The Devold Arktis is a modern interpretation of Norway's legendary Nansen sweater, designed for those who value heritage craftsmanship with contemporary versatility. This unisex wool jumper offers the perfect balance between traditional warmth and everyday wearability.
What Makes the Arktis Different from the Nansen Sweater? While the iconic Nansen sweater is known for its thick, chunky knit construction ideal for extreme cold, the Arktis presents a refined alternative. This sweater features a softer hand feel, thinner profile, and increased versatility that transitions seamlessly from outdoor adventures to urban settings. The result is a wool pullover that works as both a mid-layer for hiking and a standalone piece for casual wear.
Pure Norwegian Wool Construction Crafted from 100% pure new wool sourced from Norwegian sheep, the Arktis delivers natural performance benefits without synthetic additives. The wool fibre naturally regulates your body temperature across varying conditions, keeping you warm in cold weather while preventing overheating during activity. Its breathable structure allows air circulation while the moisture-wicking properties transport perspiration away from your skin, maintaining comfort during dynamic movement.
Classic MŽlange Design The Arktis features a timeless flat-knit construction in a mŽlange colourway - a heathered blend of tones that creates visual depth and texture. This multi-tonal knitting technique gives the sweater a robust, lived-in aesthetic with contemporary appeal. Comfortable ribbed cuffs and hem provide structure and help retain warmth without restricting movement.
Who Is This Sweater For? Originally designed for fishermen and workers facing Norway's harsh coastal climate, the Arktis now appeals to outdoor enthusiasts, travellers, and anyone seeking sustainable, long-lasting knitwear. The unisex sizing accommodates various body types, though women may prefer to size down for a more fitted silhouette.
When and Where to Wear It Perfect for temperatures ranging from -5¡C to 16¡C (23¡F to 50¡F), the Arktis works as a layering piece under shells for cold-weather activities or as standalone outerwear during milder conditions. Ideal for hiking, camping, travel, casual office settings, or weekend wear.
Care and Durability Machine washable at 30¡C on wool cycle. Wool's natural odour-resistance means the Arktis requires less frequent washing than synthetic alternatives. Store flat to maintain shape. With proper care, this Norwegian sweater will provide years of reliable performance.

Devold Size Guide
The size guide indicates what body measurements will fit the garments as they are planned to be worn. Individually one may choose a smaller size for a tighter fit or a bigger size for a loose fit. Devold underwear and accessories are generally made in elastic materials, mid-layers in more stable qualities. The garment measures will differ according to the elasticity in each quality and intended fitting - the size guide refers to body measurement for correct fit.
A few precautions
- When bust/chest measures indicate different size than height, follow the bust measurement
- When hip and waist indicate different sizes, follow the hip measurement
- When height indicate two sizes more than width measure, we recommend to chose the size in between.
