Helikon Defender Mk2 Tropical Long Sleeve Shirt - Castle Rock
Comfortable and lightweight shirt made of quick-dry and stretchy material designed for any activity, both in the field and in the city.
Defender Mk2 shirt is dedicated primarily to uniformed service officers, but also to active people who appreciate high quality and practical use. Its rather loose fit perfectly matches the anatomy of movement a low-profile ballistic vest or an IWB holster (Inside the Waistband).
The lightweight and breathable fabric of the shirt will be very suitable for hiking or everyday use in the city on warmer days. Mesh panels under the arms provide additional air circulation under the shirt. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) for the Defender Mk2 shirt is >30.
A loop has been sewn onto the button bar for conveniently hanging glasses. A small stiffening in the front part under the collar prevents it from rolling.
The shirt has four pockets located at chest level:
- two main pockets, with Velcro flaps, with access from the top,
- two Napoleon pockets located behind the main pockets, closed with a lightweight and durable zipper.
