Why We Love This Deal
Around Labor Day, Men’s Journal found a rare deal that made the Fjallraven Skogso Jacket, an absolutely sporty jacket that gets the Nordic look of its designers just right, over half off. That deal is long gone, but honestly, it might be a good thing. You see, REI’s annual Holiday Sale is now in effect, and the winterized version of the jacket is having its moment in the sale’s spotlight.
The Fjallraven Skogso Padded Insulated Jacket is now 30% off through the end of REI's sale on Nov. 24. It’s the cold-weather edition, so to speak, of the Skogso line, and that means you’re going to get a ton of value out of it this season if you get one now. It's available in five excellent colors, and right now, a full run of sizes is still in stock, though we expect some to sell out over the next week.

This Skogso comes pre-waxed for rain protection, blocks wind, and has a thick inner padding that will keep you warm without suffering from a lack of ventilation. Whether it's a dry cold or a damp one, the Fjallraven Skogso Padded Insulated Jacket will provide a boost of warmth with its specially formulated insulation tech. The jacket is hooded, too, providing a snug and adjustable enclosure for the back of your head.
The jacket’s styling and colorways, which range from a fall orange to a dark navy that straddles the space between blue and green, ooze with Swedish charm and were picked to look just right in nature. It’s the kind of jacket that would pair well with a day pack behind it and a walking stick in hand. That doesn’t mean it won’t be great for your inner city bus stop walk, but there’s no doubt that this one yearns for the woods.

What Shoppers Are Saying
One shopper, who felt that the jacket was so warm that you wouldn’t want a sweater underneath unless you were experiencing sub-zero temps, said, “The padding is nice and the exterior is rugged.”
Another wearer humorously posted a photo of themself in the jacket, showing three mechanical keyboards in the inner pockets. They said, “Great jacket, it could easily fit four keyboards in the pockets, but I only had three at the time.”
The Fjallraven Skogso Padded Insulated Jacket at $255 is going to provide a lot of value for your money this winter, and more winters for several years to come. Just make sure to pick one up before the end of the sale on Nov. 24.
