Arktis announces the new lightweight and windproof A196 Hurricane Shirt which is soon to become available for private purchase.
~
Press Release, Exeter, November 2024: The ultimate fusion of lightweight comfort and robust windproof protection. Your first line of defence against wind and rain.
The Arktis A196 Hurricane Shirt incorporates some of the best elements of three of our favourite products. It introduces new features and design aspects from our Elite Jackets to the simple frame of the Stowaway, while also adding an upgraded front pocket courtesy of developments to our Mammoth Shirt. All this merged while maintaining the quality and design our customers love.
The new hood features the same 3-point adjustment found in our Vulcan and Stealth, with a combination wire and foam peaked hood. We have added Velcro adjustment to the cuffs and modified the bottom hem with a side-set anchored cinch to support the new dropped rear hem.
The Hurricane Shirt offers ample storage with two stacked front pockets. The first is a top-access zip pocket that can store small items and devices and serves as the stuff sack for the shirt. The second pocket behind the first is a hoodie-style pocket with a zip closure, perfect for warming your hands. All zips on the Hurricane Shirt come with storm flaps for extra protection and are YKK-branded.
