About the company
Astrid Wild is a Nordic outdoor wear brand designed for female shapes. We design & produce outdoor clothing with a great fit and Scandinavian style, delivered Direct to Consumers.
We struggled finding outdoor outfits & felt that existing brands are outdated and not made for women who are interested in fashion. Outdoor clothing has traditionally been designed for men, and then made smaller and colored pink, to fit women. We're about to change this - join us!
