The Original Down Skirt
When Swedish designer Sissi Kewenter cut up her old down jacket to create the first Skhoop skirt in 1999, she revolutionized winter comfort for women. Born in the mountain village of Åre, where temperatures regularly plunge below -20°C, this women-owned brand has perfected the art of combining warmth with style.
Innovation in Every Skhoop Skirt & Vest
The signature Skhoop down skirt transforms winter wardrobes with its ingenious design. Sleek, stylish, and far from bulky, these skirts offer maximum warmth with minimal bulk – perfect for everything from après-ski to winter dog walks. Their insulated vests complement the skirts perfectly, creating core warmth without restriction.
Year-Round Scandinavian Style
While renowned for their cold-weather innovations like down skirts and vests, Skhoop's Swedish sophistication shines in every season. Their full collection includes everything from summer dresses to technical pants, each piece reflecting two decades of thoughtful design. At Aktiv, we're proud to showcase their signature winter pieces alongside their versatile year-round clothing – all crafted with the same commitment to style and functionality.
