About the Kilpi Brand
We accepted the challenge of the North and created the brand of outdoor clothing and accessories Kilpi. They are tested by the North – its wildness, pride, and uncompromising demands of a land of mythical heroes. If you want to truly experience winter, you must be prepared. Kilpi means "shield" in Finnish. Where nature and homes have already built their defense, you need yours too. Rely on Kilpi clothing and accessories. They will be your shield, keeping you safe and protected.
For the winter season, we offer high-quality ski wear, which ranks among the most trusted apparel produced by Kilpi, appreciated every year by skiers both locally and abroad. But it's not just downhill skiing apparel – we also cater to ski mountaineers and cross-country skiers. We use top-tier Japanese Dermizax membranes in our premium men's Hastar jacket and women's Nalau jacket. We also utilize high-quality SIBERIUM materials that offer a water column of up to 20,000 mm.
You love challenges that test your skills to the limit. Adrenaline-filled rides down the steepest slopes are not enough – you want to go even further. You enjoy unimaginable heights, solitude, and silence, where the only sounds are your heavy breathing and the pickaxe cracking the stone. Kilpi will be with you on the plains and on the cliffs, supporting you at top speeds and dizzying altitudes. Whether you're heading out for a calm cross-country ski tour or ending the day with friends at your favorite spot, we’ll dress you for every moment – even for those quiet times. If you spend cold mornings fishing by the water, Kilpi clothing will keep you comfortable while you wait for your catch.
Whether you're with family or alone, the North is beautiful. We've combined the mythical beauty of the untamed North with uncompromising quality. Because winter in the North is the winter of Kalevala. Mythical figures and their messages come alive in the atmosphere of Nordic winter, setting their own rules. We'll dress you in a way that lets you enjoy even a traditional Kalevala winter and turn it into an unforgettable experience. Kilpi helps you realize what truly matters: the satisfaction of overcoming yourself and the joy of sharing extraordinary moments with those close to you. These moments will be yours alone. So make the right choice – our clothing will support you wherever you go.
Improving the quality of Kilpi sportswear and continuous technological development is our priority. To stay two steps ahead of the competition, we involve elite athletes from the Kilpi Racing Team in the development of our technical gear. These athletes thoroughly test each product to ensure we offer only apparel that withstands extreme stress, while also contributing innovations, ideas, and tweaks that make Kilpi gear highly valued by both professional and amateur athletes.
The Kilpi range includes complete gear for winter and summer, accessories and small items. You’ll find apparel for nature and the city, for sports and for moments of rest. We’ll equip you with functional and stylish jackets, perfectly fitting pants, technical underwear, and fashionable T-shirts. And when icy winter gives way to hot summer, you’ll be ready for the water with our swimsuits and other summer essentials.
In our summer collection, you’ll find cycling apparel, primarily consisting of lightweight and breathable jackets, cycling jerseys and shorts, T-shirts, socks, and gloves. Our 2021 Kilpi summer line also caters to running enthusiasts. We offer high-quality running wear: breathable and lightweight jackets, pants, T-shirts, and functional socks. Both collections provide unique apparel with comfortable fits, premium materials, and a wide array of practical features. We develop our apparel in collaboration with athletes, who not only suggest innovative design elements but also rigorously test every piece. As a result, you receive a product that’s high-quality, comfortable, and functional – helping you enjoy every moment of movement to the fullest.
Outdoor clothing must first and foremost be functional and reliable. The foundation of quality Kilpi outdoor apparel lies in careful craftsmanship, refined details, and the choice of the best technologies. Our advanced Siberium® material has undergone more than a decade of development. Siberium® uses a layered laminate principle, offering strength, breathability, and flexibility. Thanks to these properties, our winter and softshell jackets can replace several layers of clothing.
Siberium® materials provide reliable protection against the elements and unrestricted comfort in motion. The many Siberium® variants guarantee you’ll find the perfect jacket for your activity. Key features of our premium material include unmatched wearability and maximum functionality even in extreme conditions. And Kilpi goes even further. The Japanese-made fabrics we use, from the nearly 90-year-old company Toray, are the absolute pinnacle on the market. For maximum confidence both on and off the slopes, select Kilpi products feature the Recco avalanche rescue system.
