This Helikon MBDU NyCo Rip-Stop shirt in multicam black really is a top quality shirt. Very nice comfortable tailored fit, large discreet pockets on the chest plus decent size pockets on the arms. The breathable mesh under the armpits is a nice touch now the weather is warming up. I've got quite a lot of clothes by Helikon-Tex and it's always top quality gear and this shirt is no exception. I love it. Recommended.

MultiCam camouflage
MultiCam is a state-of-the-art camouflage pattern developed in 2002 by US company Crye Precision in cooperation with the United States Army Soldier Systems Center (Natick Labs) as part of the Objective Force Warrior program. Its goal was to create a versatile camouflage pattern that is effective in varied terrain and changing environmental conditions. The MultiCam pattern consists of seven colors, creating gradient transitions between shades of green, brown and beige. As a result, it dynamically adapts to the background, adopting shades of green in forested areas or browns and beiges in desert regions - in Central and Eastern European environments, it works particularly well in autumn and among dry vegetation. MultiCam has gained worldwide recognition and is used by numerous armed forces and special units. In 2010, the camouflage was officially adopted by the US Army as the camouflage pattern for soldiers stationed in Afghanistan, replacing the earlier Universal Camouflage Pattern (UCP). The pattern is also available to civilian users, making it a popular choice among military or airsoft enthusiasts.

Great sweatshirt, definitely surpasses the SFU model. Although the material is also not stretchy, it fits better straight away and is more comfortable. Additional pockets would certainly be useful, but apart from that I have no complaints. Highly recommend, very practical item of clothing.
