A 100% NORWEGIAN ORIGINAL
The Pile jacket might just be the most Norwegian outerwear invented in modern times. The very first fibre Pile was developed as an insulating mid-layer by Helly Hansen in the early 60's; a sophisticated technology with one of the highest warmth to weight ratios available, an instant favourite by workers.
With the knowledge we now possess on environmental challenges, we’ve used two years and quite some iterations to conclude our version. Unlike the original, and in respect to our surroundings the SERAC® pile has a high ratio of organic and bio-degradable materials and the shape based on our unique SERAC® DEM™ construction safeguards an optimal fit and full freedom of movement. As the 60’s polyester version, the high loft of our Italian made 700g wool fabric and the space between its fibres allow for great insulation, comfort, and breathability.
The wool pile is our first product launch in the new Made to Order - only - model. A model we know for sure to eliminate overproduction.
fit
The SERAC® DEM™ construction gives the Pile a wide upper back allowing great freedom of movement. Unlike the TLine and DeTour™ the wool Pile comes in sizes ranging from 1-3 and the relaxed fit gives lots of flexibility in layering. This style has wider sleeves and body than any other SERAC® style without being oversized. Check the chart and be guided by the images to find your size.

NYGUARD®
NYGUARD have innovated the zipper manufacturing production process creating Ny2Life. A zipper completely made of one single sustainable material and designed to be recycled, and recycled, and recycled, and recycled.....Ny2Life BIODEGRADABLE zippers are entirely made of Amni Soul Eco® Biodegradable Nylon. Developed by Rhodia Solvay, Amni Soul Eco® is the world’s first polyamide with enhanced biodegradability. When disposed in landfills Amni Soul Eco® degrades in around 5 years, while other synthetics fibers take 50-100 years to decompose. Oposite to more conventional zipper solutions, the teeth of a Nyguard zipper are stithed to the woven tape, making it re-pairable and super flexible in use.
