A lightweight, reversible jacket with a hood designed to deliver exceptional thermal comfort in cold conditions. The exterior utilizes tough, quick-drying WindPack nylon, enhanced with an additional waterproof coating. The jacket is insulated with Climashield Apex synthetic fill at 67 g/m2, ensuring excellent warmth retention even when damp and providing outstanding warmth-to-weight efficiency.

Secured by a one-way YKK zipper with an integrated chin guard, the jacket features elastic binding at the hem, cuffs, and hood edge to offer reliable protection from wind intrusion. The hood includes an adjustable drawstring with a stopper and a soft brim. Underarm panels made from elastic and breathable VersaStretch material are incorporated to optimize ventilation.

The Wolfhound Hoodie comes with two hand pockets, a zippered chest pocket, and three internal pockets, all featuring YKK zippers for secure storage. A reversible construction offers adaptability in appearance for various environments and seasons. The shoulder is outfitted with a Velcro panel for attaching badges or emblems.

Highly compressible for convenient packing, the jacket can be stowed in a compact pouch, making it a practical choice for extended expeditions as well as daily wear.

Camouflage Desert Night Camo

Desert Night Camo (DNC) represents a unique camouflage pattern engineered by the US Army in the 1980s specifically for night missions in desert environments. Intended to be worn as an overlay on standard uniforms, its primary deployment took place during Operation Desert Storm in the Persian Gulf. Featuring a distinctive grid pattern of dark green squares and crosses set against an olive-green background, the design aimed to disrupt the visibility offered by early enemy night vision technology. While field performance showed moderate success in obscuring detection by night vision equipment, it stood out as a pioneering development in night-time camouflage solutions.

Camouflage US Desert (3 Color Desert)

US Desert, also referred to as 3 Color Desert, is a camouflage pattern engineered to replace the earlier 6 Color Desert Pattern. Developed in 1990 and officially adopted in 1992 for deployment in the Middle East, the pattern features a palette of three colors: beige, pale green, and brown. This combination enabled a more streamlined micro-pattern and decreased the overall contrast compared to its predecessor. Such a design enhanced performance in arid, sandy terrains and addressed the issue of fabric overheating. Widely utilized by the US military, including during Operation Desert Storm as well as in Iraq and Afghanistan, this camouflage proved highly effective in desert operations.

    Great idea for a jacket that works well during the colder months – thanks to its reversible design, you don't have to keep it in your closet only for snowy days, as it's also suitable for cold but dry conditions. It packs down very small, so it's easy to take with you thanks to the included pouch. The only downside is the thin outer material, which could be more durable. The fit is quite wide – it doesn't look particularly attractive, but it's practical and does a good job of masking the figure.

    Nice, warm jacket, it seems thin but it passed the test at -12°C. Thanks to the drawstrings in the hood and waist, it doesn't let wind in or let heat escape. The jacket is very comfortable, doesn't restrict movement, but it's also not baggy or too fluffy. And a big plus for the double PenCott camouflage—it makes an impression. I recommend it.

    This is the second jacket of this model I purchased, but this time I was hunting for the reversible version, and now it's in my closet next to the old single-sided one. I recommend this jacket to everyone.

    I bought it on sale, I really like that it's reversible—perfect for winter, and pretty good in autumn too. From what I could tell, it's really light, compresses well, and is great to use. I recommend it... but only on sale :D

    The Helikon jacket is truly a universal choice—it works great as an insulating or warming layer. The VersaStretch panel under the arms and the adjustable hood with visor add comfort, and the ability to compress makes the jacket easy to pack and carry.

    Helikon as always, nothing sensational. The jacket should be a bit looser at the waist – it will be hard to fasten if you carry something at the belt. The idea with the double-sided print is VERY GOOD and it would be nice to have more such clothes, with combinations for summer/winter and summer/autumn. And yes, the Wolfhound is a lightweight jacket for autumn. In winter, only for physical activity or when combined with something additional and warmer.

    This is already the second jacket of this model in my wardrobe, but in a different camouflage. For me, it's perfect for the city. When I bought the first one, I was worried that the outer material seemed a bit too thin—needlessly, because the jacket was worn all winter and there are no visible signs of use.

    A friend recommended the jacket to me, who is very satisfied with it, and I 100% confirm. It is very light and packs down nicely. The insulation is so well chosen that during moderate effort, it doesn't get too warm.

    Another Wolfhound in the collection, the jacket is perfect, the insulation has been tested in all conditions, the color was the deciding factor, unfortunately there are few products in Snowdrift available on the market.

    The jacket has insulation and at the same time is very light. Being reversible is also a plus. It doesn't let the wind through. It's a very functional thing; the soldier for whom I bought it wears the jacket even in winter during mild frosts.

    Great jacket, very compact (takes up very little space). During a long march in winter weather, I was neither too cold nor too hot in it.
