Helikon-Tex Urban Tactical Hoodie Lite Kangaroo - Grey

Hoodie made from a blend of cotton and polyester. The model is produced from a material combining breathable cotton (51%) and durable polyester (49%). The polyester lining provides thermal comfort. The fit of the hoodie allows for easy movement and ensures good ventilation under the clothing layer.

4 practical pockets

The hoodie has 4 pockets:

  • a kangaroo main pocket
  • a hidden pocket with a zip fastener (located above the main pocket)
  • 2 pockets located on the shoulders

velcro panels

The sleeves feature Velcro panels (hook-and-loop fasteners) measuring 11 x 9 cm, allowing the attachment of various emblems such as a national flag, unit insignia, or so-called Morale Patches, giving the garment an individual character.

Deep hood protects against cold, wind, and precipitation. Temperature maintenance under the hoodie is achieved through elastics. The high closure of the main zip forms a collar that protects the neck and face against adverse weather conditions.

    I highly recommend this sweatshirt! It is very comfortable, warm, and well made. I've been wearing the green version for several years now, it has been washed many times and used practically all year round – from spring to winter – and nothing has happened to it, which I can't say about products from other brands that I've tested during this time. Recently, I've also bought several other colours and I must admit that the quality, durability, and functionality of all Helikon Tex models are at the highest level when it comes to civilian clothing. The price is appropriate for the quality, and the number and organisation of the pockets (both kangaroo and the side ones sewn in from the inside up to the shoulders) are very well thought out. I don't see any flaws, I'm happy with my purchase, wholeheartedly recommend it, and the colours look much better in real life than in the photos – especially the olive green and the others I own: red, navy blue, and black. My opinion applies to all four sweatshirts that I currently use.

    Great sweatshirt, like most Helikon products. The material is pleasant to the skin, and the XL size really matches what the manufacturer declares, unlike current trends of reducing sizes for a 'slim fit.' I am 186 cm tall and have a 108 cm chest, and XL fits exactly how I like – it gives a bit of room and doesn't restrict movement. The sweatshirt has a slightly tactical character, Velcro patches on both shoulders for morale patches, and a practical, additional pocket just above the classic 'kangaroo' pocket. Well-thought-out solutions. Additionally, there are two extra pockets, one on each sleeve. I am very satisfied and definitely recommend it.

    Size: M

    For me, it’s a great hoodie that looks excellent both in terms of material and fit, and it’s also very comfortable to wear. It seems to be well made and looks like it could last quite a long time, which is very good for the price.

    This is a very comfortable sweatshirt that fits well and is ideal for everyday wear. In person, the colour looks very attractive, and an additional advantage is the practical, sensibly placed pockets. Overall, it combines comfort with functionality.

    I have been using the Urban Tactical Hoodie Lite Kangaroo Helikon-Tex sweatshirt for quite a while and I'm already on my fifth one, which pretty much sums up my level of satisfaction. Very comfortable for daily wear, practical cut, good freedom of movement, and the fabric is pleasant to wear both outdoors and for urban use. The pockets are well designed and sturdy, and Helikon-Tex quality is definitely there. It's a light but robust hoodie, perfect for mid-season or as a mid-layer. After several purchases, the quality remains consistent and its durability over time is excellent. For me, it has become a must-have.

    Fantastic sweatshirt, I regret that I didn't find it earlier. The pockets are brilliant. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for this type of sweatshirt. The size, as usual with Helikon, is perfect.

    Top, beautiful colour, delivered quickly, exactly as described, I like the pockets and the zips features. Overall, the sleeves are perhaps 1 cm too short.

    The sweatshirt is really warm; it will be great for cooler autumn and winter days. There are plenty of pockets, which increases wearing comfort. There are many colours available, so everyone can choose something suitable for themselves.

    I have three colour versions. There are other interesting hoodies on the market, often more expensive, but none (Uf, Pentagon) have such a well-designed zipped pocket. In other kangaroo hoodies, items can fall out while running, but here that's not a problem.

    It is better to choose a larger size than with other Helikon hoodies. This model is warmer than the Hoodie Light (with a zip), so it is suitable for colder days. It is comfortable and looks very good. Combined with the Gunfighter it makes a great set.

    It's just a sweatshirt. The label marking is interesting – instead of a print or a tag, there is an imprint. As for the downsides, the material is noticeably thinner than in the colourful models from 2–3 years ago. That's a shame, Helikon. Additionally, the shade of grey may disappoint those expecting a perfect grey. But that's not a major issue.

    The sweatshirt is warm, comfortable and carefully made – the seams are straight and the material looks solid and durable. The zip pocket at the front is a great addition that should be included in every sweatshirt of this type! The size runs quite small, so if you prefer looser clothes, I recommend ordering a larger size. However, if you like fitted clothing, choose your usual size.

    Very nice sweatshirt, fully worth its price. It is comfortable and has functional pockets. Size XL fits perfectly for 188 cm height and 100 kg weight, it is slightly fitted, which is the effect I wanted. I also have the version with a zipper and I can also recommend it.

    Very good quality – comfortable and keeps you warm. The pockets are functional. Ideal for colder days as an alternative to a jacket. Wide selection of colours. Definitely worth buying.

    The sweatshirt is great. It is extremely comfortable and well made. It is perfect for moderately cool days when you don't need to wear a jacket. The pockets are very functional and have plenty of space. The quality of workmanship is better than the zip version, and the hood is deeper.
