Finnish heritage in America is defined by sisu and a quiet refusal to complain. It is for the Finnish-American who values their roots more than small talk.

About Very Finnish Problems

VFP started as a joke shared between expats trying to explain Finland to the rest of the world. It grew into a community of 1.3 million people who get it — the silences, the saunas, the ruisleipa and the very specific joy of being left alone in nature. Every design is created by Joel Willans, a Brit who has been living in Helsinki since 2002 and has had ample time to observe the Finnish condition up close.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do you ship?
We ship to over 50 countries including the US, Canada, UK, Australia and across Europe. Shipping is free worldwide.

How long does delivery take?
Most orders arrive within 5 to 10 business days. You will receive a tracking link once your order ships.

What if the size does not fit?
We offer a 30 day returns policy. If the fit is not right, get in touch and we will sort it out. Check the size chart before ordering if you are unsure.

How should I wash it?
Machine wash cold, inside out. Tumble dry low or hang to dry. This keeps the print sharp for longer.

Is it ethically made?
Yes. Every item is printed using DTG technology on OEKO-TEX certified blanks and made to order. No batch overproduction.

The shirt itself

This is not a tourist shop shirt that goes stiff and sad after one wash. The design is printed straight into the fabric using DTG, so it stays soft and will not crack, peel or fade the way a pressed on transfer does. The blanks are OEKO-TEX certified, which means they are tested free from harmful substances and safe against your skin. Every shirt is printed to order in small numbers rather than mass produced and left in a warehouse, so what arrives is made for you and built to be worn for years.

Joel Willans, founder of Very Finnish Problems

Designed in Helsinki by someone who actually lives here

Very Finnish Problems is run by Joel Willans, a British writer who moved to Finland over twenty years ago and never quite got around to leaving. Every design comes out of real Finnish life he's had with his Finnish wife, Anna and their kids, and a community of more than 1.3 million people who know exactly what no niin means.
