Such seemingly different countries as Russia and Finland, in fact, have much in common. We are united not only by the love of hockey and hot steam, but also by cold, snowy winters. In Finland, the production of warm clothing, including down jackets, is very well developed. Finnish down jackets are very highly valued in Russia, as they can withstand even the most severe frosts.
One of the most famous Finnish companies producing outerwear for fluff is Joutsen. We will talk in detail about the features of the products of this brand, about the materials used and the best models of Joutsen down jackets in today's article.
A little bit about the brand
The now popular Joutsen company was once just a small family business - a sewing workshop that specialized in tailoring.
At first it was only feather-beds, pillows and blankets, and then outerwear was added to this list. Interestingly, the idea of creating such an enterprise was visited by its founder Marius Pedersen when he watched his wife washing feathers in a sauna.
The company was founded back in 1936. 80 years after the first products of the new brand saw the light, Joutsen is one of the largest manufacturers of down jackets and bedding for down not only in Finland, but throughout Europe.
The fundamental principles of the company are the highest professionalism of its employees and the unconditional quality of products. Compliance with these principles is the main reason that Joutsen products have managed to gain the trust and love of a huge number of customers in many countries, including Russia.
Materials and insulation
Joutsen is known for its responsible approach to selecting materials for its products. Preference is given to natural raw materials mined or manufactured in Finland. Both fabrics and down jacket fillers have excellent performance characteristics.
As the upper layer of down jackets and coats, a special microfiber is used, which passes air well, repels moisture and reliably holds the filler inside the product.
It is a lightweight yet very durable fabric. Joutsen Down Jacket Filler is a 100% swan fluff that makes things incredibly warm, but almost weightless.
All materials used in the production of Joutsen down jackets go through several stages of quality control in the company's laboratory. For example, the ability of products to withstand sub-zero temperatures is tested in a specially equipped freezer.

Selection tips
The range of Joutsen down jackets is very wide, so in such a variety of choices it is easy to get confused. It is important to know for what purposes and for what time of the year you plan to purchase this thing.
Lightweight models are suitable for late autumn and early spring, and for the winter it is recommended to buy "full" down jackets: they are heavier, but also warmer.
If you travel mainly by car, it will be more convenient for you in cropped down jackets, jackets or vests.
Those who walk or ride public transport should pay attention to long downy coats and short coats.
An additional advantage is the presence of a detachable hood or a large collar.
