Size: XXL

The quality is excellent, but the sizing is not so great. Normally, 2XL gives me a comfortable fit, but in this jacket I can barely fit even wearing just a T-shirt, let alone with a sweatshirt or something thicker underneath. To clarify: I’m fairly tall, but I don’t have a particularly bulky build. Since the delivery takes a very long time, I don’t feel like going through the return process, especially since there isn’t a larger size available for exchange. So I’m keeping the jacket because I really like its quality, but I’m still looking for a model that will be truly large and comfortable.

Size: XL

As expected from Helikon, it’s top-notch. I can confidently recommend size XL; at 184 cm and 100 kg it fits perfectly and there is still room for a sweatshirt underneath. Plenty of pockets for many things.

Size: XL

The jacket does its job; as usual, Helikon does not disappoint. Size XL for a height of 186 cm and 92 kg leaves a bit of room when worn over a sweatshirt, just the way I like it, because I do not like overly fitted clothes. I wear a fleece underneath for warmth, so for autumn days it is perfect, and it also works for me in a light frost. There are a lot of pockets for odds and ends and various handy bits and pieces, and the underarm vents are also a nice feature. I thought about it for a long time, and also considered the MK Trooper II. But for autumn weather this one is much better; the Trooper will be better for active outdoor use. I recommend it.

A very comfortable and practical jacket for everyday wear and outdoor use. It protects well against the wind, and the material is durable and pleasant to use. The large number of pockets is a big advantage—you can keep everything you need close at hand. The cut is comfortable and does not restrict movement. For me, it is a very successful softshell, especially for cooler and windy days.

Review for model:

Size: XXL

The softshell is of good quality, and the XXL size fit perfectly for a height of 182 cm and a weight of 102 kg. The underarm ventilation was covered with mesh. After tucking the hood into the collar, it becomes a bit too bulky and less comfortable, although it is still acceptable. Overall, I am satisfied. The shipment arrived in Ukraine very quickly, in 4 days.

Size: XXL

This is yet another Helikon jacket or sweatshirt purchased from Militaria. If someone is a fan of this kind of clothing, they know perfectly well that Helikon means quality, functionality, and comfort all in one. The only downside is the prices, but oh well...

Size: S

A decent jacket at an affordable price. Helikon Tex is a brand I generally value very much, although not every product offers a great quality-to-price ratio. I have had this particular jacket for several years and now decided to buy another in a different color. It worked great and I wore it almost every day. I only noticed a slight difference in size – my old jacket in size S was looser, and the new one, despite being the same size, is more fitted and tighter. I definitely recommend this product.

I bought this jacket last year and I have to admit that it is one of the best lightweight jackets I have ever had. It protects excellently from water and wind. I really value products of this brand. Great choice!

The jacket is very warm and comfortable. A big plus is the use of vents and a hood hidden in the collar. I think it's suitable even for winter.

This is already my second Helikon-Tex Gunfighter jacket and once again I am very satisfied. The previous one served me for a long time, so I knew what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised that the manufacturer improved several details compared to the previous version. Especially positive is the material under the zippered vents under the armpits – it is more practical and gives a better impression than before. Besides that, the jacket still does what I liked about the previous one: it protects well against wind, handles light rain, has a comfortable cut, and very practically arranged pockets. It works well both for everyday use and outdoors. Solid workmanship, comfort, and functionality – I definitely recommend it.

So far, I've only used it for a short time, but the jacket is very functional and does its job excellently – it perfectly protects against wind, drizzle, and wet snow. The high collar protects the neck and the adjustable hood protects the head. The underarm vents help regulate comfort during intense activity. The only small downside for me is that the side pockets are placed high, and keeping my hands in them is not very comfortable. Also, I urgently needed it, and there weren't many colors and sizes left to choose from.

The Helikon-Tex Gunfighter jacket in Shadow Grey is really a great choice and I am very satisfied with it. It is very nice and surprisingly warm – in my case, when temperatures are above 5 degrees Celsius, I wear it over just a t-shirt and it works perfectly in such a combination. The Shark Skin material with the Windblocker membrane provides excellent protection against the wind, so thermal comfort is maintained at a high level. What especially deserves praise is the super large number of pockets, which are arranged very intuitively and allow you to easily store all the necessary small items. The whole thing is solidly made and very practical, so I honestly recommend this model to anyone looking for a good softshell.

Very nice and quite durable jacket. It is quite warm and blocks the wind well. Moreover, after being impregnated, it also works well in the rain. The hood rolled up in the collar feels like having a strong, thick scarf around your neck. And in slightly warmer moments, or during activity, the ventilation systems do their job very well.
