Great Jottnar quality but very small!

Excellent Jottnar quality I’ve come to expect but I would say the sizing seems significantly smaller than my other Jottnar garments which are mostly shells and down jackets. I would recommend going a size up!

Nice active base layer, came up a bit snug, no miracle cooling

Ordered in the sale, based on the spec of active cooling. I am known to generate a lot of heat and moisture when I am active, I am yet to find a layer that really cools/wicks. I was hoping for a miracle (maybe). Ordered a small and a medium based on the sizing charts my dimensions sit on the cusp of these sizes, turns out the medium feels snug and after a run, is difficult to get out of. The forearms also felt a little tight (but I am also a climber so hmm).

Ran with it "exposed" and under a light weight waterproof running jacket.

Did I feel the active cooling, hmm, maybe, felt "cooler" than my basic mesh fabric (technical fabric) tops from other companies, with cool areas on the chest and arms from the breeze, when worn as the only layer. Under a "breathable" waterproof, less so (but expected as the waterproof shell would prevent/reduce air flow).

The inside of the fabric seems to have horizontal striped weave of different thicknesses, which I assume is what is supposed to allow/promote cooling and is very thin (see through when held to the light), which so far has proved to be robust, but have noticed stitching stress noises when trying to remove from a sweaty torso!

Love the colour and matches nicely with my other Jottner garments. Love the hood nice under a helmet and to take the "chill" of my ears when running :)

Verja Hoody

Great base layer, good fit and good temperature control with this hoody.

Verja hoodie

Very light weight, well made top. Had to return first order due to size being “ athletic” to say the least! spring or summer wear only for me as it is light. If ordering I would order one size up

A must have!!

The Verja has been a great addition to my kit. I tested it on a 3482m peak with changing temperatures at different altitudes and throughout It regulated my body temperature really well.
