STAYING WARM IN THE ARCTIC COLD: THE CHRISTIAN POSADA WAY
Whether he’s kayaking between icebergs or tackling a day’s work at Pituffik Space Base, facing subzero temperatures is not unusual for Christian Posada. The USMC veteran works as a logistics and supply contractor where Arctic winters are brutal.
“I work and live on a Space Force Base in a remote area of North Greenland. Last year, in the winter, temperatures went as low as -37°F and floated around -20°F,” Posada shares.
Arctic Gear for Extreme Conditions
Posada is a seasoned professional in battling cold temperatures. So, he's not willing to compromise when it comes time to dress himself for the toughest conditions. Enter RefrigiWear—his go-to defense for warmth and durability. RefrigiWear provides the insulated coveralls and warm winter boots that Posada relies on in extreme cold weather. After wearing his Iron-Tuff Coveralls and 54 Gold Hiker Boots for a few hours, Posada confirms he's a “fan for life.”
“The (Iron-Tuff) coveralls were exceptionally comfy, functional, and stylish. Everyone wanted to know where I got it from. They also allow you to wear any other layers you may want or need underneath it very easily. The front pockets were also very convenient for holding items I needed readily available when out and about... I am able to stay so warm and cozy while working and going on adventures," he explains.
Comfort and Warmth On and Off the Clock
When he’s not working at the Space Base, Christian is exploring other below-freezing places. No matter where his travels take him, he always keeps his RefrigiWear gear close by.
“I also recommend their beanies, gloves, and boots. I have used them nonstop since receiving them here in Greenland. On top of being stylish, they are very good at keeping you warm in this Arctic environment,” adds Posada.
Christian Posada represents a true winter warrior. That’s why he equips himself with gear that works as hard as he does. Whether it’s durable insulated boots or workwear for single digit temperatures, Christian knows RefrigiWear has him covered.
