Contact Combat Trousers

The Contact Combat Trousers are the next generation of Arktis combat trousers, completely redesigned from the ground up for maximum flexibility and comfort. CORDURA® reinforced abrasion points at the knees and cuffs add durability.

Lighter than standard ripstop, the mechanical stretch nylon-cotton blend weighs only 185gsm and combines CORDURA® ripstop fibre with native mechanical stretch. The fabric carries Arktis' usual DWR finish for water resistance, with a treatment for reduced NIR signature.

The ergonomic cut reduces excess material without removing flexibility. The new knee pad system uses a side-entry zip and internal mesh pocket to hold the pad with enough movement to protect the knee, secured with two Velcro tabs behind the knee - designed for the Arktis Z225 Elite Knee Pads, though it also accepts most third-party pads.

Each hip carries a CORDURA® reinforced slash pocket for a torch or multitool, plus a secondary pocket. Each thigh has a bellowed cargo pocket with an autolock zip and Velcro-flapped opening, while the rear features zippered pockets with stretch mesh lining for storage and venting. The waist closes with a double button and zip fly and adjusts via Velcro tabs; belt loops fit up to a 2"/6cm belt. The hem carries 500D CORDURA® reinforcement and elastic adjustment.
