The AKTIV II builds on everything that made the original a trusted choice, now updated with a durable recycled ripstop outer while retaining the dependable warmth needed for demanding days in the mountains. Filled with ethically sourced, RDS-certified 700 fill power down in a 90/10 down-to-feather ratio, it delivers exceptional warmth for its weight, making it well suited to winter hiking, alpine pursuits and cold-weather adventures where every gram in your pack counts.

Designed for life in the mountain environment, the insulated hood features an extended collar to help keep the elements at bay when exposed to biting winds, while internal adjustments allow you to fine tune the fit without compromising visibility. The streamlined cut layers comfortably beneath a shell or works equally well as a standalone outer layer in cold, dry conditions, adapting easily as the weather and terrain change.

Highly compressible and easy to stow in its own pocket, the AKTIV II takes up little room in your pack until the temperature drops. Battle tested for everything from frosty valley starts to high altitude ridgelines, it delivers reliable warmth without unnecessary bulk, giving you the confidence to keep moving beyond boundaries.

    The overall weight of the garment. Lower ratings indicate heavier, more robust gear designed for extreme weather, while higher ratings mean lightweight options ideal for packability and speed-focused activities.
  • 3
    How effectively the fabric allows moisture and sweat to escape. Lower ratings suit low-output activities where warmth is the priority, while higher ratings are better for high-intensity activities, reducing overheating and condensation inside the garment.
  • 4
    How much warmth the garment provides. Lower ratings favour breathability and mobility, while higher ratings mean maximum warmth for extreme cold, often using high-loft down or synthetic insulation.
  • 2
    The garment's ability to keep water out. Lower ratings are for water-resistant or showerproof materials that handle light rain, while higher ratings signify full waterproofing with sealed seams and durable water repellent (DWR) coatings for prolonged exposure.
  • 3
    How well the garment resists wind penetration. A lower rating means the fabric allows some air movement for better breathability, while a higher rating indicates a near-complete wind barrier, reducing windchill in exposed conditions.

Great jacket!!!

I love this jacket! I fits great and it's warm - I live in Saskatchewan Canada where the temp can drop to -45C. I usually have an issue with shorter than desired sleeves, but this jacket is perfect! The only thing I should have thought of is that the orange trims will show dirt. I wish I had bought the blue/burgundy version but all is good.

Very good and warm could do with drawstrings at the bottom around the waist would be beneficial i believe the hood is slightly abit too big and the peak has to much down in and is too big it would be better with less down and a but of wire going through the oeak to keep the shape

Just what I wanted to replace my ageing RAB. Seen good service but needed a new one and the price / value for money made the Fjern a no brainer. Very please with quality, fit just a little too big but not worrying about that. Only improvement would be a wired / stiff hood brim. Big positive is the pocket stuff sack… something RAB need to bring back with their current models.

Mens Aktiv Jacket

I’ve had this jacket about three weeks now and initially I thought that the jacket was a little thin. During the last couple of old spells I wore a tee shirt, thin jumper and this jacket and was surprised how warm it was. There was no wind blowing through the jacket and the temp was warm and never got too hot. I particularly liked the elastic waist and cuffs which help retain the heat. Good jacket that at this early stage seems to be a well made.

Quality coat

Really pleased with the coat, feels high quality, light and warm…only issue is the delivery was a few days late, with poor comms about when it would arrive…some of which might have been down to Royal Mail, but took some of the shine off!

Superb quality. Comfortable and very warm. Hood is easy to adjust to stop it blowing down in the wind.
Not a Fjern jacket before, but I will definitely be having more.

Men’s aktiv 2 down hooded jacket rust and charcoal

Was very pleased when i received this jacket, the color was very nice, it looks well made, and fits me perfectly, it feels warm when out in cold weather, and looks good when wearing it, it’s spot on, hopefully it will give me good service, bought another one in a different color, as the price was good when I bought the two jackets, I like these jackets for the color schemes, as I had looked at the Rab equivalent jackets, but they look so dull now, and at the time I purchased these 2 jackets, 1 RAB jacket was double the cost, and no better constructed than these FJERN jackets, I would give one of these ago if your looking for something different that not everyone else is wearing 👍

Excellent

The first thing you'll notice about this jacket, apart from how light it is, is the quality. Keeps you warm, and not bulky at all. I'm 6'1, and would be broader across the shoulders but a large was just right. Good length on the arms and goes beyond the waist too. Space as well to layer up underneath. Pockets are deep with good quality zips. This is my first item I've gotten from Fjern and will definitely come back for more.

How do I pack it so that it looks like the penultimate picture?

Fjern

It packs into its own pocket. Turn the right pocket inside out, fold the jacket into it, then zip it closed.
