March of 20km at -8°C with a backpack weighing about 10-12kg. Underneath, I wore Smartwool Intraknit and this combat shirt. Penetrating wind around 20km/h. While marching, it was warm (comfortable). During breaks over 10 minutes in such weather, it's worth putting something else on. I suspect it would be comfortable up to about 20 minutes. As for the shoulder pads, they did their job for almost the entire route. At the end, I did feel a bit of the load, but it would have been much worse from the very start throughout the whole march. The back pad provided comfort and air circulation. I wasn’t sweaty anywhere, but credit should also go to the Smartwool Intraknit, which goes well with the combat shirt. I didn’t feel the backpack at all where the back pad was, maybe because almost all the weight rested on my hips. At the shooting range at -10 to -15°C for about 4-5 hours, underneath I wore Smartwool + Devold Expedition + Woolpower 400, everything fit under size L and it was comfortable. Wearing a plate carrier, I didn’t feel it thanks to the AirPack pads on the shoulders and back. It’s a pity there are no hip pads here like in the summer Combat Striker Gen 3. The color is slightly brown, it’s a shame it’s not green. My friend has the same one bought last year in true green like the Combat Striker Gen 3. Also, it’s too bad there’s no place for elbow inserts. Worn under pants and on top. Wind was not felt on the body, only on the hands when taking off gloves or on the face. Light snowfall didn’t bother it. Probably for heavy rain, something more protective would be needed. Overall rating is very good. For now, worth the money because it doesn’t restrict movement either. The front pockets also provide a lot of space, but with a backpack with a hip belt or a tactical belt below, you can't use them because the hip belt aligns with those pockets. If someone wants, they can lower the belt or open and close the pockets during breaks, as it’s hard to do while marching. The collar is very comfortable. Closing the zipper diagonally is a bit difficult at the moment, you need to get used to it.

When buying this Combat Shirt, I was guided by opinions, and I'm glad I took them into account!!! This Combat Shirt is a total game changer, it's fantastic!!! Just bought, but already tested... with thermal underwear and this Combat Shirt, and the current weather is no threat. It's not cheap, but for the craftsmanship, it's worth the money. Just for reference: height 190 cm, weight 96-98 kg, size XL is perfect, because the sleeves are the right length and there is room underneath for thermal underwear.

Without a doubt, my favorite piece of tactical clothing. Ideal for temperatures from -5 to +5 degrees. Comfortable, plus a large ventilation area when the zippers are opened, does not overheat. The pads on the shoulders and back are very helpful. The price is not low, but for intense activity in light frost, it's better than any down jacket.

Super combat shirt – tested by a "cold-sensitive person" in conditions from +5 to -7 (feels like -11), and I didn’t get cold or sweat excessively. Additionally, these "pads" really improve the comfort of wearing a vest for long periods. Cons: - Price (it is terribly expensive, but I don’t regret it – two months of bank transfers from WOT went into it and, although this wasn’t my first purchase, if you want to seriously upgrade your gear, I recommend it) - Ridiculous fastening: it’s angled and you intuitively want to fasten it the other way... it’s not a big deal, you’ll get used to it after a few uses, but I’m noting it for the record - The collar drawstring could be better - Remember, there’s no place there for "chocolates"/other elbow protectors – buy separately! But the above cons don’t change the fact that this is really a purchase worth stretching yourself for.

It may seem like it's just a slightly insulated combat shirt. Nothing could be further from the truth. This is a real winter jacket in the form of a combat shirt. One of the best and most unique products by UF Pro. I definitely recommend it.

The best combat shirt I've ever had. I wear it to the shooting range and into the forest, incredibly comfortable. It doesn't restrict movement at all. I only wear a tight merino wool thermal shirt (from Brubeck) underneath, and that's it. Tested at 0°C on a windy day during a 15-kilometer forest hike—comfortable the whole time, and at one point I even had to open the vents because it was too warm.

The shirt can even replace a jacket at -10°C; it's top combat quality and feels like you're wearing nothing, doesn't restrict movement. If you spend a lot of time on tactical activities outdoors, this is a great choice. Unlike a fleece jacket or similar, it doesn't restrict movement but still provides thermal comfort—simply top-of-the-line merchandise.

Probably the best combat shirt money can buy. It's very warm and suitable to wear instead of a jacket in the cold. Top-quality. If you can afford to spend as much as for a red dot sight on a combat shirt, I definitely recommend it.
