Most orders are processed within 1-2 business days and our warehouse in Minnesota ships orders out Monday through Friday. If you place an order after 3 pm on Friday, it will not ship out until Monday. The delivery speed quoted for any express shipping modes (e.g., 1 business day) refers to the speed at which the carrier (e.g., UPS, USPS) can guarantee delivery after it exits our warehouse. We cannot guarantee next-day delivery for any orders, but always work as fast as possible to get you your items.

Our warehouse is closed on weekends. Orders placed after Friday afternoon will not ship until the following Monday at the earliest.

We offer free shipping on all orders over $100 that are shipping to the contiguous US. Our standard shipping rate for orders under $100 is $10. For those of you who can’t wait to get out and explore winter, we have some faster options. Enter your address at checkout to see pricing options.

If you need to cancel your order, please reach out to our team at service@askovfinlayson.com and include your order number in your message. We cannot guarantee being able to stop your shipment, as your order may already be in transit. In the event that your order has already shipped, we can provide a shipping label for returning your package.

We search globally for manufacturing partners based on their commitment to ethical and sustainable practices as well as their technical expertise. Our parkas and vests are made by Unico Global in Bac Giang, Vietnam.

We are making social responsibility an important requirement as we grow our product line and expand our supply chain. As a certified B Corporation, we prioritize the need to treat people – our employees and the people who make our products – fairly and be accountable for their wellbeing.

Our goal was to find the warmest, most sustainable insulation possible for our outerwear. Turns out it didn’t exist yet. Our parka was the first to use 3M™ Thinsulate™ 100% Recycled Featherless Insulation, remarkable for its performance and sustainability. It retains heat even when wet – unlike down, which does not. That same insulation is also used in our vest.

Our parka shell fabrics are treated with a C6 DWR (durable water repellent) 80/20 finish, which means it retains 80% of its water repellency after 20 washes. C6 is a grade of DWR that breaks down faster in the environment and with less toxicity to humans and wildlife than the former industry standard C8, but it’s far from perfect, and we’re exploring the full elimination of PFCs across all our products going forward. The same shell fabric is also currently used along the hem of our Preservation Vest.

We love to truly embrace winter – to engage completely in what’s in front of us. But it’s not always easy. So we added an extra envelope to our parka that blocks cell and WiFi signals to a phone while its inside. No damage to the device, just ancient technology with a pretty modern application. We call it going into Present Mode, and we highly encourage it.

The social cost of carbon is an estimate of the monetized damages caused by a one-ton increase in greenhouse gas emissions in a given year. It includes direct consequences, such as health problems from breathing dirty air, and the broader impacts from climate change, such as extreme weather and sea level rise. The exact cost has been the subject of much debate, but after consulting with outside experts in academia, business, and environmental advocacy, we’ve chosen the cost agreed upon by the Biden administration: about $51 per ton of carbon. We’ll continue to reevaluate and let you know about our progress on this front. You can read our latest climate impact report via our Journal.
