In October, I reviewed baselayers and socks from Woolpower, a Swedish outdoor company that makes baselayers, midlayers and more. Today, I’m happy to introduce two additional products from Woolpower, along with a giveaway for adults.
Woolpower’s Kids Collection
Looking for a gift your child can wear every winter day? Look no further than the Kids Vest 400 from Woolpower.
Available in four colors, this full-zip vest is an extra layer on cold days, an additional bit of insulation under a shell on warm days, and a comfy, cozy layer to wear at home or at school.
The Kids Vest 400 fits kids ages 1 to 10. The sample we got for our friend Henry is a size 7-8 (his age) and while both his mother and I thought it looked small in the box, it fit him perfectly. His mom reports that since Henry has had the vest, he’s barely taken it off. And ski season is just beginning.
Prefer something with sleeves? You can also get Kids full-zip jackets in the 400 weight fabric.
The Color Collection
My holiday pick for adults is the Full Zip Jacket 400, from either the Color Collection or the Ullfrotté Collection. Made of Woolpower’s heavier loopy wool-blend, these jackets look good, feel great and add extra warmth on their own, or as midlayers.
Jackets in the Color Collection are available in four solids with contrasting zippers. Color Collection jackets are cut straight across the bottom and have reinforced cuffs, with no thumbholes.
Jackets in the Ullfrotté Collection come in solid black, grey, green or navy. These jackets are longer in the back than the front and have reinforced cuffs with thumbholes.
My husband has a solid grey jacket and he is quite pleased with the slim fit and the overall feel and warmth. He thinks the jacket fits true-to-size.
Please note that all of these jackets have double thickness collars with the Woolpower logo knitted in.
Giveaway Details
Woolpower is offering one lucky winner their choice of an adult 400g jacket from either the Color Collection or the Ullfrotté Collection.
To enter, please leave a comment. For a second entry, like Woolpower on Facebook, or follow them on Twitter or Instagram.
One winner will be chosen randomly from all entries on Wednesday, November 30, 2016.
Good luck!
To facilitate this post and review, Woolpower and Lon Gundie provided sample products. As always, all opinions are my own and are exactly what I would tell my family and friends.
This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Trish!

The Ullfronte looks perfect for chores on the ranch. I would love that. Does it come in ladies sizes?
braveskimom says
The sizing is Swedish and while some items are female specific, mostly the sizes are unisex. That said, you can definitely find your size in the Ullfrotte line!
Roberto A. Fabrega says
Saw it advertised while visiting my brother in Sweden. Wool is our new winter addiction. Following on the FB as well. Buckhil’s fake snow is finally covered with the real stuff. Happy turkey day.

I am loving these jackets and would be a great field tester. Ski, snowshoe, packpack, I’d put that baby through the paces. The champagne/petrol and black/lt. green are beautiful.

You would indeed be a great tester and you’ve got the right idea: turn this midlayer into an indispensable garment!
