Meqqusaalik is the first-ever Greenlandic outdoor brand designed by people of the Arctic for all-weather protection.<\/p>

As Greenlanders, our survival skills and intuition in extreme conditions are part of our DNA.
We are always prepared for the unpredictable, and ready to use our skills to read nature\u2019s signs and solve practical challenges. But we also know there are more things in heaven and earth, and sometimes we need protection against dark forces. <\/p>

Which is also why we knew that Greenland\u2019s first-ever outdoor brand would not only need to stand up to some of the most extreme weather on the planet but also protect against things unseen \u2013 whatever awaits out in the wilds. Which is why we named our brand after the ancient spirit guide: Meqqusaalik, who cared for humankind. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Meqqusaalik is designed for real-world use. This is why our first anorak styles were tested in collaboration with modern hunters and fishermen, who subjected the garments to extreme weather, hunting and everyday wear and tear. They gave us their feedback, and we adjusted the design. The result is the anoraks we sell today, along with the many other outdoor wear styles designed to be worn in the wilderness, on the harbour and everywhere else as protection against the elements. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

MODERN QUALITY AND ANCIENT KNOW-HOW<\/h2>
\n Wearing Meqqusaalik, you are protected by state-of-the-art textiles and ancient know-how refined by our ancestors for thousands of years. Sealskin and furs have been replaced with textiles like PrimaLoft, pure merino wool and high-performance wind and waterproof materials. While the weather, forces of nature and hazards are the same as ever. <\/div>\n \n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

THE SPIRIT LIVES ON<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tInuit legends recount how angakkuit shamans invoked the protection of the benevolent Meqqusaalik spirit guide before venturing on spiritual quests into the hazards of Greenland\u2019s inland ice. They were given patches of Meqqusaalik\u2019s magical plumage to protect them on their expeditions into the vast unknown. That spirit lives on in every single Meqqusaalik garment, as a modern amulet providing protection against things unseen. So, whatever awaits out in the wilds, you\u2019re protected by Meqqusaalik, as long as you respect the forces of nature and draw on your skills and intuition.\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
