Men's Greenland Water-Resistant Hooded Jacket
Product details
Web ID: 8156227Great winter jacket!
After purchasing my first Fjallraven jacket last summer (a Raven), decided I'd like to get a winter jacket from the brand as well. I initially looked at the Skogso to have a different style from my Raven, but I had some fit issues in both M and L. I tried on the Maroon and Navy Greenland Winter in the brand store in my city, and was tempted to buy it. But ultimately after watching some review videos online, I went with the Deep Forest and really like that colour. The fit of the jacket is great (5'9, 190lbs, bought a Large). I have ample room for layering, and use a down vest and merino base when winter temps get really cold here in Ottawa, Canada. Depending on windchill and conditions, the jacket is comfortable to about -15C or colder with a good mid layer. For either really windy conditions or temperatures around -20C for longer periods of time, I'd probably choose a parka, but the Greenland Winter is perfect for everyday use in the city, and outdoor activities for a few hours at a time in the cold. I like the snaps. Would prefer a metal zipper, but no issues after the first winter of use. Can't comment on wet conditions, but otherwise looking forward to many years of use!

Warm and comfortable
Very warm jacket, perfect for extreme temps. Great fit, warm lining. Looks great on. So much warmer than the standard Greenland, tend to just wear base layer, t shirt and light top under it.

Almost perfect
Forth piece of Fjallraven kit. Bought this piece from a well known UK online retailer. Love it 😍 5'11" medium build with a mid-life spread and it fits like a glove.

Sleeves are a bit short for big shoulders
I just got it, so I can't say much as to the longevity of the product. I live in a place with very little precipitation, and water resistance isn't my biggest need (I have a Deb for that). I'm surprised how light this is compared with a stolen Carhartt parka I had that has since been discontinued. I like the fit, the black can be an outdoors coat, and still double as a coat for more formal days at church with a tie. I'm leaving 4 stars because I'm 5'11" (180cm), 215 lbs (97kg) with an athletic build, and a 44" (111cm) chest, ordered an XL, and while fit in the chest feels pretty good, if I raise my arms, it's snug in the back, and about 2" (5cm) of my wrist is exposed. It's snug around my backside, but not a bad fit. I actually like that it prevents too much airflow up my midsection. For more active movement, unzipping from the bottom makes it very useable.

Poor fitment
Poor fitment. Ordered a Medium as I had the chance to try on a Skgso in that size and fit well. Ordered the Greenland Winter in M and its too tight at the thighs. Upper body and mid torso is okay as are the arms. Reluctant to exchange for a L as I previously returned a Sormland that was akin to wearing a bed sheet. No idea what is going in with the cuts and sizes frfom Fjallraven but my adice is do not buy unless you can try on the specific jacket you want. Very disappointed.

Dealbreaker because of the hood
I like this jacket and have had it for 3 years. The hood is a deal breaker rendering the jacket unusable for the very reason I bought it. Considering returning or getting rid of the jacket.
