The expedition's success established Devold as the gold standard for expedition-grade outdoor clothing.
Why High Neck Design for Extreme Cold The high neck (turtleneck) provides critical protection for the neckÑone of the body's most vulnerable areas for heat loss. Extended collar shields against wind, snow, and cold air.

Benefits include moisture-wicking, odour resistance, breathability, flame resistance, and decades of durability. Features ribbed cuffs and hem, pre-washed for softness.
