This is already my second jacket of this model, this time I chose the reversible version, which now hangs next to the older, single-sided one. I highly recommend it.
A lightweight double-sided hooded jacket for high thermal comfort on cold days. The outer layer is made of durable, quick-drying WindPack nylon, which has been additionally treated with DWR impregnation. The interior is filled with 67 g/m2 Climashield Apex synthetic insulation, which provides adequate warmth even when the fabric is wet and has an excellent weight-to-heat efficiency ratio.
The jacket is fastened with a one-way YKK zipper finished with a chin guard. Elastic piping at the bottom of the jacket, at the cuffs and at the edge of the hood effectively protects against wind penetration. The hood has a drawstring with stoppers and a soft peak. Under the armpits, inserts made from flexible and breathable VersaStretch fabric have been added for ventilation.
The Wolfhound Hoodie is equipped with two side pockets, a chest pocket and three inside pockets. All pockets are fastened with YKK zips. The double-sided design allows you to adapt your look to your surroundings or the season. A velcro panel has been sewn onto the shoulder to allow any patch or emblem to be attached.
The jacket is easily compressed. Can be packed into a small pouch. The jacket can be packed into a small pouch, making it suitable for longer expeditions as well as for everyday use.

I bought it on sale – I like the reversible feature, it's perfect for winter, and it works well in autumn too. In my opinion, the jacket is really lightweight, compresses brilliantly and is comfortable to use. I recommend it, but it's best to buy during a promotion :D

The Helikon jacket is a very versatile choice – it works well both as an insulating layer and for added warmth. The VersaStretch panel under the arms and the adjustable hood with peak increase comfort. Additionally, the jacket can be easily folded and carried thanks to the compression feature.
-
Helikon, as usual, no big surprises. The jacket could be a bit wider at the waist – it might be difficult to fasten if someone wears equipment on their belt. The double-sided print solution is a GREAT idea and it would be nice to see more such models, e.g., for summer/autumn and summer/winter seasons. In general, the Wolfhound is a lightweight jacket mainly for autumn. In winter, it's suitable for intense physical activity or as an additional, warmer layer.

This is already the second jacket of this type in my wardrobe, although in a different camouflage. I consider it perfect for the city. When buying the first one, I was a bit worried that the material seemed too thin, but it turned out to be completely unnecessary – I wore it in winter and it shows absolutely no signs of wear.
-
A friend recommended this jacket to me, and he is very satisfied with it, which I can fully confirm. It is exceptionally light and easy to pack. The insulation is designed so that during moderate activity it doesn't get too warm.
-
This is yet another Wolfhound jacket in my collection, it's perfect and its insulation works in all conditions. The colour was the deciding factor for me, it's just a pity there are so few products available in the Snowdrift version.
-
The jacket is insulated and very light. A big plus is the possibility to wear it on both sides. It protects against wind and works perfectly – the soldier it was bought for even wears it in winter, as long as the frost is not too severe.
-
Great jacket, very comfortable for trips as it takes up little space. During a long walk in winter, the temperature was perfect – I was neither too cold nor too hot.
