A practical fleece designed for physical activity. Its unusual structure means it wicks moisture from sweat to the outside better than regular fleeces, so it works great with thermal underwear. I use it all year round, and it’s nice that there are different color options. Reinforcements on the shoulders and elbows would be useful. In another color. In autumn, worn over a cotton or thermal shirt, it does the job. In the mountains, it is too warm while ascending. It is fine during breaks. I recommend it.

Size: LAt 1.80 m tall and 80 kg, I couldn't decide for a long time between sizes M and L. In the end, L turned out to be a bit too loose for me. A big advantage is the large number of pockets, although unfortunately this contributes to the greater weight. Even so, the price-to-quality ratio is excellent.

The fleece fits the body well. The sizing from the description is accurate. Pleasant to the touch. It can easily be incorporated into your everyday wardrobe. Helikon really delivers.

This fleece has a very original look, is made of high-quality materials and solid hardware. Although it is lightweight and looks that way as well, it provides a lot of warmth. A big advantage is the side pockets, which give a similar feeling to slipping your hands into a kangaroo pocket. The sleeves have stiffened inserts, which for now can be conveniently rolled up. I also considered the Patriot model from Helikon, but ultimately chose this one because it has no hood. The size chosen according to the chart turned out to be perfect, 10/10.

Size: L
A great jacket for the transitional season. I have size L in khaki, and at 1.80 m tall and 83 kg, it fits well, performs well outdoors, and keeps its shape after washing, while also being very comfortable to wear. The solid workmanship, the small pockets hidden inside the chest pocket, and the mesh lining are definite pluses. The YKK zippers work flawlessly and very smoothly, which is not always a given with waterproof models. I’m considering buying a second one in another color. It’s a great choice for a summer camping trip, especially on a cool morning or in the evening. I definitely recommend it!

I usually choose size M, but after checking the size chart I ordered size S for this jacket. It turned out to fit perfectly, so the sizing was accurate. I really like the mesh lining, the jacket has a great cut, and I am extremely satisfied with the purchase.

Size: L
I really like this fleece. It isn’t overly thick, and thanks to the grid structure of the fabric it provides good ventilation. I wear it as a mid-layer while hiking, and put a windproof jacket over it. It retains warmth well while also allowing air to circulate effectively.

I have been using it for several seasons as a lightweight insulating mid-layer under a jacket, as well as wearing the fleece on its own on warmer days. It is a well-designed, lightweight, and very well-fitted fleece jacket.

A very pleasant fleece that works well on colder days. It is lightweight, warm, and comfortable, and the material is soft and pleasant to the touch. The sweatshirt fits well and allows freedom of movement. The workmanship is solid, and after several uses it still looks very good. I am satisfied with the purchase and would gladly buy it again.

Size: M
This is a very successful jacket that provides warmth effectively while not feeling heavy at the same time. Helikon-Tex really did a great job. The seams have quite an unusual look, but you quickly get used to them. Thanks to the drawstrings at the bottom, it is easy to adjust it to your figure. I definitely recommend it. At a height of 1.70 m and a weight of 73 kg, I chose size M. The jacket is not too tight, so you can easily wear additional layers of clothing underneath.

Size: XL
A very comfortable and well-made fleece. It is warm, but at the same time not overly thick, so it also works well under a jacket. A big plus for the large number of practical pockets and the sturdy zippers.

Size: M
Very good quality materials, as is usually the case with Helikon products. Lots of practical pockets and toggles. The vest fits well over a t-shirt, and the fabric resembles knight's armor, which I consider an advantage.

A sweatshirt is a sweatshirt, it's okay, although the texture and the way it's sewn is interesting. Would I recommend the product to other buyers? If you can afford it and you want to have something military, then yes, I recommend it.

M... Review confirmed by purchase
I have owned it for several months and I am very satisfied. I am 170 cm tall and weigh about 83 kg, I have size M and it seems most appropriate, especially since I usually put another layer over the fleece. With this height, a size L might already have sleeves that are too long.

The product is very well made, but size XS was a bit too big for me – still, I did not return it, because I know it will come in handy. The color and texture are also great.
