Purchasing a winter jacket is an investment in warmth, comfort and style. But are you faced with the choice: do you go for a practical mid-length jacket, or do you make a statement with a powerful long-length parka?
At ZUMO we understand that the length of the jacket makes a big difference to your look and functionality. That's why we compare two of our top models this season: the ZUMO Skog (Mid-Length) and the ZUMO Arnesen (Long-Length). Read on and discover which length best suits your lifestyle and wardrobe.
The ZUMO Skog: Stylish and Practical in Mid-Length
The Mid-Length jacket, like the ZUMO Skog, usually falls over the hips and is the most versatile choice for the modern man. The Skog combines a sporty look with a sleek, contemporary fit.
The Advantages of Mid-Length
Maximum Freedom of Movement: Ideal for men who are often on the go, cycling or driving. The jacket doesn't get in the way, so you always stay flexible.
Perfect for Layering: The length of the Skog is excellent for combining with longer garments such as a hoodie or a longer T-shirt, without the jacket looking unnecessarily 'heavy'.
Universal Match: The Mid-Length fits with almost any outfit, from casual jeans and sneakers to smart trousers and Chelsea boots.
Design and Functionality of the Skog
The ZUMO Skog is designed with functionality in the Dutch winter in mind. These are the features that make the difference:
Rain-Repellent Fabric: The Skog is treated to effortlessly repel light rain and snow, keeping you dry and comfortable.
Double Zipper: Essential on a mid-length jacket! The double zipper (which can be opened from both top and bottom) provides extra ventilation and flexibility, especially when sitting.
Side Pockets: Perfectly placed side pockets not only provide warmth for your hands, but also safe storage for your phone or keys.

The ZUMO Arnesen: Warmth and Statement in Long-Length
The Long-Length jacket, represented by the ZUMO Arnesen, often reaches to (just over) the knee. This length immediately radiates authority, elegance and a powerful, rugged look. It is the ultimate jacket for those who do not compromise on warmth.
When Do You Choose the Long-Length Arnesen?
Ultimate Warmth Guarantee: Due to the extra length, the Arnesen offers maximum protection against wind, cold and rain. A must-have for the coldest days.
Powerful Statement Look: The long-length fit is bold and modern. It immediately makes your outfit more dressed up and is perfect for a minimalist, fashionable look.
Ideal for Smart Outfits: Do you often wear a suit, blazer or long sweater? The Arnesen covers these garments completely, creating a sleek and uninterrupted silhouette.
Design and Functionality of the Arnesen
The Arnesen, like the Skog, is thoughtfully designed, but with extra attention to comfort with the long fit:
Rain-Repellent Fabric: The Arnesen also features the water-repellent finish, so you go from A to B stylishly and dry, even during a downpour.
Double Zipper: With a long jacket, the double zipper is essential! It prevents the jacket from pinching or sitting tight when walking or climbing stairs, and guarantees a comfortable fit.
Side Pockets: The deep, ergonomically placed side pockets contribute to the sleek design and offer functionality without compromising the long, flowing line of the jacket.
