For the “I-don’t-want-to-wear-a-scarf!” kids When Grandad, from the heart of the Swiss Alps, talks about “Gnägi,” he means exactly this shirt: high-cut, long sleeved, with a collar and a short zipper in front. But unlike Grandad’s shirt, namuk’s Honu is made from the finest, mulesing-free Merino wool, so it performs not only for romps in the woods but all kinds of adventures.

Available in 2 colorways, including True Blue (shown above) and Sunset Rose.

If clothes could tell tales, namuk’s new trousers model Rush would probably be a bestselling author.

Icon reversible PrimaLoft vest

This jaunty vest, which can be so wonderfully combined with all kinds of clothing and easily slipped over a T-shirt, sweater or jacket, has a twin. An opposite number. A best buddy. And that partner is hiding very close by: one shake, and the PrimaLoft vest turns its insides out and reveals its second identity. When reversed, large pockets are available to collect and store all kinds of things. Turned inside out again, all the treasures disappear from prying eyes. With a small cord and an integrated secret compartment, even the smallest and most valuable objects stay in their place. No matter which side you wear it on: The vest’s soft and recycled Primaloft insulation keeps the body comfortably warm, while the reflective threads, woven in 360° throughout the vest, ensure visibility from every side. Here, less is more means: two vests in one.

Available in 3 colorways, including True Navy / Bluebalu (shown above), Gemini / Sunset Rose, both with with “Galaxy” graphics and Gold / True Navy with “Underground” graphics.
