The Rachel Pohl Collection
You loved it. It sold out in record time. Now it’s back, reimagined.
Artist and adventurer Rachel Pohl hand-painted the Lofoten peaks in the pinks of a winter sunrise and the blues of the Arctic night. From soft merino base layers to cozy fleeces, beanies, mittens, tubes and socks, it’s the whole collection, made for your coldest, brightest days.

Hot Girl Winter
We started in 2002 with a simple idea: Base layers should never be a compromise. From day one, we’ve done one thing - and we’ve done it better than anyone else: We’ve kept women hot.
By our definition, being hot is more than body temperature. More than appearance. It’s a feeling and a way of being.
Like Kari herself has been an example of:
It’s hot to provoke. It’s hot to perform under pressure. It’s hot pushing your mental and physical limits.
It’s hot to be unapologetic. It’s hot to be you.
In Kari Traa base layers, you don’t just stay warm,
you’re encouraged to do whatever makes you feel hot.

- Ebba Forsgren
“People underestimate female skiers so much, especially when it comes to the energy we create and how much we’re capable of lifting each other up.”
