Schöne Jacke mit kleinen Verbesserungsmöglichkeite
Super Jacke für mich. Wer aber etwas Regendichtes will sollte zu Shelljacken greifen. Meine begleitet mich in Touralltag und auf Festivals. Frisch gewachst hält sie auch kürzeren Regenschauern stand. Ich habe die Greenland in schwarz. Ein Paar Sachen habe ich verbessert. Eine Einstellmöglichkeit an der Kapuze und einen Druckknopf mehr an den Ärmelenden. Da großen Lob an den Fjällräven Support. Mir wurden Druckknöpfe und ein Stück Stoff extra zugesendet. :-) Bisher schneit mir die Jacke robust und zum Layern super. Wenn man sie wachst fühlt sie sich etwas steifer an. Bei breiten Schultern und zum Layern würde ich eine Größe größer empfehlen.

This one will last a lifetime
Although not all Fjallraven items last a lifetime, this one just might. Elegant enough to take to work and wear as an outer layer over a sweater for a nice dinner. However when it needs to take abuse, it takes that abuse like a champ. Highly recommend it. Other competitors just don’t have the same quality to compete with this bad boy.

best farmer's coat!
I am surprised by how much I appreciate this old-school jacket. It is extremely durable; very comfortable and quiet; and has a beautiful timeless design and style. I have been wearing the Skogso as my everyday jacket- and bought this one on sale as a work/barn/farm jacket. I must say that I love it so much I almost hate to only wear it on the farm! That being said it is the best farm coat I have ever had- I use it in every season, with wool/down underneath in the New Brunswick winter. A note on the waterproofness of wax-treated G-1000- one can greatly increase the waterproofness (and durability) of G-1000 with wax treatment (and although a bit tedious, if you enjoy looking after/maintaining fine things, it is actually fun!). That being said, no one wold claim it is as waterproof as a modern (and toxic) synthetic waterproof-"breathable" material. But, G-1000 breathes better than any modern synth rain jacket; and (this is rarely mentioned) G-1000 drys incredibly fast- even while wearing it. For me the pros of G-1000 greatly outweigh it being less waterproof than a synth jacket. I am not going to the moon- both I and my clothes can dry by the fire; in the sun; or even walking on the trail. This is a superb jacket. Though I have never owned one- this jacket sure looks very close to the Vidda Pro- surely the Vidda Pro is based on this design?

Great jacket, but poor redesign
One of the classic bits of outdoor kit, but a disappointing redesign. I own 7 Fjallraven jackets including the previous gen Greenland and the new one is good but has a strange tight hem. I've never known a jacket fit so tight at the hem. It's the same size as all my others, but an odd fit. The hood redesign is poor too - it's now bulky and boxy. Then the cuffs were resized - either too tight or too loose. So, still a classic, but the resizing give it an odd fit (you'd probably need to size up) and have made the jacket les pure and simple.

My New Favorite Go-To Jacket
After six months of use, I thought it was time to write a review of this jacket. I purchased the Greenland Jacket in the fall, so now after seeing three of the four seasons it's best suited for, I can say it was an excellent choice for various reasons. First, its durability. It's functioned well in both heavy rain and snow. I've had to reapply the wax coating three times (the first attempt was a failure). I would not advise using a hairdryer to melt the wax. It's both time-consuming and results in an uneven blotchy look. Go with an iron, apply light even layers of wax and you'll find the outcome far superior. Once I used this method, I was satisfied with the overall outcome. The Greenland Jacket will work very well during the shoulders seasons as well as the wintertime. Second, it's a great choice for layering during the colder months. I'm 6'0'' 185lbs and a large will fit well as a single layer (jacket only) as well as an outer layer with a down insulation layer under the Greenland. I've owned (and still own) various shells and this in now my go-to outer layer in the winter months. It provides moisture protection and the features I both wanted and discovered I didn't know I wanted! The four large button pockets are great for storage, easy to access when wearing gloves, and blend well with the overall look. I also found the front two-way zipper to be a great option for venting when heat dumping becomes necessary. The only small complaint is the zipper can sometimes be difficult to start, but nothing that would make me reconsider this product. Lastly, it's a stylish timeless look. There's a reason this design has been around for decades, its functionality as well as the timeless look. So in terms of both function and style, this is near the top of any choice out there. After buying the Greenland and now six months in, I can say it was a great choice and I think most anyone would agree.

Just what I wanted
Does what I hoped, goes on easily over wool or fleece. It’s tough enough to repel bramble, roses etc but fits comfortably. Very practical outdoor jacket then.

Great traditional jacket
I bought this jacket recently. It’s exactly what I hoped. Durable and protective enough to withstand brambles, hawthorns etc. Comfortable to wear, good pockets, good fit and able to protect very well against wind and showers.

Truly a jacket for life.
Bought mine in about 1980 and am still wearing it today. Comfortable, light, windproof. Perfect for layering. I suspect I'll have it all my life. What a great bit of kit!

Great whether about town or on a winter Scout camp
I have been wearing this jacket daily for nearly 6 months and so far has stood up to any activity. Work, town, or a recent wet Scout winter camp. The jacket is hard wearing and a great fit. I went with unlined so it can be a true all year jacket, adding layers underneath in the winter. I am 6 foot 2 inches and medium build. I bought this in large to allow plenty of layering options. Fits great and doesn't look baggy when worn with just a t shirt. I recently gave it a good waxing with Fjallraven's Greenland wax (rubbed on and used a hairdryer to melt it). This kept me dry for the most part, although had some limitations after a full day of constant rain - this is to be expected. Much better durability than a gore-tex jacket, and much better for the environment (and potentially my health). I expect this will see me through many more adventures to come.
