Ása Steinars is a photographer and a good friend of the brand. She grew up surrounded by fascinating landscapes and the forever-changing weather in Iceland.

Her favorite place to travel in Iceland is the highlands and her most-used 66°North product is Hornstrandir Gore-Tex jacket.

"It’s perfect all year round and always comes with me. In winter for skiing and summer for hiking. It’s perfect as it protects well for wind and rain, but at the same time is light to pack. I also really like the length of it, the model is a bit taller than regular jackets." says Ása about Hornstrandir jacket.

Eydís María and Benjamin are both photographers and travel a lot because of their work, both around Iceland, where they live, and also to more exotic places. Coming from different backgrounds the couple looks forward to creating their own holiday traditions by mixing their two cultures together.

Benjamin uses his Tindur down parka the most, because it is very light but at the same time very warm. Tindur is also very packable and easy to have in the backpack while hiking. Eydís uses her Jökla Parka the most because it can be used in very different circumstances, whether it's in the Arctic or here in Iceland.

Facing the possibility of complete paralysis at the age of 19, Fanney Þorbjörg’s exceptional mindset has brought her to a place once considered impossible. Today, Fanney Þorbjörg plays football, frequently goes skiing, and runs ultra-marathons. This year she is going with her family on a ski trip to Kitzbuhel in Austria where they will celebrate Christmas.

Fanney uses her red Dyngja down jacket the most. "I use it a lot every day during winter and also for outdoor activities such as skiing or hiking. Skaftafell also comes strong for winter activities and for everyday use in the rain." says Fanney.
