New Haglofs Winter Clothing arrived in Peebles

Haglofs Map Beanie
New in the Peeebles branch is the Haglöfs Map Beanie £25, a knitted reversible activity beanie with excellent thermal properties and minimal pack volume. Knitted in a lovely soft merino/acrylic blend this cap feels like a comfort blanket for your head. The simple no-seam hems minimise bulk and the flatlock seams ensure comfort. It has quite a deep crown, so can be worn loose or snugly with the hem turned up to the desired height. The care labels inside are bar-tacked in place- so once you’ve read them, they are simply removed in order to reveal the reverse colour pattern. Sweden recently banned by law the sale of merino wool products sourced from sheep that have undergone the controversial procedure of Mulesing- so the source of the merino wool in this hat is Mulesing-free.


Weight: 55 g (size M)

Colour: deep red/mellow red

Fabric: 60% Merino Wool (Mulesing free) 40% Acrylic

Haglofs Barrier Vest


The Barrier Vest £70, needs no introduction, having been a staple in our Winter range for a number of years- this season’s stock has just arrived in Peebles. This light, warm and highly packable vest is highly wind and water resistant thanks to the outer shell of Performac™ 1001 a 30-denier mini ripstop weave with low weight and bulk which is constructed to be downproof and fiberproof and has a DWR treated surface. The vest features elasticated sleeve openings and hem and two handwarmer pockets, of which one also works as a stuff sack for the vest. The synthetic insulation, provides just the right level of insulation and compressibility so that the vest can act as an excellent extra layer, stored in you winter rucksack ready for when you need it.

Weight: 270 g (size L)

Colour: black

Haglofs Barrier Jacket


Alternatively the Barrier Jacket £90 combines the same fabric features in a full-sleeve version with articulated elbows and the luxurious detail of cuffs in Polartec® Power Stretch®. (The cuffs are soft and comfortable and don’t take longer than the rest of the jacket to dry if they get wet) There are two handwarmer pockets with zips and a zipped inner pocket that can also be used as a stuff sack for the jacket

Weight: 465 g (size L)

Colour: black


Haglofs Boiga Hood Jacket

Haglöfs make some of our favourite softshells with their own Flexable™ range of fabrics being particularly well-suited to the British climate in the balance of insulation, wind/water resistance and breathability they offer. The new Boiga Hood £135 uses Flexable™ 447, a midweight, durable soft shell fabric with excellent 4-way stretch, uniquely developed by Haglöfs to incorporate the system of shell and insulation in one fabric. The durable, wind resistant construction is highly breathable, as well as snow and water shedding thanks to the PFOS/PFOA free DWR finish. The closed mesh knit backer offers next-to-skin comfort with low friction. These properties combine to ensure that you can stay out longer before you need to reach for your waterproof shell jacket and the non-membrane construction means that when, as seems to be inevitable in the British winter, you do need to wear a waterproof over the top the performance of the breathable properties of your waterproof shell are not compromised. In the Boiga, this fabric technology is combined in a functional multi-purpose hooded soft shell jacket for all-round all-year use with 2 hand warmer secure pockets, 1 secure outer chest pocket and full front zipper with wind flap. There’s a single-hand cord adjustable hem and articulated sleeves. Like the Barrier Jacket it features quick-drying Power stretch® cuffs, this time with integrated thumb grips. Available in men’s and women’s versions in two fantastic rich Haglöfs colours, the green (pictured) for women and a deep cobalt blue for men

Weight: 630 g (size L)

25 years on...still going strong

In November 1992 we were working hard to get our shop in Peebles opened. We were living in a draughty old shepherd's cottage in the Moorfoot Hills at the time and one day, our landlady remarked that there was a famous mountaineer coming to give a fundraising talk in aid of the village hall. It seemed unlikely but yes, Chris Bonington was coming to Carrington. It proved to be a memorable evening that people still occasionally mention to us today. Standing room only with an eclectic audience of school children, Women's Institute stalwarts, elders of the kirk and a smattering of outdoor enthusiasts. It probably wasn't the kind of gathering Bonington was used to speaking to but his professionalism and communication skills ensured that his stories came alive for everyone in the room. At the end of the presentation we joined the scrum of autograph hunters and got his signature on a poster which we hung in our new shop on the day it opened. It stayed on the wall for quite a few...
