A very comfortable combat shirt, it wicks moisture well; you don’t get sweaty in it or feel like you’re boiling even in heat above 30°C. The pockets for soft elbow pads are designed in an interesting way: they are accessible only from the inside of the sleeves, and you have to roll up the protector, but it sits well, and military chocolate bars fit. The sleeves wear a little, but that is a negligible problem, nor do they look bad. The sleeves are narrower than in the MON-issued one, which has its advantages for some people (for me it is more fitted) and disadvantages for others (someone may find them too narrow).

Great, comfortable combat shirt. Probably the best one available on the market. Breathable. Fits very well. High quality, and the camouflage looks great in person. The only downside is that the camouflage on the sleeves fades relatively quickly, but even after several washes it still doesn’t look bad. Lightweight, dries quickly, breathable.

For the first time, I took this sweatshirt to deep water (or rather to the lack of it) because it was nearly 40 degrees outside, and despite everything, I felt more comfortable in it than in just a T-shirt. Everything breathes perfectly, nothing restricts movement – you just have to have it.

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.

Size: L

I bought this shirt and used it as a replacement for an issued part of the Czech Police uniform, which is of significantly lower quality than Helikon. The biggest advantages of this model are definitely the much better material and functionality. I rate the pockets and the cut positively. The lack of pockets for protective pads in critical areas is not a drawback for me, because I never used them anyway. As for the color, the combat shirt holds its color well and even after many washes it does not fade or change shade, which unfortunately I cannot say about Helikon’s black MCDU and SFU trousers. Indeed, as someone already mentioned, the black here is more intense and in full sunlight it looks darker than some black items issued for service. A downside mentioned by many people is the quality of the material in the functional section. Slight wear and contact with a plate carrier or vest are enough for pilling and pulled threads to appear. The second problem, which I think I noticed only in my case, is the combination of materials in this section. Most likely due to a reaction with sweat, after the first wash and subsequent use the shirt very quickly began to give off an unpleasant smell. The situation repeated after every wash, despite trying various detergents, including antibacterial ones. After a few hours of wearing, the smell would return, although previously the shirt had lasted several days in the heat without this problem. Only washing it with vinegar solved the issue, and since then it has again maintained relative freshness for several days of use. I have also had a similar problem with other Helikon products, especially T-shirts. Overall, I consider this combat shirt a decent basic model, but in terms of quality and workmanship, you can find much better options, even at a similar price. At the current price of 1700 crowns, I definitely would not recommend it. A reasonable price is rather around 1200 crowns or less.

The shirt is very comfortable, fits great, and allows for freedom of movement. The fabric is durable and effectively wicks away moisture, which is especially noticeable during higher activity. The carefully made seams further highlight its quality — I am very satisfied with this purchase.

I recommend getting a larger size; overall it fits pretty well, the material quality is also nice. I think it will perform well at the shooting range on cooler days, though the price is a bit high for a piece of cloth…

A very good combat shirt — at this price, you get a solidly made, high-quality shirt that will not disappoint you, just like other products from the Helikon brand. I have many of their items, and they have never let me down in demanding conditions.

Great sweatshirt. It fits as if it were tailor-made. It is very comfortable and nicely fitted, but not tight. It doesn’t feel like you’re wearing a loose sack. The material is very pleasant. The stitching looks solid. The sizing is exactly as described in the size chart. I will definitely buy another one in some time.

An ideal combat shirt for the unit or for someone who attends a uniformed class. It will never replace a sweatshirt, but for late spring and early autumn it will be just right.

A good sweatshirt, resistant to damage. I’ve been using it for almost a year and there are no visible signs of wear. Two drawbacks are the average finishing quality: there are places where threads stick out at the seams, as if the stitching was finished poorly, and the second drawback is that the zipper catches on the chin when it is not pulled all the way up. I think it would have been enough to make a larger fabric flap and there would be no problem.

This combat shirt is really great. The material feels very pleasant to the touch. There are hook-and-loop fasteners on the sleeves that can be adjusted quickly and conveniently, and they hold very well. Likewise, the side zip pockets easily fit an ID card or a small wallet. The zipper at the neck is very comfortable and equipped with a guard that protects against pinching. I am very satisfied with it.

The sweatshirt is not cheap, but it provides a high level of comfort. It is breathable and wicks moisture well, while also keeping you warm. The stiff sleeves become softer over time. It looks very good on you.

Size: M

A good combat shirt. I chose size M for 180 cm height and 75 kg weight, and it fits, although the sleeves could be a little shorter. The material is breathable and stretchy, but it snags easily. I’m giving it 4 stars because the camouflage on the sleeves fades fairly quickly, which makes the shirt look washed out.
