This Combat is a really successful purchase. I recently had it at the shooting range in full sun and it performed really well – the material breathes, doesn't overheat, yet is comfortable and doesn't restrict movement. The workmanship is of a high standard, the seams and materials seem very durable. The wz.93 camouflage looks great, which is why I bought it not only for myself, but also for my brother. So far, we are both very happy with the choice.
A lightweight yet robust Combat Shirt tactical pullover, designed as an addition to the Modern Battle Dress Uniform (MBDU) field attire. Crafted with sleeves made from NYCO fabric (a durable blend of cotton and nylon recognized for enhanced resistance to tearing and abrasion), while the main body utilizes flexible and highly breathable TopCool polyester material, promoting optimal comfort, fit, and freedom of motion.
Both sleeves are equipped with pockets secured with YKK zippers, and feature double velcro panels in sizes 6 x 4 cm and 9.5 x 9 cm. These panels enable the attachment of a range of emblems, including flags, unit badges, and morale patches, allowing for complete customization of the garment.
Cuffs fasten with hook-and-loop closures, providing adjustability and a secure fit tailored to individual wrist sizes. Additional reinforcement at the elbow areas offers extra protection against abrasion.
A high stand-up collar with a zip fastening is incorporated, finished with a chin guard for comfort.

The combat shirt is first-class, but it has one serious flaw. Very comfortable, it fits easily under the Helikon MBDU sweatshirt. The sleeves are wider, but the torso fits perfectly. The sizing is accurate, and the high collar is nice. So what's wrong? It's the material the torso is made from. Overall, it's pleasant to the touch, breathable, etc., but not very resistant to mechanical factors. It's something like a sports T-shirt. It snags very easily, and also pills quickly, which is a minor issue. I don't know how it will hold up after prolonged use with a vest or backpack, but I don't predict a good outcome. Despite this flaw, it's one of the best combat shirts in this price range.

One of my most successful purchases in this store. I have two of these, one in camo and one in olive. Both look very good and are very well made—the material is very durable. It's perfect for all outdoor activities, you can even go running in it on colder days. After more than a year of intensive use, they still look like they're straight from the store. I recommend it if you're looking for something reliable for years to come.

The product is carefully made, the color is pleasant to the eye (not too intensely green), and the material itself is very comfortable to the touch. The size L for my measurements (1.84 m tall and 85 kg weight) is a bit loose, which I like. I highly recommend it, especially as a set with MBDU pants from the same price range!
-
Very nice product, great quality, the size matches my usual size. The functional cut and classic camouflage pattern are definite advantages. I recommend it.
-
The appearance is attractive, but in the chest and abdomen area the sweatshirt is quite tight. The sleeves have the right length and width. The material in the middle is unusual, it seems that something needs to be worn underneath.
-
The sweatshirt seems to be made of solid materials. Ideal for activities on hot days. Possibility of attaching velcro. Size L is perfect for just under 190 cm height with an average body build. It's long enough, so there’s no worry that it will come out of the pants. There are two pockets on the shoulders for essential items.
-
Price/quality is very good. For a person who is 178 cm tall and weighs 85 kg, it fits with a slight looseness in the torso, only the sleeves are tight. They could be wider. The color scheme is cool. The materials are decent.
-
Great combat gear, breathable material, wicks away sweat well. If there's a promotion or if you have more points, I recommend buying it, especially since this is our domestic brand.
-
Average quality Combat. It wears out and pills quickly. The seam on the sleeves is in the wrong place, so when you bend your arms at the elbows it rubs and becomes uncomfortable. I recommend ordering a larger size, as it is very tight on the forearms.
-
Great combat shirt designed for dynamic operations and for wearing under a plate carrier. The body is made of light, highly breathable fabric that perfectly wicks away sweat and dries quickly, which drastically increases comfort during intense exertion.
-
Great tactical sweatshirt. The durable material provides excellent protection, and the elastic parts on the chest and back are very breathable under a vest. Highly recommended.
-
The color is a bit different from the one in the pictures, but everything is okay. A successful purchase, fits well – definitely better than the branded one. The uniform material is a bit stiff, but that suits me just fine. I recommend it.
-
Great sweatshirt, very durable thanks to the nylon and comfortable to wear, it dissipates heat from the body well. The only downside, which doesn't bother me, is that the material can get pilled in places where it rubs, for example against a backpack or tactical vest, but for me that's not a big problem. Despite this minor flaw, I wholeheartedly recommend this product.
-
I really liked this combat shirt – it is pleasant to the touch and looks great, and the sleeves seem durable. I hope it will also perform well in use. After the purchase, an even greater promotion appeared on the site, thank you to Militaria for the discount equal to the difference.
