Somewhat of an international brand from Finland that I like is the Luhta brand. Can recommend their winterwear atleast.

Edit: it was recently posted here, but for shoes I got myself Austrian Waldviertler shoes and absolutely love them. Very durable and I like the style.

Varusteleka is a Finnish company that sells military surplus as well as their own apparel. It's all made in Finland and Estonia, and they have high ethics throughout the process.
