Scandinavian Outdoor and Metsä/Skogen, with contributions from customers, partners, and our own team, have started raising funds for the Finnish Natural Heritage Foundation. Our primary goal is to protect Finland’s diverse forest nature.

You too can help ensure that life in Finland’s forests, shores, and wetlands remains diverse. The Finnish Natural Heritage Foundation offers a direct, tangible line to conservation efforts. The Metsä/Skogen clothing line is designed from a love for diverse forests. By wearing items from this collection, you join a community of forest friends. 10% of the collection’s proceeds go to the Elämää Ulkona forest conservation through the Finnish Natural Heritage Foundation.

The shirt’s print uses water-based WBI (Waterbased Ink) inks, meeting all sustainability and ecological standards. The prints feel soft and don’t trap heat, unlike transfers or plastisol-based prints. Printing screens are cleaned with an environmentally friendly screen-washing machine.
