History
Hardanger is a modern reinterpretation of a Dale of Norway jacket originally introduced in the late 1990s, bringing a familiar Norwegian design back for a new generation.
Its name comes from the Hardanger region south of Bergen, Norway, celebrated for its spectacular fjord landscapes, mountains, and springtime fruit blossoms. The connection reflects Dale's longstanding relationship with the landscapes and traditions of western Norway.
