Dual-layer Merino performance built for cold-weather operations.

Tactical Arctic combines fine Merino wool mesh next to the skin with a solid expedition-weight Merino outer layer. The mesh creates insulating air space while reducing the amount of damp fabric touching the body. The solid outer layer stabilizes warmth, manages moisture, and provides the low-odor comfort needed for extended duty, cold-weather operations, and stop-and-go activity.

Why Tactical Arctic Works

Tactical Arctic combines two forms of Merino in one operational garment. The fine mesh inner layer creates insulating air cells and limits the amount of fabric resting directly against the body. The solid outer layer covers those cells, stabilizes warmth, and continues managing moisture as activity levels rise and fall.

That Means:
Insulating air space with fewer damp contact points
Natural odor control across extended duty periods
Warmth maintained when movement slows or stops
Smooth solid exterior beneath uniforms and protective layers
