Product details
Product description

The Särmä Outdoor Jacket is made for use in somewhat rougher climates and terrain but is comfortable and subdued enough for casual street use. For sunny hikes on easy trails consider something else, as this is made from a strong canvas to take a beating without a flinch.

This product is discontinued as part of our Project MEGA. We will not replenish it. If you want this product, it is time to hit that add-to-cart button.

  • Almost all-weather general purpose canvas jacket
  • Designed first and foremost to be functional
  • Key features hood, high collar, front zipper closure
  • Pick one size larger if you want a lot of room for several warm layers

The question is, can a canvas jacket be comfortable to wear on the move, and does it breathe? The answer to both is a resounding "YES!". Thanks to the articulated elbows, ventilation in the front and back, and stretchy underarm gussets, this jacket won’t hold you back.

Breathability and mobility are further improved by the 4-way stretch material we used at the armpits. You can think of the main material as an armor plate and the soft stretchy stuff is the mail armor.

The cut is unisex, we have hit the sweet spot of female and male anatomies. Try it on if you don't believe us!

I was looking for a relatively simple and sturdy outdoor jacket, without an inner liner, and I wished for a rather robust, canvas-like material. It should not be too heavy-weight also. While this one was in clearance sale, I took the chance and was not dissatisfied. It soon became one of my favourite outdoor jackets for hiking in the autumn and for gardening/working in the garage. It is also o.k. for going to work, when the weather is windy or somewhat rainy. The jacket was treated with environment-friendly waterproofing-spray (also from Varusteleka), so it will better withstand rain. Medium-long was just perfect fit (186 cm, 78 kg). The quality and overall construction seems to be good, no problems here. The zippers work very well, the pockets are roomy, the hood is relatively large (maybe for use with helmets).

I've been after a general purpose jacket for some time. Something a bit normal looking, so pub friendly, but still retaining useful features, like decent pockets. This fits the bill perfectly. I'm a bit of a fatty, 44 chest, belly a little larger, and the Large fits well. If I was expecting to layer it more, I'd want an XL. I have a smock from another manufacturer, and it's simply too baggy, too many pockets, and just looks a bit too army, so I don't wear it much. (I did consider the Sarma smock) I'm also coming away from waterproof jackets. They are too sweaty, and unless you are genuinely out in heavy rain all day you just don't need one. So at the end of the day, this jacket turns out to be a "Goldilocks" type thing. It's not too big, or too small. It's not too warm, or too thin. It's got just the right amount of pockets. It's just really good. Buy one.

This jacket is amazing value, and this is coming from someone who owns around 5 Fjallraven jackets. I have this jacket in black and not only is it functional it is really stylish.. Well done on this garment, I wish I had picked up a green one as well.
