This is already my second shirt of this type, this time I chose the colour Cider Plaid. I liked my previous purchase so much that I decided to get another one. What convinced me above all was the quality of the material – it’s stretchy and has extra pockets secured with sturdy YKK zippers. My phone fits easily into the pocket, and despite its weight the shirt sits really well. It’s a great choice for summer days when you want lighter pockets in your trousers. The only downside is the chest pockets which are fastened with Velcro; they are quite strong and make a loud sound when opening. Apart from that, I’m completely satisfied with the purchase. I am 175 cm tall, weigh 65 kg, and wear size XS – the sleeves are the right length and the shirt isn’t tight. For comparison, I often buy size M in Vistula, and XS from Helikon is very similar and fits well.

Very high quality workmanship and careful stitching. I chose the shirt in Stone Plaid colour, size XS. The material is light, but doesn't feel fragile. A big advantage is the horizontal stretch, while vertically the fabric is less elastic, which helps the shirt maintain the proper shape. Size XS fits perfectly for someone who is 175 cm tall and weighs 65 kg. The sleeves are the right length, and the shirt sits comfortably and does not cling to the chest or stomach (for a slim figure). I highly recommend it – a very comfortable shirt.

Although the Helikon size chart can be unclear for me, I have never had any doubts about the quality of their products. This shirt works great for everyday use – it is comfortable, practical, breathable, and at the same time maintains an elegant appearance.

Looks very stylish, by the way, I always buy size M, but here size S fit me as if it was tailor-made for me!!))) Be sure to carefully read the size charts, everything is correct there!! Measure yourself with a tape before buying. The collar stretches, and the material itself stretches a bit, it's cool, perfect for summer))) The highest rating, I didn't think shirts could be worth their price that much. There is also ventilation under the arms, lots of pockets, looks like some kind of tourist, a navy seal or an IT guy, so it suits everyone. The checkered pattern is nice, I really liked it!! If you catch it at the promotional price, then it's generally great.

I bought it for everyday use. The shirt is very lightweight and at the same time strong. The placement of the pockets is very well thought out and extremely functional. I'm not too keen on the colour, it looks like a classic shirt. But I've got used to it and now use it with pleasure. I'm satisfied with the product and recommend it.

This garment came true to size. Is very well made and extremely comfortable to wear. The price is also excellent. It came very well packaged and the delivery was fast all so

The Helikon Defender Mk2 City shirt perfectly combines functionality and style. The material is pleasant to the touch, breathable, and carefully made. The cut ensures comfort when worn, and the shirt looks elegant both on a daily basis and during outdoor activities. The finish is of a high standard – definitely worth its price!

This is a very good shirt – bought a few weeks ago and recently put to the test on a trip to Italy. I was afraid of overheating because of the synthetic material, but it did not happen at all. In the heat of Tuscany (about 39-41 degrees), it performed excellently – it protects from the sun and copes better than shirts made of thin linen or cotton. I am really pleasantly surprised – the material is elastic and comfortable, and the double layers at the pockets do not cause any discomfort, including thermal discomfort. I am very satisfied and already thinking about buying another in a different colour.

The shirt was a great purchase – very comfortable, fits well, and the material is thin and pleasant to the touch. It is slightly elastic, so it does not restrict movement, and the sizes are appropriate. I can confidently recommend both the product and the shop.

The shirt is in a class of its own. It has a great quality-to-price ratio. It looks, I can confidently say, elegant, and at the same time is comfortable and breathes well. The ventilation panels under the arms do a great job. It works not only at work, on the range, but also for going out to town or for a social gathering.

An excellent shirt – both in terms of material, quality of workmanship, and the arrangement of pockets and mesh panels under the arms. The check pattern is universal, so the shirt can be worn not only to work or outdoors but also for a family gathering. The sizing is fine. A very successful purchase for a reasonable price.

The Helikon Defender shirt looks great. It is comfortable, lightweight and very attractive in colour. The mesh inserts facilitate ventilation and prevent sweating. The material is airy and stretchy, which makes it comfortable to wear. Two hidden, spacious zipped pockets are perfect for storing documents, phone or wallet. It is quite long, but thanks to the efficient size exchange system at Militaria.pl, you can easily choose the right one.

Nice, carefully made. The material is pleasant to the touch, providing comfort when wearing. In my opinion, there’s quite a difference between size L and XL. For now, I can recommend it.

The shirt is great. Size L fits perfectly for a height of 180 cm. Well made, light, with spacious and deep pockets. An additional advantage is a place for sunglasses. Fast order processing. I recommend it.

I recently saw the Helikon Defender Mk2 City - Cider Plaid shirt at a friend's, who praised it as a regular customer of the shop. I chose a different model myself, and he stuck with this one. The material is really excellent quality, and the size is perfectly matched. The sleeves are not too long like with some other manufacturers. Solid company, highly recommended.
