New Retailers Tie in with Jöttnar

Jöttnar has confirmed the addition of several new retail partners for its mountaineering, winter climbing and all-mountain skiing clothing. The new outlets include The Climbers Shop in Ambleside, Needle Sports in Keswick, Fjällsport in Sweden and Klifra in France.

It follows the launch of Jöttnar's extended Winter 2014/15 range, just 12 months after the British brand made its debut. Four new products have been added to the range including waterproof and breathable outerwear, hydrophobic down pieces and innovative next-to-skin base layers. New colour options have also been added to the original items across the range, all of which are being continued.

Tommy Kelly, Jöttnar co-founder, said: "It is extremely satisfying to see the new range becoming more widely available through carefully selected specialist and independent retailers.

"Jöttnar will continue to work closely with its original retail partners - Up and Under in Cardiff, Mountain Leisure in Perth and Trekitt in Hereford - while seeking to expand its footprint in Europe and the US. The entire range will also continue to be available directly from the Jöttnar website."
