New Favorite Jacket
This jacket is amazingly functional and I love the adaptability! The fit is relaxed but very well fitted for athletic builds. I love all the pockets and pouches and the functional sleeve buttons. Truly my new favorite jacket!!!

Great quality, looks and practicality.
Excellent. Well designed and great quality. It’s quite loose and has space to wear layers underneath. Very practical and looks great. The zipper at the side provides good ventilation and access to pocket of any garment you wear underneath. Can be waxed to retain its water resistance.. Got a feeling this one will have longevity.

Not fit for purpose, not waterproof
I bought the Vardag anorak, when I first wore it in the rain it allowed water to penetrate the garment, I bought some wax and applied it as per the recommendations, this didn't work either, it's very expensive for a rain coat that actually doesn't stop rain from soaking your clothes and skin underneath. Pretty useless and not fit for purpose, money wasted do not buy!

Well Designed, Well Made
I’ve had this anorak for nearly 2 years. Wear it often Autumn through to Spring but not on super cold days -0 or colder.. Features are excellent. A real hood! So many jackets the hood is a an afterthought. This is large enough for proper coverage, I usually wear a cap (the excellent Vidda) underneath which helps shape, and I can easily fit full over-ear headphones in there too. Great kangaroo pocket, side pockets with one with additional space for keys. Side zipper for on/off and venting. Definitely NOT waterproof, but with layers of Greenland wax I can get it showerproof. Out today for 2 hours in on/off light rain and only very slightly damp at shoulders. Extremely good in winds, and very breathable despite waxing. So what you wear either over/under this is important. You can get of course get it damp through but still stay nice and warm which is more important for me. Most Gore-Tex and similar jackets I’ve experienced usually get damp either way, and you feel like you’re walking around in a giant non environmentally friendly crisp packet, whereas the Vardag feels more natural and comfortable. I’m normally an XXL or bigger (6, 4” and large build), but this is just an XL (Olive colour) and for me, still plenty room underneath to layer, long enough sleeves and back. I like the press studs for sleeves and storm flap, all good. I’m not keen on the issued zipper tags, lost them within weeks, so put my own ones on, but I can see they are used to reduce use of plastics. I’ll simply recycle them to use on something else in years to come I’m sure. This was my first Fjallraven jacket, and I also now have the Vardag Padded version (for really cold weather) and Abisko Lite which I will review in time.

Stupid hood
I received this anorak as a gift. What idiot designed the hood. No volume adjuster on a ridiculously large hood, even with a woolly hat underneath. I can’t see where I’m going with the hood up. I have a Gutulia Anorak that I have had for many years, it is a vastly superior product, sensible hood with a draw cord and volume adjuster on the back of the hood. TheVardag Anorak just seems to be thrown together with no thought put into it except to do it as cheaply as possible. Very disappointing.

My goodness, my Vardag
My new anorak arrived today and I'm over the moon with this thing. The quality is apparent immediately. As well as the nostalgia and timelessness. I can already see it 20 years from now faded and beaten but still looking for the next adventure. What an amazing bit of kit. Anyway, on another quick note, I wanted to touch on the sizing. I'm 6ft tall and 210lbs with a muscular build, 34 waist, 48 chest. A size large is more than big enough to layer under without being too baggy with just a t-shirt. Hope this helps someone.

Great piece of kit
Usually an XL in shirts, bought a Large and it's very roomy/comfortable to allow layers underneath. Great pockets to carry binoculars, books, map, food, etc. Waxed to improve weather proofing. No complaints.

Crazy how there is no review yet
Very well designed for the most part besides the hood not having a back adjustment so it could sit over your eyes if you have a short neck/not a lot of hair volume. It would be great if they added buttons on the back of the head like the wrists. Be warned the side zipper for ventilation and putting it on/off is only on one side, not both, this isn't exactly an issue but just a heads up. Love the 2 front main pockets with a hidden stretchy mesh inside one and the button closures making it very long-lasting. the front zipper is very deep and so is the side meaning ventilation is never an issue. The arm buttons have a good spacing between them so they fit most wrists and all-in-all the jacket is very good. Very baggy for a size small, meaning it's good for layering, I have a athletic torso so it's baggy at the bottom and mid but barely fitted at the top. If you are not as v-tapered you could probably fit a puffer inside without it being too tight, for me I'll stick with fleece because of spacing issues but that's just personal.

Not a good as expected!!
Great styling, great value (so we thought), bought for my son to wear whilst travelling to Uni. Today was his first day and as it was a bit windy and rainy decided to give the jacket an outing. Very disappointed when he text me saying his arms and shoulders got soaked. Not what I would expect from a product stating its weather resistant, should come with subtext stating do not use in rain!!
