About us

Our story

Winter wear for people who would rather be outside.

Vinterra started in 2014 in a rented unit in Aspen, with one pattern cutter, two ski guides and a jacket that kept failing at the cuffs. Today we are a small team of designers, machinists and repairers, making shells, down and wool that are tested for a full season before they go on sale, and mended for as long as you own them.

Tested

Every piece spends a full winter on working mountain guides before it reaches the shop.

Honest materials

Traceable down, recycled shell fabrics and merino from farms we can name.

Mended, not binned

Zips, cuffs, seams and down: the studio repairs anything we have ever made.

How a jacket is made

Design. Test. Build. Repair.

  1. Step 1

    Design

    Each season starts with the guides' notes: what leaked, what rubbed, what they never took off.

  2. Step 2

    Test

    Prototypes go up the mountain for a full winter. Most come back with a list.

  3. Step 3

    Make

    Seams are taped, zips are bonded and every jacket is checked by hand before it is packed.

  4. Step 4

    Mend

    When something wears out, it comes back to the bench instead of going in the bin.
