How do I adjust the leg length?

The leg length can be increased by 5cm. Specific mechanisms for adjustment may vary, refer to detailed product instructions if available.

What does EN 343:2019 Class 4,1 mean?

This certification indicates high performance in water protection (Class 4) and water-vapor resistance (Class 1), signifying excellent protection against rain and moisture.

How should I clean the Bifrost Winter Bib?

Is this bib suitable for extreme cold?

Yes, it meets EN 342:2017 standards for thermal insulation (Icler 0,374 m²K/W(B)) and air permeability (Class 3), making it suitable for cold conditions, especially when paired with the correct upper layers.

What is the purpose of the Cordura reinforcement?

Cordura is a highly durable fabric used to reinforce high-wear areas like the knees and bottom leg, significantly increasing the bib's lifespan in rugged work environments.

Troubleshooting

Reduced water resistance

Ensure the garment is clean. Prolonged use or improper care can affect the PFC-Free DWR coating. Reapplication of a DWR treatment might be necessary.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to use

Clean the zipper teeth to remove any dirt or debris. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper track.

Discomfort due to fit

Adjust the elastic suspenders, elastic waist, and fastener closures. Experiment with the knee pad positioning and leg length adjustment for a personalized fit.

Phone not staying warm in Life Pocket™

Ensure the pocket is fully closed. While designed to insulate, extreme cold may still affect battery performance. Minimize time spent outside the pocket.
