Temperatures and usage conditions
The Ardal sleeping bag's temperature ratings conform to EN 13537 standards:
- T-comfort: 14 C – the lowest temperature at which a woman can remain comfortably asleep throughout the night.

210T Rip-Stop polyester, polyamide lining
The exterior is crafted from 210T Rip-Stop polyester, offering effective protection against wear and mechanical damage. Due to its woven design, any damage does not easily expand. The interior features a finish of 190T polyamide. The lower part is designed as a footbox to align with the natural foot position, minimizing empty space and enhancing thermal insulation in that area. Inside, there's a small pocket for essentials and loops for attaching an extra thermal liner.
MICROfill Super-Therm insulation
The interior of the sleeping bag is lined with MICROfill Super-Therm synthetic insulation, renowned for its lightweight and soft qualities. Its microfiber structure guarantees excellent loft and superior insulation performance. The material retains its thermal properties even after numerous washes.
Right-side zipper, Anti-Bite system
The sleeping bag includes a two-way zipper on the right side, allowing it to be opened from both the top and bottom for simpler access. A fluorescent puller enhances use in low-light conditions. With the Anti-Bite system, the fabric is protected from catching in the zipper. Internally, the zipper is shielded by a thermal baffle. This model can be connected to another bag from the same series.
Integrated hood for cold protection, Duo drawcord
The integrated 3D hood enhances thermal insulation by snugly fitting around the head to reduce heat escape. Its ergonomic design also shields against wind and moisture. The Duo drawcord combines elastic and webbing smartly – the elastic at the neck allows for unrestricted hand movement without needing adjustments, while the webbing at the back permits quick loosening in specific areas, which is particularly beneficial in conditions of low visibility, such as at night.
Convenient transport and storage
This model is crafted for effortless portability and compression. Once packed, it measures 27 x 14 cm and weighs 800 g, making it an optimal selection for hiking and expeditions where every gram is crucial.

Rip-Stop weave protects the fabric from abrasions and tears. It is characterized by additional threads woven in at regular intervals, forming a mesh-like pattern. It provides high strength to the fabric, increases resistance to mechanical damage, especially tears.
Anti-Bite is a system that prevents material from getting jammed in the zipper, used in outdoor clothing and equipment. It prevents the fabric from blocking the zipper, which increases the durability of the product and improves the comfort of use, especially in outdoor conditions.
Microfill Super-Therm is an advanced insulation technology used in products such as thermal clothing and sleeping bags. The fiber structure effectively retains heat, ensuring thermal comfort even at low temperatures. The high elasticity and lightness of the material translate into ease of compression and transportation, while maintaining excellent insulating properties.
DUO drawstring in Fjord Nansen sleeping bags is a two-zone adjustment system, which allows you to adjust the hood independently with an elastic band in front and a tape with a lock in the back. This solution makes it easy to quickly adjust the sleeping bag to your body position and personal preferences, without having to leave the interior.
