2 A guide to Sweden’s unforgettable midsummer celebrations Nobody does midsummer like the Swedes. A friends and family gathering lubricated by beer, herring and shots of the local firewater. Whether you’re goofy or regular, it’s the one day of the year that everyone casts aside their daily routine and goes back to the land.

3 At CHPO we make watches and sunglasses that reflect who we are and the life we live.

Always inspired by our Scandinavian heritage and our roots in skateboarding, music and art.

This collection combines the simplicity and minimalism of Swedish summer and the fair colours of the north and the warm of the south.

We are also proud to say that some of our new and best-selling sunglasses are now 100% made out of recycled PET bottles. Hell yeah!

So if you want to party like a Swede, here is an essential guide to surviving midsummer!

Escape to the country Most Swedes escape the city for their midsummer fun, heading to the family summer house on the coast or staying in a cottage by a lake to get close to nature. Nature and alcohol are the main ingredients for the perfect midsummer.

Make your own krans The symbol of midsummer is the krans, a headband of summer flowers entwined around soft birch branches. Children head out to the fields in the morning to gather fresh flowers and no midsummer outfit is complete without your very own personalised crown.

According to Swedish folklore, you should place seven types of flowers under your pillow midsummer night to dream of your future lover.

Learn the frog dance By mid-afternoon crowds are gathering in parks and on village greens to watch the annual midsummer dance around the midsummer pole.

Children in traditional dresses clutch their parents’ hands while local teenagers, resplendent in their finest summer garb, exchange flirtatious glances as the accordion player strikes up a rousing chorus of folk tunes.

Bystanders may be dragged into the ensuing series of line-dancing style displays, culminating with the quintessential midsummer routine — the squatting frog dance.

Eat strawberries After the build-up of the afternoon, it’s time to get down to the serious business. An evening of celebrating with traditional food and drinks.

23

The essential three-course supper includes a starter of three types of herring, served with crème fraîche and new potatoes, followed by cuts of meats or tofu, served with tomato salad and a deliciously tangy smoked mayonnaise.

And no midsummer celebration is complete without fresh strawberries to finish. All washed down by local firewater and cheap smuggle beer from Germany.

Dance again Midsummer is all about being together with friends and family and reuniting for one weekend of the year. And by the time the lights softens and the fresh breeze of summer blows across the al-fresco gathering, the schnapps will be in full flow.

By this point, expect dancing and hearty singalongs to The Hellacopters or traditional folk tunes played on the accordion.

It’s a rare moment in time when nobody has a care in the world and all feels right in life.

Welcome to Sweden!

Nuno Nuno Nuno Nuno Nuno

Nuno Santana Almeida is our sales agent in Portugal, and he has been with us since day one. When we were no more than an idea and a lookbook he took a chance on us, and for that we are forever grateful!

And just like Nuno, this watch is a great companion when surfing.

At our headquarters in Stockholm we have two Johanna’s. Confusing for us, and everyone working with us. And to make it even a bit more confusing we decided to name our new watch after our two Johanna’s.
