For all your Apple needs, Macland is
the place to go. The only Apple retailer
in downtown Reykjavik, Macland is a
strange mix of an Apple store and a laid
back coffee house. Repairs are done in-
house and if you are having 99 problems
with your Apple stuff, check them out.
Handprjónasambandið is as authentic
as can be. Everything is made from
Icelandic wool and knitted by Icelanders:
The store features pullover sweaters,
cardigans and other wool accessories.
A Lopapeysa is a wool sweater with a
diamond pattern, the kind that almost every
Icelander owns. The pattern itself isn´t that
old. It was first used in the 50´s, but today
a sweater can hardly be called a proper
Lopapeysa without the proper wool pattern.
You will find classic icelandic wool blankets,
the original Lopapeysa along with a wide
selection of gifts at Rammagerðin store.
Farmers Market is an Icelandic design
company and clothing brand, founded
in 2005 by a young artist couple - a
designer and a musician. With strong
ties to the vibrant Icelandic music and
design scene, the Farmers Market
design concept and inspiration draws
from Icelandic roots, combining clas-
sic Nordic design elements with chic
modernity.
Located on the main shopping street
at Laugavegur 59, Herrafataverzlun
Kormáks & Skjaldar is a unique mens-
wear shop that offers a great variety of
clothing and accessories. In addition
to brands such as Barbour, Filson, Ben
Sherman, Loake Shoemakers & Hackett
of London, they have an in-house
brand that offers suits, shirts and more.
The shop has a feel good decorative
atmosphere and a staff that treats each
person in a personal and gentle manner.
When you walk up the charming street
towards the big church on the hill you'll
find Geysir, a charming store giving you
a true taste of Icelandic design. The store
is inspired by Icelandic history and the
strong relationship between Icelanders
and the unique Icelandic wool that has
kept the nation warm through the cen-
turies. Featuring labels such as Farmer's
Market, Vík Prjónsdóttir and their own
clothing line Geysir. Geysir is a store you
must visit.
Jólahúsið or The Christmas House, is a
must visit for this holiday season. For
those who get all warm inside this time
of year, this is the store of your dreams.
Located in the heart of downtown
Reykjavík, it is filled with a great variety
of tasteful ornaments and all the other
stuff to get each and all into the true
spirit of christmas.
The Aurum store has attracted con-
siderable attention for its quirky and
unique merging of products and design,
featured in numerous media outlets both
in Iceland and abroad. Guðbjörg Kristín
Ingvarsdóttir’s nature-inspired designs
are a breath of fresh air and a celebrated
entity of Icelandic design. Her jewellery/
concept store offers stunning accessories
for both you and your home.
Kirsuberjatred is a gallery run by 12
women in the heart of the city. With dif-
ferent backgrounds and an individual
approach to materials and fields of
interest they approach the subject in
their own way joining together in dis-
playing their outcomes. Whether it be
a single item or a series of objects, the
focus is on the magic of reflection and
the curiosity behind looking, viewing
and experiencing what is seen.
Textile and Jewellery designer Hildur
Hafstein runs a small design studio and
workshop right in the centre of Reykja-
vik. Her handmade Jewellery is inspired
by the nomadic culture of the Gypsies,
the ethical respect of the Hippies and
the meditative traditions of the Far East.
The jewellery is made out of semi-
precious gemstones and sterling silver
and set out to complete your looks and
nourish both body and soul.
A true second hand heaven. Spúútnik
has been a local favourite for over 25
years. Here you will find a great variety
of vintage clothing, shoes and acces-
sories for both men and women.
A beautiful and unique vintage store
where every item is carefully handpicked,
wether looking for some outstanding
party pieces or a vintage designer wear,
this is the place to visit.
Be on the lookout when strolling the
Laugavegur in Reykjavik. You will come
across a large red bass drum which
means you are in luck. At Sturla you will
find the internationally renowned Scotch
& Soda fashion brand, Icelandic design
and a fine selection of Icelandic music.
We look forward to seeing you.
Húrra Reykjavík is the brainchild of two
young men born and raised in Reykjavík.

Icelandic men the finest streetwear
and contemporary fashion brands from
around the world. Húrra Reykjavík has
a passion for functionality, quality, the
classic and the ultra modern. Blending
