THE GREATEST EXPLORER OF ALL TIME
Conqueror of the North West Passage
First man to set foot on the South Pole
First man to circumnavigate the northern hemisphere
First man to fly across the Arctic Ocean via the North Pole First man to reach both the North and the South Pole First successful flight from Europe to America
Behind these amazing achievements is a man with skills and values unequalled in the history of exploration:
ROALD AMUNDSEN (1872-1928) Many men have attempted these feats and failed. The reasons for Amundsen’s success were his thorough planning, his outstanding navigational skills, his urge to explore the unexplored, his accuracy, his unique leadership skills and above all his refusal to accept the status quo.
Jørgen Amundsen, founder of Amundsen Sports, is greatly inspired by his relative Roald Amundsen. Our premium quality garments for skiers, mountaineers and explorers are different, reflecting our unique approach inspired by the Roald Amundsen legacy.
