This is already my second Urban Tactical Hoodie Lite – I have the first one in red and am very satisfied with it, so I decided to go for the black version. It fits great – even though the size is large, the hoodie adapts well and isn't tight. Finally, a true XXL for a big guy, not some Chinese XXXXXXL. The hoodie is warm and doesn't stretch. The zippers and seams are fine. I use it on its own or as an extra layer under a jacket. I definitely recommend it.
Warm, all-year-round hoodie fastened with YKK zipper.
The cut of the hoodie promotes freedom of movement and excellent ventilation under the garment layer. The deep hood protects against the cold, as well as wind and precipitation.
The hoodie has 6 pockets:
- two classic hip pockets,
- a hidden zippered pocket (located in the right pocket),
- two internal mesh pockets,
- a smaller pocket on the left shoulder.
In addition, on the left sleeve there is a velcro panel measuring 11 x 9 cm, that allows you to attach any emblems, such as the national flag, unit emblem or so-called Morale Patches, so you can give the hoodie an individual character.
Temperature retention under the hoodie is provided by elastic welts. The high main zipper closure creates a collar that protects the neck and face from unfriendly weather conditions.

After the first wash, despite following the instructions on the label, the sweatshirt looks like a worn-out rag. It has become very bobbled and is only suitable for cleaning shoes at best. I am extremely disappointed with the Helikon brand.
-
The sweatshirt is excellent. The size matches the description perfectly. This is my second sweatshirt from this brand – I already have the black version, and this green one is great. The sweatshirt itself is very well made, from high-quality material, and is really warm – I even wear it in winter and it works perfectly. It's hard to find anything better at this price.

This is my first Helikon sweatshirt and I was pleasantly surprised – it’s warm and fits well. However, I had to exchange it for a larger size, which often happens when shopping online. I’m curious how it will perform in daily use. I chose size L at a height of 178 cm and weight of 78 kg. I recommend this purchase.
-
This is already the third sweatshirt from this brand in my collection – if I’m buying another one, it means I’m satisfied :) The sweatshirt is very well made, the material is of great quality, and the number of pockets suits me perfectly. I definitely recommend it!

This is already my third hoodie from Helikon. The product is excellently made and extremely warm. The sizes match the description. I really appreciate the large number of pockets, which is characteristic of this brand. The hoodie is very durable and strong, definitely worth its price. It has never let me down. I highly recommend this product to everyone.

This is already my next sweatshirt in the Green shade from this line. I think it's great – very comfortable, warm, and made with attention to detail. The inner pockets are very practically arranged. I wholeheartedly recommend it. Shipping was, as always, express.
-
I really like the sweatshirt, it is warm and fully meets my requirements. The pockets are practical, and the zip in the inner pocket is a great solution. I would gladly choose this product again. The shop service was exemplary and the package arrived the day after placing the order.

The sweatshirt is ideal. Very well made, high-quality material, and after a few days it seems durable for everyday use. It's also functional.
-
This is a great sweatshirt – warm, pleasant to the touch and it has plenty of pockets, which is a huge plus when travelling. Excellent for cooler days, does not restrict movement. Ideal for spring and autumn.
-
A warm and comfortable sweatshirt in great colours and with excellent material, lots of pockets and a place for a patch. The hood is not very deep, the size is perfect – sleeves are fitted, the bottom is a bit longer, but can be rolled up slightly.
-
Excellent sweatshirt, pleasant material, lots of pockets, but they don’t stand out. Helikon’s sizing as always spot on – I chose XL and it fits perfectly as always. All things considered, I give 5 out of 5. I recommend!
-
I bought my first one a long time ago—with time, from sitting at a desk and washing, the sleeves wore out, but after all these years I decided to order two more. I hope they will be as good as the previous one.

Very high quality and extremely warm sweatshirt. The number of pockets is an advantage, as is standard for Helikon. Super durable and sturdy, worth its price, never let me down. I recommend it to everyone.
