    A very convenient and pleasant item that combines almost incompatible qualities – ventilation and warmth. Excellent set of pockets with handy zips. A successful model. I wish there was one made from a thicker material like this.

    The small checked pattern is very nice, there are really large pockets everywhere. On the other hand, Helikon Tex rhymes with lightness so everything is thin. It's not a thick fleece, and everything is breathable.

    Great fleece, I can recommend it. I followed a friend's advice to get a more fitted size, so I chose L, but it turned out to be a bit small – next time I would choose XL. I am 184 cm tall and weigh 95 kg. It worked perfectly as a layer under the Helikon level 7 jacket, it was really warm!

    A great jacket, not too thick and not too thin. You can wear it on cool evenings in summer or under your coat in winter. It also has many pockets to store items that you should always have with you.

    Plesant fabric, good workmaship. Used as top and middle layer, both EDC and service. Very comfortable and with wide "temperature comfort" window. In case of sweating, allows vapor out well. Protection against wind chill is up to mild wind (but its due to construction), but you can solve this making it middle layer by puting on even thin top layer (parka, wind jacket). For tight wear, T-shir size looks optimal, for more loose ad +1 size. Pockets are practical and accesible. Overall, its really good piece in your garderobe.

    The fleece provides a lot of warmth. It works perfectly as an additional layer, for example under a rain jacket, as it fits well and can easily be worn under another garment. The olive green colour is intense and attractive.

    The sweatshirt is really comfortable and pleasant, the only downside is that in size M it is a bit tight around the shoulders. Other than that, it's a great product that I can recommend without hesitation.

    Great fleece. A combination of warmth and ventilation thanks to the material. Very convenient chest pocket with inner compartments for small items and a torch. Good cut. Full compliance with the European size chart. Overall rating 9 out of 10.

    Absolutely 10/10 quality. Thick strong material, top finishes and perhaps best clothing item I've bought in years. Fast delivery a bonus. Strong recommendation from Finland.

    Great fleece from Helikon – very comfortable, stretchy and fits the body well. Made from a durable, breathable material that perfectly protects the neck from the cold and is very warm in itself. The colour looks excellent. I ordered both the black and olive versions. I am 183 cm tall and weigh 75 kg – size M was a bit too short, while L fits perfectly. I wholeheartedly recommend this product.

    Excellent fleece from Helikon – very comfortable, flexible, and fits the body well. Made from durable and breathable material. It effectively protects the neck from the cold, and the fleece itself is very warm. The colour looks fantastic. I bought both the black and olive versions. I am 183 cm tall and weigh 75 kg; size M seemed a bit too short for me, while size L fits perfectly. Highly recommended.

    Really impressed with the Helikon-Tex Alpha Tactical Fleece overall. The material feels high quality, warm, and comfortable without being too heavy, making it great for layering or wearing on its own in cooler weather. The design is practical and well thought out, with useful pockets and a solid build. The fit does feel slightly smaller than the size chart suggests, although that may just be due to the more athletic cut of the fleece. It’s not a major issue as it’ll be used more of a mid layer, but something to keep in mind if you prefer a looser fit. Overall, still a great piece of kit and I’m very happy with it.

    I believe the sweatshirt is excellent – very comfortable and breathable, which makes it perfect as a mid-layer. This is thanks to the structure of the material, which in my opinion is its main advantage. There are plenty of pockets, which is no surprise as it's a Helikon product. I usually wear size M and this size fits me perfectly. I am very satisfied with the purchase.

    Very nice product with the typical high quality from Helikon. It's a matter of personal taste, but the workmanship is flawless. I own it in size L, with a height of 1.90 m and a weight of 85 kilos.

    Great sweatshirt! In reality, it's thin, but despite that, it provides plenty of warmth. For such a thin material, it really protects well against the cold. I am 182 cm tall and weigh 86 kg, size M fits perfectly! The sweatshirt fits well – not too loose and not too tight, just perfect. I feel that if there is a promotion, I will be tempted to get another colour :-)!
