A long cold weather coat designed for the Nordic winter: long, damp and windy
Developed in Estonia by Huppa, the Gudrun long coat is made for winters where the cold comes with damp. It pairs 400 g/m² Eco Down insulation, a fill of recycled polyester fibres with a loft close to down, with a 5,000 mm waterproof, 10,000 g/m²/24h breathable membrane. Its long cut covers the thighs and blocks the wind where a parka stops.
Worn as a 3rd layer, it goes on over everyday clothes or a fleece thanks to a satin-touch lining that slides over the layers beneath. The waist has an elastic toggle drawcord that shapes the silhouette and closes the way in for cold air. Sizes S to 3XL, i.e. EU 36 to 48 on the manufacturer's chart.
Features: detachable hood fastened to the collar with press studs, removable faux-fur trim, two-way zip that opens from the bottom for sitting down, ribbed cuffs, reflective elements on the fabric.
Grand-Froid expert's view
Turku, late January, −14 °C / 7 °F and a damp wind off the harbour. A long coat changes one thing people underestimate: the thighs. Standing at the bus stop, sitting on a frozen bench, you stay warm where a parka stops. Open the bottom zip before you sit down and the coat neither pulls nor rides up. Length insulates as much as thickness.
What is it designed for?
A long winter coat designed for Nordic life in damp cold and long waits outdoors.
- Everyday life in the cold: city commutes, easy cycling, waiting at the stop in sub-zero temperatures — the two-way zip adjusts the room for the legs
- Stays in the North: Tallinn, Helsinki, Turku — daily outings in a damp cold that lasts from November to March
- Daily walks: forest, frozen seafront, towpaths — the length shields the thighs from the wind
- Wet snow and cold rain: north-east France, Normandy, Scotland — Eco Down keeps its loft where down collapses
- Long spells seated or standing: Christmas market, stand, bench — the two-way zip opens from the bottom, the coat covers the legs when seated
Thermal protection
Eco Down is a fill of fine fibres that trap air the way down does, with one advantage: synthetic fibre does not collapse when it gets damp. At 400 g/m² it forms a thick layer of air around the torso and thighs: you stay warm in wet snow and in dry cold alike. The outer fabric blocks the wind, the membrane keeps water out and lets vapour through, and the waist cord and ribbed cuffs close the air gaps. The comfort range runs from 0 °C / 32 °F to −20 °C / −4 °F; the lower end assumes a merino base layer and a fleece underneath. The coat insulates the torso and thighs: hands, head and feet need their own protection.

Care & Durability
- Machine wash, delicate cycle, mild detergent, no fabric softener
- Before washing: close the zip, remove the hood and the faux-fur trim, turn the coat inside out
- Wash only when visibly dirty: the membrane and the fill wear with every cycle
- Air dry or tumble dry on low according to the label, never on a radiator
- Between washes, steaming refreshes the fabric without stressing it
- Off season: store clean and dry on a wide hanger, without compressing the insulation

Why choose this Huppa Gudrun women's winter coat?
Because it combines what a damp winter asks of a city coat: thick insulation that does not mind the rain, a length that covers the thighs, a membrane and a two-way zip for living seated as well as standing.
The three-layer system:
- 1st layer — base: next to the skin. Captures body heat and moves perspiration outwards.
- 2nd layer — mid layer: insulates and holds warm air around the body. Fleece, knit or thermal top.
- 3rd layer — outer (role of this product): shell, softshell jacket or padded gilet. Blocks wind and holds warmth. In sustained rain, a hardshell takes over.
Down insulates better dry, recycled fibre still insulates wet: in a damp winter, it is the second that gets you through the day.
* Indicative temperature. Perceived warmth varies with activity, body type, humidity, wind and the layers worn underneath.
