Nate says, "that's where the Scandinavian companies just shine. They are so focused on the utility of the garment. There is a saying, there is no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing. And that is as close to a motto for Norway, Sweden, and Denmark as you can get."

 

Today we interview Nate Axvig, Co-founder of Aktiv. Aktiv represents clothing that is built to endure and last. It is your view of the durable, functional designs of Scandinavia. Timeless Classics.

 

We discuss:

 

* His gratefulness for starting the business with his wife and the support his friends and family gave him
* Overview of the brand
* Origin of the brand: what led up to starting the brand
* Starting the brand and testing the concept over the web
* Focusing on well made, classic clothing
* Why there’s no such thing as bad weather, just bad clothing
* How they fared during the pandemic
* Why they opened a physical store
* Their primary material: Wool
* Plans for Aktiv

 

Join Ramon Vela and Nate Axvig as we break down the inside story of StoryFile on The Story of a Brand.
