Helikon-Tex Tramontane WindPack Nylon Field Jacket - wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland
Ultralight air rifle with a regular fit in wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland camouflage, intended for tactical activities, tourism, and everyday wear in changing weather. The construction is made of densely woven Windpack Nylon with a hydrophobic DWR coating and IRR/NIR technology, which effectively protects against wind and reduces visibility in night vision. The design features an integrated, adjustable hood, a YKK zip, and a self-pack system that allows the entire jacket to be packed into its own chest pocket.
Windpack Nylon material, hydrophobic DWR coating, and IRR/NIR technology
The outer layer is made of ultralight Windpack Nylon fabric with a grammage of 40 g/m2, distinguished by optimal breathability, quick drying, and very good protection against the chilling effect of wind. The material is protected with a hydrophobic DWR coating (Durable Water Repellency), which makes it harder for moisture to penetrate the fabric structure, slows soaking, and makes dirt easier to remove. The fabric has undergone IRR/NIR treatment (Near Infrared / Infrared Reflective), thanks to which it absorbs and reflects near-infrared radiation in a way similar to the natural forest environment, effectively reducing the contrast of the silhouette in night vision devices.
ergonomic hood with visor, elastic cuffs
The jacket’s construction was developed with an emphasis on maximum minimalism and very low weight, which is why it works well as an emergency outer layer. The ergonomic hood, finished with elastic trim and a lightly stiffened visor, can be adjusted, ensuring effective head protection without narrowing the field of view. The cuffs are equipped with sewn-in elastic bands, while the lower edge of the jacket is complemented by a drawstring, allowing for a precise fit and reducing cold air from blowing underneath.
self-pack system
The model is equipped with one practical chest pocket closed with a zip, intended for carrying small pieces of equipment. Thanks to the integrated self-pack system, it also serves as a carry pouch that fits the entire folded jacket.
YKK main closure
The main closure is a zip from the renowned Japanese brand YKK, allowing the jacket to be put on quickly and enabling smooth adjustment of air circulation.

wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland camouflage
The wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland camouflage pattern is the camouflage currently in use by the Armed Forces of the Republic of Poland - the first camouflage pattern designed and introduced for widespread use in the Third Polish Republic. The 1993 pattern offers a combination of mimetic and disruptive properties thanks to the use of irregular patches of varying sizes. The colour scheme, based on green, brown, and black, was adapted to the conditions of Polish forests, making “Pantera” a fitting choice for operations in local terrain. Uniforms in this camouflage are also standard equipment for students of Military Uniformed Classes.

Materials with IRR (Infrared Reflective) properties are designed to maximize the absorption and minimize the mission of infrared radiation, which is important for camouflage and avoiding detection by observation devices such as night vision devices.
DWR (Durable Water Repellency) is a durable waterproofing treatment that increases the surface tension of water and creates a hydrophobic coating on materials. It protects the material from rapid soaking, improves drying, provides stain resistance and increases breathability.
YKK zippers are high-quality zippers commonly used in clothing and accessories, manufactured by the Japanese YKK Corporation - one of the world's largest zipper manufacturers.
Selfpack is a specially designed pocket located inside the jacket. It is used to fold and stow the jacket into a compact pack, making it easy to transport and store. With this solution, the jacket can be easily packed and carried without the need for additional covers or bags.
WindPack is an ultralight material used in outdoor clothing that provides protection from wind and light rain. It is characterized by high durability, yet is easy to fold, allowing it to be packed into a minimal size.
