Once again, Helikon met my expectations. I was looking for a simple and durable jacket, and that’s exactly what I received. The material is strong and of the right thickness for everyday use. It goes well with UTP pants in the same shade. The jacket could be a little more flexible, but its durability is more important to me. I also have a softshell from the same brand, but I prefer this jacket.
Jacket constructed from robust DuraCanvas fabric (65% polyester, 33% cotton, 2% elastane). Flexible Versastrech Lite panels are integrated beneath the arms, providing optimal mobility without restriction. Waist and cuffs can be tailored for fit using flaps and sturdy Canadian buttons. A tear-away zipper adds to its practicality.
The Greyman version offers well-designed pockets for organized gear storage. Two external angled zippered pockets include small organizers, complemented by two spacious internal pockets and a smaller chest pocket on the inside left.
Lightweight jacket crafted as part of the Greyman clothing series, featuring low-profile styling that avoids drawing attention while maintaining tactical capability.

I was hesitating between size L and XL. I am 189 cm tall and weigh 90 kg. In the end, I decided on XL and I am very satisfied. The sleeves are quite long, which I consider an advantage. The product fits well and is well made.
-
Jacket bought for everyday wear; the black color works well and looks good, it's comfortable. Good pockets, I use the inside zippered one for my wallet/documents. Suitable for spring, it's not a thick jacket but does the job. Size XXL - I'm quite short, 170cm, but a bit large, over 100kg ;) so it's fine for me, though the sleeves would be better if they were shorter, but it's not bad. I recommend it.

The jacket is nice and would definitely be useful. Unfortunately, the sleeves are too long and definitely too narrow for me. My forearms are squeezed to the max, so I can forget about wearing a sweatshirt, etc. under this jacket. Generally, for me, the whole jacket is too narrow in the size I usually choose from this manufacturer. A larger size won't meet my expectations because it will be too long, and I prefer shorter jackets of this type.
-
Great jacket with a fantastic cut, the ASH GREY color looks really amazing in real life. For someone over 190 cm, I recommend XXL – unless you have a particularly large chest. The jacket is really of excellent quality at a good price – I recommend it.
-
For me, the jacket is amazing for the city, the look is really subtle in every way, comfortable and well-thought-out pockets, really high level of comfort. There's nothing bad to say about the quality - I recommend it.
-
A very nice, lightweight jacket. For autumn and spring, thrown over a sweatshirt, it is completely sufficient and provides protection against rain. Well tailored, fits perfectly. I recommend it.

I already have two of these – first, a message to Helikon: Helikon, make more models where the color of both panels of materials is the same! When the contrast is too high, whether in a jacket or trousers, you feel like a tourist climbing Giewont. Especially in a jacket that's supposed to stand out less, the color should be uniform. For this reason, with Greyman, I only like the darker colors, because they contrast less with those 'wings' under the arms, which are for some reason black in every model. This makes no sense to me, same with the trousers. Other than that, though, it's a great civilian jacket—put a hoodie underneath (best to take a slightly roomier size), and you've got a set for zero or slightly subzero temperatures. Excellent functionality in the city, I recommend.
-
One of the best jackets, fits perfectly, good cut, well-placed pockets, and the ability to unzip the jacket as if tearing it open is a great feature. I recommend it!!
-
The jacket is perfectly fine. I hesitated for a long time about the size (176cm, slim build, about 93cm chest) and ultimately chose size M. It fits perfectly.
-
Bought in black and it just wears great. 174cm and size M fits just right for a slim figure. Everything matches the description. In my opinion, one of Helikon's better products.
-
It looks elegant on a person, very fitted cut, can easily be worn as a casual jacket for going out in the city. I'm 182 cm and 82 kg, I took M, you can fit a sweatshirt underneath but it's a tight fit.
-
The jacket is almost perfect, the internal organizers for magazines do their job. It is well sewn, the material is quite decent, but it is only a single layer, so either for warmer days or with something underneath. The only thing I miss is an external chest pocket.
-
Greyman jacket: quality, craftsmanship, fit, and functionality at the highest level. For a height of 190cm and weight of 105, XXL size is just perfect. I also tried on XXXL, but that size was already too large. I recommend it with a clear conscience.
-
Very good jacket. The quality is first class as expected from Helikon. Big plus for the easy zip tear function. Great material. The jacket is perfect for autumn and spring. Height 183 cm, weight 75, size M fits perfectly. Lots of pockets, another plus. Super casual little jacket. Highly recommend.
