FAQs

Is this suit suitable for very cold, sub-zero temperatures?

Yes, the Alna 2.0 Winter Suit is designed with insulation for cold conditions. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, layering with appropriate thermal base and mid-layers is recommended for optimal warmth.

How durable is the Cordura® fabric reinforcement?

Cordura® is known for its exceptional durability and resistance to abrasion, tears, and scuffs. The reinforcement at the knees and bottom leg significantly enhances the suit's lifespan in high-wear areas.

Can I wear this suit for activities other than work?

While designed for professional workwear, its waterproof and insulated features could make it suitable for outdoor recreational activities in cold, wet weather. However, its specific workwear features and high-visibility design are its primary focus.

How does the Life Pocket™ work?

The Life Pocket™ is an insulated pocket designed to protect your electronic devices, such as smartphones or tablets, from extreme cold. This helps maintain battery performance and prevents devices from shutting down in low temperatures.

What is the water resistance rating of this suit?

The suit is EN 343:2019 compliant, with a rating of 4,1, indicating excellent protection against rain and water penetration. The construction is fully taped for maximum waterproofness.

How do I adjust the knee pad pockets?

Knee pad pockets are accessible from the inside of the suit. The position of the knee pads can be adjusted by approximately 5 cm to ensure optimal mobility and protection where needed.

What does EN ISO 20471:2013 Class 3 mean?

This certification means the suit meets high visibility standards. Class 3 is the highest level, ensuring maximum visibility for the wearer, which is crucial for safety in hazardous work environments.

Troubleshooting

Suit feels damp inside, despite being waterproof.

Ensure underarm zippers are open for ventilation if engaged in high-exertion activities. Check that all main zippers and storm flaps are properly closed to prevent water ingress. Condensation can also occur if worn in temperatures significantly warmer than the outside environment without adequate ventilation.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to operate.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Ensure no debris is lodged in the zipper track. If necessary, apply a small amount of wax or a zipper lubricant specifically designed for outdoor gear.

Fit is uncomfortable or restrictive in certain movements.

Adjust the hood, cuffs, and waist using the provided adjusters. Ensure knee pads (if used) are positioned correctly for optimal mobility. Check if the suit is the correct size by referencing the size chart. The extended back is designed to provide coverage during movement; ensure it is not hindering you.

Reduced warmth or insulation effectiveness.

Ensure the suit is fully zipped and secured. The primary insulation is in the body and legs; consider layering appropriate thermal base layers underneath for extreme cold. Check for any damage to the insulation material.
