Our guarantee of comfort – tested under normal Finnish conditions

Svala is an expert in dressing to ensure maximum enjoyment in the great outdoors. Everything we make will withstand the test of time and heavy use. In other words, our products are designed to feel comfortable even when they’ve seen you through countless kilometres on the road or ski tracks. And they’ll feel equally good after innumerable jogs and more fishing trips than you can count.

Svala’s guarantee of comfort is a realisation of all the values we proudly uphold. If you are not completely satisfied with a Svala garment for any reason, you will get your money back – without any questions. There’s no small print, and no unpleasant surprises.

Our values

Quality

If clothing is high quality, that means it’s always comfortable and durable. Our clothing is handmade using top-grade materials of known origin. We manufacture our mesh knitwear by a unique and patented manufacturing method. Our products have been awarded the Finnish Key Flag Symbol.

Wearability

All our clothing is designed to meet the needs of active people. All seams that come into contact with the skin are flat seams for maximum comfort. The smooth knit on the shoulders prevents abrasion and helps in evenly distributing the weight of backpacks and the like. Thanks to long hems and sleeves, the back and wrists remain protected even when reaching and bending. The material is flexible, adapting to body movements in all directions. For this reason, the fit of Svala’s clothing is truly in a class of its own.

Durability

To ensure maximum usability and extend product life, we use as few seams as possible in our garments. In many cases, quality clothing can be mended if need be. Our repair service also helps in this regard to reduce unnecessary textile waste.

Sustainability

Sustainability is all about actions, not words. We do not make fast fashion – we firmly believe that high-quality clothing is also important when it comes to environmental concerns. Mulesing-free merino wool is an ethical choice in every respect. Thanks to the technical and natural properties of our clothing, they can be washed far less frequently than conventional clothing. A good airing is often enough. In addition to operating in an environmentally friendly way, being a responsible company also means supporting the vitality of our small community.

Finnish comfort since 1955

We know just about everything when it comes to dressing for outdoor activities, because we understand the needs of modern people on the move. Our exceptional know-how and decades of experience in the manufacture of base and mid layers guarantee comfort even in the toughest conditions. Svala clothing feels good even when the weather’s at its worst. This is true no matter where you are or what you’re doing, be it on land or at sea. At the summer cottage or in the city. Here, there and almost everywhere. In all seasons.
