The A220 is an update on the classic A210 Mammoth Shirt. Featuring a concealed nylon hood, for use in emergencies when wind, snow & rain showers unexpectedly appear. The hood is very lightweight & packs away into the collar when not in use.
The fit has also been tweaked. The shoulders and sleeves now allow for a better range of movement, and it is wider in the body to allow for other layers. Please see the updated size guide.
The Mammoth is fibre-pile lining which is both rugged and warm for use in the harshest of conditions.
Two-directional zips running up the side of the garment allow for quick ventilation when the user requires. In addition the mammoth has side entry hand warmer-pockets and a vital document compartment which can hold maps, notepads, and other survival gear.
The Mammoth has seen action with the British navy, police dog handling units and various outdoor workers. It's incredibly versatile and can be worn as a mid-layer underneath a smock, or as a standalone outer garment.

How To Measure
With arms relaxed at your sides, measure under your arms around the fullest part of your chest.
Our ripstop clothing is made from robust, hardy fabric that lasts for years. All dyes will tend to fade, but ours has an excellent colour fixative that will remain effective for years. The basic principle of care is to be sensible. Heavy reactive chemicals will strip the fabric, and overly gentle treatments will not be particularly effective. Be sensible. The thing to remember is that general wear and tear comes in many forms, not just abrasion. Strong light has a powerful effect (photodegradation), and there are even chemical compounds in rainwater, so generally everything you use can be expected to deteriorate. Arktis fabrics have been developed with these characteristics in mind. Making them durable and resistant to wear and tear. Most caring involves being thoughtful about what you do.
Washing: Ripstop & Nylon Minirip: For light marks and dirt, use a wet cloth to wipe down your garment. For more serious cleaning, you can place your Arktis garments in the washing machine with minimal issues. Wash at 30°C using a non-bio cleaner. Do not use softeners or bleach. Leave to dry in a warm ventilated room, do not tumble dry. Whilst our ripstop has resistance to dry cleaning, chemicals are used in the production of coatings such as DWR. These chemicals can react with dry cleaning chemicals, so we recommend that you do not use this method.
Reproofing: A time will come in the life of a water-repellent garment when water is starting to absorb into the fabric at a more frequent rate. A modest restoration of the outer’s water repellency will help diminish the absorption of water into the fabric. With some coated fabrics, pressing the garment with a cool or “1 Dot” iron will revive the coating to an effective level. The reason behind this is that heat can reactivate the finish, bringing it back to life. It’s always worth trying ironing as the first step. If required you can restore outer water repellency using Stormsure, NIKWAX or similar products. We prefer spray-on type products to allow for precision on key areas. When spraying make sure the garment is clean and free from any detergent, focus on areas such as shoulders and hoods.
