Norrona Lyngen Ski Touring Collection Review

You may not have heard of Norrona, but you should, as its reputation is rapidly growing. In Europe, Norrøna is a well-known outdoor apparel brand thanks to its Norwegian roots. We tested their Lyngen Ski Touring Collection, specifically the Norrona Lyngen Gore-Tex Jacket, Norrona Lyngen alpha100 Zip Hood and Norrona Lyngen Flex1 Light Pants. Which, in our minds, makes up one killer ski touring kit. 

After 25 years of backcountry skiing, I’ve learned that the optimal touring kit doesn’t revolve around heavy shells and a down jacket. While GORE-TEX® fabrics are excellent for protection, I prefer a waterproof jacket paired with breathable softshell pants. Read the full review here and find out why.
