An excellent jacket modeled on the contract issue one. Very well made, with great external fastening pockets as well as hand-warmer pockets. Unlike the contract version, this one does not have hook-and-loop fasteners - instead, it has snaps. Thin, lightweight, and it fulfills its role. An advantage is the modification - these are zippers at the base of the sleeves. In the original concept for this system, it is meant to be worn under a windproof jacket, hence its minimal thickness. For additional thermal protection, an insulating jacket or a sweater is used.

Honestly, I’m a bit disappointed — it’s basically just a heat-sealed piece of water-resistant material. When I unpacked it, it felt like I was holding ordinary plastic film in my hands. The jacket does do its job, but in my opinion it won’t work well for everyday use.

Great rain jacket — I’ve been wearing an identical one in the Arid MC Camo version for 4 years now, in size XL. Unfortunately, this model in British Camo DPM camouflage was only available in size L, so I hope it won’t turn out to be too small. Even so, at this price it is definitely worth it, especially since this color variant is hard to find and has become much more expensive. I can wholeheartedly recommend it for the two-way zippers on the front and under the arms, as well as the back ventilation. The two outer pockets have mesh inside, and behind them there are also additional slip pockets.

I bought the jacket some time ago this year. And just a few days before Christmas, I had the opportunity to test it due to the weather conditions. The material is solid, seams are taped, the zipper is covered, and the pockets are deep and convenient. It performs excellently in rain and accompanying gusty wind. Of course, it is recommended to wear a warm inner clothing layer – it was tested at the seaside. The material may seem a bit stiff, but you can get used to it. Overall, the jacket is worth recommending, it does its job.

I had the opportunity to use this jacket during heavy rain and I stayed completely dry – the waterproofing is flawless. The British-style camo looks classic and fits perfectly in Central European forests. The underarm ventilation zippers are a big advantage. In summary, this is a solid rain jacket for tactical use, and its price is not as high as with outdoor brands.

I am positively surprised that the product performed well during the first rain tests and in cooler conditions. The material is of high quality and is solidly sewn. For this model, I recommend a quilted lining or wearing a sweater underneath to prevent moisture from forming inside. The waterproofness makes it harder to dissipate heat and moisture, which promotes condensation. It is worth using the ventilation openings under the arms and partially unzipping the jacket. I believe the product is worth its price and I sincerely recommend it.

I bought several products here and I am satisfied with them – they are solidly made and of good quality. However, you have to remember that this is not the highest possible standard. Compared to other stores or platforms, the offered products match the descriptions and photos, including technical specifications and article information. I think it's worth shopping at this place.
