Unusual PostNord Swedish postal/courier workwear jacket, produced in 2018 and finished in a striking combination of bright blue and navy with white and reflective detailing.
This is genuine PostNord employee/work uniform outerwear, designed for practical outdoor use by postal and delivery staff rather than as a standard retail fashion jacket. It has a lightweight but substantial 100% nylon outer, with a polyester lining and breathable mesh lining inside.
The jacket has a full-length front zip and an attached adjustable hood with toggle drawcords, together with a high neckline for extra protection from the weather. There are three useful zipped pockets to the front – two lower pockets and a vertical chest pocket – with contrasting bright blue zip pulls.
Reflective visibility detailing runs around the jacket, including the distinctive wide patterned reflective band around the lower front and back and narrow reflective/white piping across the chest, back and sleeves. The cuffs are adjustable with hook-and-loop tabs and the back has a slightly longer curved hem, giving extra coverage when working outdoors or cycling.
The neck label reads “PostNord – Dam – XS”. Dam is Swedish for women, so this is officially a women’s XS rather than a men’s jacket. However, it is generously cut compared with a typical women’s fashion XS, as would be expected from practical workwear intended to allow movement and clothing layers underneath.
I would suggest it looks approximately equivalent to a UK women’s 8–10, depending on the desired fit and layers worn underneath. It could also potentially work as a smaller men’s/unisex jacket, but buyers should check measurements for their preferred fit.
A really unusual piece of Scandinavian postal workwear which would make a practical jacket for cycling, walking, commuting, delivery work or general outdoor wear.
