, clean colourways and a distinctive logo placement make Napapijri pieces immediately recognisable without being loud. The aesthetic has genuine crossover appeal across outdoor, streetwear and everyday lifestyle.
- Versatility: A Napapijri jacket works equally well for weekend hiking, festival season, or daily wear in a northern UK city. That year-round utility makes it a worthwhile investment.
Napapijri's range covers far more than the outerwear the brand is best known for. At its core sits a strong lineup of jackets, from pullover anoraks and packable windbreakers through to more technical shells built for demanding conditions, all carrying the same recognisable aesthetic.
Beyond jackets, the brand has developed a solid midlayer offering, including high-pile fleeces and insulated gilets that work as standalone pieces or sit comfortably under a shell. When the weather warms up, Napapijri's casualwear range includes lightweight shorts and printed t-shirts that bring the same attention to detail into a more relaxed setting.
