After wearing it for a longer time, the sleeves become uncomfortable, they are very narrow. It’s hard to wear a watch, and taking off the sweatshirt can be troublesome. Additionally, it seems a bit too airy.

Typical Helikon – solid appearance, functionality and a nice cut. Is it worth its full price? In my opinion, not quite. After a week of use, the sleeves started to pill. The hood could be deeper. The material is quite thin, it’s okay for around 15°C with no wind. The cuffs are really tight – you can't roll up the sleeves. If it cost 70% of the current price, I would recommend it without hesitation.

For a Helikon brand, this size fits very well. I usually wear M and here M also fits perfectly. The sleeves are the right length, the sweatshirt is not too short. Good quality, unusual colour (it resembles a jumper a little bit).
-
Very good sweatshirt – looks elegant while maintaining its tactical style. It has many practical pockets. The material is breathable and reminds me of wool. Unfortunately, it pills quickly. Despite this, I recommend it.
-
The sweatshirt is very well made, even better than many branded models. Very comfortable, with numerous pockets, made of pleasant material and in a comfortable cut. I recommend it.
-
Very good sweatshirt, comfortable and warm. It has many pockets, and the hidden ones are almost invisible. Unfortunately, the cuffs on the sleeves are definitely too narrow, so it is not possible to roll up the sleeves.
-
Very good sweatshirt, it would get the highest rating if it was made in Poland. The sleeves are very tight on the forearms and you can't roll them up. Apart from that, the zips work well, the sweatshirt is warm and comfortable. The colour is as shown in the picture. Looks a bit like a jumper.
-
The sweatshirt is very comfortable, although the sizing seems a bit on the large side – at 182 cm tall and 85 kg, it is a little too big, but for autumn this could be an advantage. Very well made and sturdy zips.
-
This sweatshirt is great for everyday wear, as always from Helikon a good size and quality. Unfortunately, the material pills and easily catches on the shirt underneath. Despite this, I'm happy with the purchase – size L for 185 cm and 75 kg has a bit of room, so you can wear a jumper underneath.
-
The sweatshirt is comfortable and quite loose, but the cuffs at the wrists are very tight. It's hard to put on with a watch on, although the material can be stretched slightly. The pockets are great!
-
The sweatshirt looks very soft and is pleasant to the touch, and the workmanship is good. It works well for cooler days. The downside is that the material pills very quickly.
-
The sweatshirt is fine, very comfortable, but as other people have already mentioned, the cuffs are terrible. The sleeve from the elbow down, and especially the cuff itself, seems as if made for children or very slim women. I barely managed to get my hand through, even though I don't have large hands.
-
A very nice sweatshirt and another successful product from Helikon. It looks great in person, and the material is exceptionally pleasant. The only downside is the very tight cuffs on the sleeves, which make it difficult to check the time on your watch. At 170 cm tall and 72 kg, size S fits perfectly. The idea with closable side pockets is great.
-
Yet another sweatshirt from Helikon. They still maintain high quality. Highly recommended. Zipped pockets are very functional. You’ll need a jacket for colder days.
-
The sweatshirt is warm and very comfortable, something between a sweater and a sweatshirt. The size matches the chart, although compared to my other Helikon sweatshirts in XL, this one seems more fitted despite having identical dimensions in the description. The cuffs on the sleeves are long and fit well. The hidden zippered pockets inside the kangaroo pockets are very practical. The biggest downside is that the material pills a lot, but the melange colour masks it, so you can't see it on the garment – still, it's a slight negative.
