Shorts that'll take whatever you can throw at them

No-one does shorts quite like Amundsen, and these are just about the toughest ones in their, ahem, arsenal. Built in a rugged cotton twill, the fabric has been enzyme-washed for a distinctive faded look and a feel that's a lot softer than you might expect. The worn-in look and slightly roomier cut compared to some of their other models combines to make a pair of shorts with serious retro good looks. And of course, they're incredibly practical too. A handy touch is the double-folded front pockets that give you two compartments for the price of one – and of course they've also got the signature Amundsen features like a knife loop, Norwegian flag detailing, and coin pocket in faded red waxed cotton

  • Sustainability through Longevity: While the biggest polluters in the outdoor industry compete to make the most noise about recycling and other green initiatives, Amundsen focus on what matters most: fewer products. Through the use of quality materials, technology and craftsmanship, Amundsen continuously make sure your timeless and versatile garments last for generations.

• Amundsen clothing 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.
