Jäken

Jäken is a traditional Finnish jacket, known for its distinctive design and craftsmanship. It is typically made from wool or other warm materials, reflecting the cold climate of Finland. The jacket features a high collar, long sleeves, and a button-down front, often with a single button or a series of buttons. The design is often symmetrical, with equal lengths on both sides of the body. The jacket is commonly worn with traditional Finnish clothing, such as the loden (a woolen coat) and the haka (a woolen shirt). It is also popular among tourists and fashion enthusiasts for its unique aesthetic and practicality. The jäken is a symbol of Finnish culture and heritage, and its production often involves traditional techniques passed down through generations. Today, jäken jackets are produced both by traditional craftsmen and by modern manufacturers, ensuring their continued presence in Finnish fashion and culture.
