They're trying to convince outdoor people in non-Scandinavian countries that the brand is top of the line. It's not. As with most other brands that makes a lot of different things (tents, sleeping bags, boots,backpacks, clothing etc.) the quality varies a lot. Some of their stuff is good, some is mediocre. If going for a serious expedition to rough mountain areas or the higher peaks, I would never consider looking at Haglöfs.
