This year 66°North marks 100 years alongside the Icelandic nation. To celebrate, we have created a capsule collection celebrating 10 styles – 10 decades. Each style represents an iconic product introduced in that decade. Whether that’s the classic fisherman’s anorak from 1926 or our most versatile shell jacket from 2011 - Snæfell.

1956-1966

The warmth beneath the shell. A celebration of Icelandic knitting traditions and the wool sweaters traditionally worn beneath protective outerwear. The Bylur is one of 66°North’s best-known knitwear styles. Bylur is a wool cable-knit sweater with round short rib collar and ribbed hem, crafted from 100% soft lambswool. Featuring a full self-coloured jacquard pattern, it has a light feel while providing natural warmth and comfort.

The 100-Year Capsule brings the 66°North archive into the present; the collection reflects the changing needs, technologies and styles that have shaped 66°North. The design team worked closely with the company’s extensive archive, selecting pieces that capture significant moments in the brand’s history and creating modern updates. Many of these products are still part of the brands collection today, now reimagined with new tweaks and updates.

Each capsule piece also features a specially developed woven label containing information about the style and the decade it represents.
