Let us introduce Greta the Griffin!
We wanted a shirt that showed that you’d been to Sweden. We did not want the Three Crowns—the national symbol famously worn by Sweden’s ice hockey team, and a symbol of Stockholm. We wanted Swedishness, but perhaps more the area we live in, the place Malmö represent.
So, what do you do?
The griffin has long been a symbol of both Malmö and Scania—Scania is also the region of Sweden where Malmö is located—just look at the badge on a Scania truck.
So, naturally, we got ourselves a much cooler griffin.
Her name is Greta. Greta the Griffin.
We added the Swedish flag, along with the red and yellow flag of Scania—red for Denmark and yellow for Sweden. After more than 700 years as part of Denmark, Scania became Swedish in 1658.
And there you have it: a little bit of history behind our Greta the Griffin.
