66°North and District Vision Team Up for Epic Winter Running Collection
Get ready to conquer the cold with the ultimate winter running gear from 66°North and District Vision. The two brands have joined forces to create a collection that will have you looking and feeling like a true Arctic explorer.
The collection, set to launch on October 23, is a must-have for any serious runner. It includes technical outerwear, performance running apparel, and signature eyewear models like the Keiichi and Eiichi. But this is not your average running gear – it’s built to withstand extreme conditions without sacrificing style.
According to the press release, the collection is described as an “Arctic-grade exploration kit” that will keep you warm and protected no matter the weather. And with a heritage-inspired Tindur Down Jacket, you’ll be channeling the first Icelander to summit the north face of Everest in 2013.
But the standout piece in the collection is the Tindur Down Jacket, which comes in a version with heritage-inspired patches. This high-performance down jacket is engineered for Arctic conditions with GORE-TEX Labs Windstopper face fabric and filled with 800 fill-power goose down for maximum warmth-to-weight efficiency. It also features a detachable hood, extended collar, water-repellent finish, and a microfiber-lined eyewear pouch to keep your lenses scratch-free.
And let’s not forget about the accessories. The collection includes two signature eyewear models – the Keiichi and Eiichi – with shatterproof polycarbonate lenses, oleophobic and anti-reflective coatings, and the D+ Photochromic lens for seamless light adaptability. There’s also a heritage-inspired Tindur Down Hat, designed to securely carry eyewear, and ultra-insulated trousers built to endure Arctic extremes.
This collaboration perfectly combines District Vision’s ethos of mindful living with high-performance sportswear and 66°North’s legacy of functional durability. “Since its founding in Iceland in 1926, 66°North has always been about creating gear for survival – and this partnership with District Vision embodies that heritage,” said Helgi Óskarsson, CEO of 66°North.
So mark your calendars for October 23 and get ready to take your running game to the next level with this epic winter collection. It will be available online and in select stores, so don’t miss out on your chance to snag these must-have pieces.
