The sweatshirt is worth its price. Its material quality and robust cuffs and zippers easily surpass many cheaper sweatshirts from well-known chain brands. The fact that this is my fourth piece is proof of its quality. Practically everyone in my family wears Helikon sweatshirts. It's a sturdy product, good design, and the additional pockets on the sleeve and inside the right belly pocket are useful. The green color is muted, subdued, and looks good. After washing, the sweatshirt keeps its shape, the colors don’t fade—we also have two red ones and one black. The product's durability probably comes from a well-balanced polyester ratio. The sweatshirt is massive—warm. One note—the size runs slightly larger than the market standard. I recommend it to those who are undecided.
Insulating and suitable for all seasons, the hoodie is secured with a durable YKK zipper.
An ergonomic hoodie cut ensures unrestricted movement as well as effective ventilation beneath additional layers. The spacious hood shields against low temperatures, wind, and rain.
A total of 6 pockets equip the hoodie:
- two standard hip pockets,
- a concealed pocket with zipper closure located within the right hip pocket,
- two interior mesh pockets,
- and a compact sleeve pocket on the left shoulder.
An 11 x 9 cm velcro panel on the left arm facilitates the attachment of patches such as a national flag, unit insignia, or Morale Patches, providing ample customization options.
Elastic cuffs help retain warmth within the hoodie. The main zipper rises to form a collar that shields the neck and face from harsh weather.

Size: M
This is a great style for everyday EDC wear. Size M fits me perfectly, just like other items from Helikon, such as T-shirts. The materials and refined details make this hoodie one of my everyday favorites. I also really like its blue color.
-
This is probably my favorite sweatshirt from Helikon. It has a very nice cut and a hidden pocket on the sleeve. The blue color looks very good. I honestly recommend it.
-
Today I received the product in blue and am already using it – it looks great, and as usual with Helikon, the quality is top-notch. I always wear this brand's clothes in size M, I'm 178 cm tall and weigh 79 kg – it fits perfectly as always. Although some people in the reviews suggest that the model is too spacious and recommend choosing a smaller size, I decided, as always, to go with M and do not regret it – it's true the cut is slightly looser, but that's exactly what I prefer.

A nicely designed sweatshirt in a neutral style, with a casual/sporty feel and a hint of military cut. The material is dense/thick... not some pseudo leftovers from sports brands with a big logo. I recommend it.
-
Great hoodie, it seems solid and of good quality, made from durable material. Before the first use, I washed it quickly and didn't notice any loss of quality. It shrank just a little, as expected. I am 180 cm tall and weigh 88 kg, average build, I chose size M in green. I really like the cut – the length of the sleeves and the whole hoodie are perfect for me. In this size, the hoodie fits well and the stretchy fabric lets me move freely. I am happy to buy more colors!
-
The hoodie looks great. It is extremely comfortable, has a tactical style and practical pockets. The hood is adjustable and keeps you warm, and the patches on the sleeves are very useful. I can wholeheartedly recommend it for everyday use.
-
I'm a bit disappointed with this sweatshirt. The cut is nice, it's warm, but it pills after just one wash... It's a shame, because I expected much more at this price and from this company.
-
Really nice sweatshirt, thick, made of solid material. Sweatshirts from chain stores, even the more expensive ones, stretch out quickly for me, but this one has lasted 5 months without any damage. The extra pockets, including in the kangaroo pocket, are really helpful. I'm buying another one in a different color.

Great hoodie – practical, well-made, and durable. The craftsmanship quality is flawless and meets this brand’s standards. However, keep in mind that the sizes run large, so it’s better to order a size smaller than usual.
-
I am delighted with the sweatshirt. It is superbly made, and the material is fantastic, thick, substantial, and pleasant to the touch. The pockets are practically designed. Top-notch product. Highly recommended.
-
Another excellent product from Helikon, I already own several of their items and they are always solid and of high quality. This hoodie is also great, I chose the model in blue, and it has plenty of functional pockets. I went for XXL size, I weigh 100 kg, I'm 186 cm tall, and I don't like tight-fitting clothes. This size turned out to be perfect for me, the hoodie is very comfortable, has good thickness, and I really like it.

Size L fits perfectly for 187 cm and 85 kg. Cool version with a small hidden pocket. Good quality workmanship. The hood is spacious, which is what I wanted so that the over-ear headphones won't press.

Over a year ago, I bought the red version, now the black one. During this time, I haven’t noticed any decrease in quality (compared to the first sweatshirt). A high standard is maintained. Compared to chain store products, this is on a different level. After a year of regular wear, there is practically no visible wear. The material is sturdy and massive. Be careful with the size—an S corresponds to an M size commonly used in terms of width, total length, and sleeve length. 176 cm, 65 kg—it’s spacious. I highly recommend it, the sweatshirt is worth its price. A good feature is the additional zippered pockets—small valuable items are protected from getting lost. The black color is very deep, the zipper is solid, and the sleeve cuffs are strong. More expensive than the competition, but you can immediately see what you’re paying for and that the price is justified.

I am very surprised that there are no reviews here yet, and this sweatshirt definitely deserves them. It is very comfortable, pleasant to the touch, and very functional. You can tell someone really thought this through. I am 182cm tall, weigh 100kg, and the size XL is perfect—maybe if I weighed 5kg less, it would be ideal. The sweatshirt can be zipped up high, which protects your neck from the wind, and it's generally warm—just right for 10°C in spring or a cool summer evening in the mountains. I intend to buy another one in a different color. I highly recommend it!
