We are an Arctic contemporary fashion and lifestyle multi-brand shop with sustainable and wild-cultured values. Alava is located down the fells of Ylläs and surrounding peaks of Äkäslompolo village in Finnish Lapland. We carry carefully selected Finnish and Lappish brands, that bring luxury to wearers everyday life.

As in Äkäslompolo we are living within the natures cycle, environmental values have merged into our everyday being and choices at Alava. In addition to respecting nature, in objects and products we highly value aesthetics, function, quality and sustainability.

Classics and certain brands are our base for the selection, but new treasures are updated constantly as seasonal favourites or brand new surprises. From Alava you can find treats for yourself, special presents or simply something you needed for everyday life. A piece of clothing or object that will make new memories time after time being worn or used.
