Size: L

I recommend this jacket to everyone. The pockets are large and spacious. The cuffs protect against drafts and also give the jacket an interesting look. The underarm vents and the two-way zipper make it possible to wear the jacket even in high temperatures. The material provides good protection from the wind. It also handles brief drizzle or moisture, but in heavier rain it absorbs water quite quickly - I recommend waxing the jacket at least in key areas; it changes the appearance, but gives better protection from the rain. I am quite tall and broad-shouldered, and I often wear the jacket with two thermal layers and a fleece, yet it is still very roomy and does not restrict my movement in any way.

Very high quality jacket. Thoughtfully designed pockets. The jacket has a loose fit, but a big advantage is the multi-level adjustment. You can adjust it to your figure or the clothes you wear under the jacket. For me, it's suitable for summer and spring seasons due to the thin material. Of course, you can wear something thicker underneath and use it at lower temperatures. I had no problem with the size. I normally wear M and here M also fits. Plus for the appearance. You don't see such jackets on the streets. I recommend it even at the regular price.

The Helikon Smock jacket has earned my appreciation thanks to its high-quality craftsmanship, thoughtful cut, and large number of spacious pockets that allow you to comfortably carry your gear. Its lightness, versatility, and the ability to adjust the hood and circumference are also appreciated. It is resistant to light rain and provides good protection against the wind. For my body size of 188 cm / 100 kg, I chose the 3XL size and there's plenty of room without a thick underside layer, but I think that's the point of this jacket.

Size: L

A great jacket with lots of well-thought-out solutions. The biggest advantage is the pockets: there are 4 hip pockets and 4 chest pockets, and the inner ones on the chest are really very spacious. Obviously, under normal conditions you do not pack as much into it as into a backpack, but if the situation calls for it, you can stuff a huge amount of gear in there. The material feels very solid, and a big plus is that it can be waxed normally. The hood is quite good, and the underarm vents really do the job when it gets hotter while walking. It is also worth choosing a size larger than usual, because then the pockets work better and you can comfortably use extra thermal layers without restricting movement. For the forest and outdoor use in general, this is an absolutely brilliant choice, although for the city I still prefer the classic M65.

Size: XXL

The jacket is well made, practical, and available at a good price. It would only be better if it were a little longer around the hips and had an inner pocket. Other than that, it is definitely worth buying.

I needed a lightweight jacket with plenty of pockets and I managed to find it here. The quality of workmanship is at a good level, and the zippers open smoothly and without any problems. My usual size L turned out to be suitable, and there is enough room under the jacket for a sweater without any trouble. The jacket protects well against the wind, but I haven't had a chance to test its waterproofness yet. The only slight drawback is the lack of an inside pocket, although I don't consider it a big problem. I definitely recommend this purchase, especially considering the attractive price!

The jacket is very practical and looks good. The material is strong but lightweight, has many spacious pockets, and a high collar. Additionally, the hood protects against the wind. I wholeheartedly recommend it to all autumn walkers.

This jacket immediately caught my attention while browsing outerwear on the site. I decided to order it and now I am very satisfied with it. The craftsmanship is extremely meticulous, the cut is comfortable, and the number of pockets allows you to literally store everything. It's my first time owning a product made from Duracanvas material and I appreciate its sturdiness and texture. In autumn, I plan to impregnate the jacket, as suggested in the instructions, to increase its water resistance. As for the size: I'm 188 cm tall and weigh 117 kg, I chose size XXL and it fits perfectly. The jacket sits well, and on colder days I can easily wear a warm fleece underneath.

Great jacket for colder days. The fit, quality of the material, and workmanship are all at a high level, plus the number of pockets is a big advantage. The Earth Brown color is amazing. At 180cm height, 98cm chest, and 73kg weight, size S fits perfectly.

Great jacket from Helikon-Tex. The duracanvas fabric looks solid and durable. The hood fastens high, providing very good protection, and the multitude of pockets increases the jacket's practicality.

The jacket is made of solid materials, has a loose fit and high durability, as well as spacious pockets and carefully crafted seams and details. The price is very attractive and the shipping is fast. I definitely recommend this product and the seller.

Simple, comfortable jacket. A significant advantage is the two-way zipper and ventilation under the arms. On the downside: definitely an inflated price for such a simple jacket – it's only worth it if you find a promotion. Besides that, I don't know what is meant by "The material is suitable for waxing impregnation" – the composition of the material is like most Helikon products, which means it’s mostly polyester (cheaper than, for example, nylon). By that logic, most Helikon clothes could be waxed – in my opinion, this is just creating a “legend” (in this case, a British one) for the product.

The jacket is comfortable and works well for everyday use in spring, although the hood could be bigger – still, it serves its purpose. The material breathes well, but does not protect against rain. It will only work in light rainfall.

The jacket is outstanding, the cut is suitable both for everyday city use and outdoor activities. The material is resistant to campfire sparks, wind, and light rain is nothing to worry about in this jacket. Plus for the adjustable hood (drawstring) at the back. The Napoleon pockets are very spacious, perfect for spring or autumn. When it's below 10 degrees, you should wear something underneath, like a fleece, then you can go out in even lower temperatures. Huge plus for the two-way zipper, you can open the bottom when getting into a car or use it for ventilation, though there is also a zippered ventilation system under the arm. Size L fits perfectly, but with a fleece it gets a bit tight, so I suggest choosing a size up (180/90).

My first impressions are good. I think it looks better than the M65 model. The jacket is comfortable and versatile, although it is not the lightest. It handles light rain well. For spring, it is a great choice. The quality is rather average, but the price is also adequate. However, I miss having inner pockets.
