Fjallraven (Swedish for arctic fox) was founded in 1950 by Åke Nordin. Åke's products and fabrics quickly became coveted among climbers and outdoorsmen. One of those climbers was Hasse Hellström, one of Sweden’s foremost experts on Greenland and a member of the glacier researcher group, Friluftsfrämjande. Åkes and Hellström set out on an expedition to Greenland in 1966. The group asked Åke if he could provide them with some tents and backpacks. Needless to say he did. The expedition resulted in the launch of the Greenland Jacket, or as Åke wrote in the 1968 product catalogue, “The perfect jacket for hikers and climbers. Used by Hasse Hellström, the well-known Alpine climber and Greenland expert “. After a few adjustments of the tent fabric, the waxed fabric was called G-1000. (G- for Greenland.) Today it has evolved into a comfortable, durable, functional material with unusually high breathability.
