First guys to review the wool version! I was looking for this for a while. Thanks! - I was over in Fairbanks for a couple weeks back in 2011 for work, haha! Cheers!!
Did you find the wool lining to be itchy at all? (or does it have another soft lining over the wool)? I used to have a couple wool sweaters and always found them too itchy unless i was wearing long sleeve tshirts underneath
Do you think someone slightly over 5ft 9in will fit the small, or should I go for a medium size..? I will not be needing much of a second layer underneath where I live probably, like your green underjacket.
Alex has a muscular build, so you could go with a small. The main thing to keep in mind is the length of the jacket on your arms and how far down you'd like it to reach.
This depends on the use and personal preference to a certain extent. While the two are fairly interchangeable, the Skogso has synthetic insulation vs the Vidda pro's wool insulation. The Vidda pro is heavier by 270 grams. The Vidda also has more pockets across the front, giving it a different look and, perhaps, more utility if you're going to use all the pockets. The pocket placement on the Skogso makes its pockets easier to access with a backpack on. So really it comes down to how you will use it and which of these is important to you.

What’s the difference between this jacket and the singi wool padded parka?

Which jacket do you prefer between the Vidda Pro padded and the Skogso padded jacket?
Hey! I have both jackets. Both are wonderful and warm. But I think Vidda Pro wool padded jacket is better and warmer. It also has better pockets.

Hi. Great review. Does this jacket have gear webbing loops in the bottom pockets same as non wool version of Vidda Pro?
Hi. Unfortunately, no
I am 6ft 210pds which size so you think will fit me the most comfortably?
Large
Doing reviews with a filter is not a good idea
