Regular price
PRODUCT DETAILS
The B110 is a showerproof combat smock, as used by Special Forces & Military units around the world, reimagined for our Weekender Collection in an all cotton Gabardine fabric. An outer layer designed to scale for hot or cold environments with enough adjustment to cover your layering needs without compromise.
The pockets of the B110 are designed to keep your admin in check, whether worn with a belt rig, plate carrier, or rucksack. Four button closure pockets with nylon liner on the front give you plenty of expandable space to stuff with kit. Keep your notebooks or devices in the zipped chest pockets and pop a pen and compass in the buttoned sleeve pocket.
With a focus on comfort and wind resistance, the Gabardine B110 uses a lightweight tightly woven cotton fabric instead of our standard ripstop, blocking more wind chill while remaining water resistant thanks to our DWR treatment.
Heavy-duty nylon thread, powerful bartacks and a simple, robust design make the B110 a truly robust jacket. You won’t get better.

THE WEEKENDER IN GABARDINE: New designs in a classic fabric
The core concept of the Weekender Collection is simple, the Arktis quality you expect and enjoy at work in a style and cut for downtime activities. We believe you should have the gear to complete every mission you face, whatever day of the week. This limited-edition Gabardine series of the Weekender Collection combines new and existing designs in a classic tightly woven cotton fabric with a water-resistant coating. This fabric has a long and storied history, originally used in military trench coats due to its excellent wind resistance and durability. For decades, gabardine was a staple in military-issued uniforms, valued for its lightweight comfort and breathable qualities, making it a go-to fabric in harsh environments. Over time, it became particularly popular in smocks, where its soft drape and ability to block wind made it the ideal choice for outdoor and military use. Even though synthetic Ripstop fabrics have gained dominance in recent years, especially in the uniform market, gabardine has retained a strong following for its comfort and wind resistance. For many missions, the soft, well-fitted drape of gabardine still outperforms the rigidity of ripstop fabrics. With this in mind, we combined it into the Weekender Range, designed to offer well-fitting, comfortable garments that combine function, comfort, and the lasting durability that Arktis is known for.
- Tightly woven cotton gabardine, weighing just 161 grams/meter2
- Treated with DWR to balance water resistance and breathability
- Soft feel for comfort and fit
- A classic weight and finish for outdoor garments and uniforms
- Excellent wind protection while remaining durable
VISTA PATTERN
Building on the widespread adoption of patterns such as Multicam, MTP and OCP, VISTA was developed as a pattern suitable for use alongside these common designs. With a carefully balanced palette and emphasis on naturally occurring shapes being blended with each other, VISTA is hugely versatile and suitable for a range of environments and the transitions in between.
