This jacket is fantastic. I bought it for my boyfriend, but in the end I kept it for myself. The XXL size is a bit too big for my height of 186 cm, but I like looser fits. It is really warm, and the inner fleece provides extra thermal comfort. There are enough pockets that you can easily do without a handbag. The workmanship and stitching are of the highest quality. Right after buying it, I tested it in the rain and the water ran off it really well. In my opinion, it is definitely worth buying.
Pentagon Artaxes Jacket - PentaCamo
A lightweight hooded jacket in PentaCamo camouflage, made of durable Softshell fabric. The StormTex membrane provides waterproofing at 8000 mm/m2 and breathability at 5000 g/m2. The outer layer of the fabric is protected with a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating, which protects against moisture and dirt. The interior is finished with soft fleece using Grid-Tech technology, offering effective protection against wind and precipitation while maintaining good thermal insulation.
8 spacious pockets
This design features 8 versatile pockets:
- two located at the chest area
- two positioned on the shoulders
- one situated on the left forearm
- two internal pockets, one equipped with a headphone port
- one at the back, known as a poacher's pocket, in the lumbar region
All pockets are secured with zips.
Two-way zip, ventilation openings
The main fastening is a two-way zip by YKK. The stand-up collar is finished with a soft fabric cover that protects the chin. There are ventilation openings under the arms, fastened with zips and finished with mesh, which improves air circulation and allows for temperature regulation.
Adjustable hood, high collar, reflective element
A high collar combined with a three-point adjustable hood ensures comfort even in heavy rain and strong winds. Protection against the cold is enhanced by Velcro-adjustable cuffs and drawstrings at the bottom of the jacket and hood. In conditions of limited visibility, the detachable reflective element on the hood will come in handy.
Velcro panels
Velcro panels on the shoulders allow to attach patches like flags, unit insignia, or Morale Patches, adding a personal touch to the jacket.

PentaCamo Camouflage
PentaCamo is a modern camouflage pattern developed by Pentagon Tactical, combining classic and contemporary approaches to masking. The pattern is inspired by the Greek Lizard camouflage, visible in a pattern of large, irregular spots, and the popular MultiCam, from which the color scheme was derived and small spots were added to improve the mimetic properties. PentaCamo uses shades of green, brown, and beige to provide effective camouflage in a variety of environments. It works particularly well in Central European conditions in autumn and early spring.

The three-layer nylon membrane, which provides high breathability and water resistance, allows moisture formed on the skin to evaporate during exertion, while protecting against soaking during harsh weather conditions.
DWR (Durable Water Repellency) is a durable waterproofing treatment that increases the surface tension of water and creates a hydrophobic coating on materials. It protects the material from rapid soaking, improves drying, provides stain resistance and increases breathability.
YKK zippers are high-quality zippers commonly used in clothing and accessories, manufactured by the Japanese YKK Corporation - one of the world's largest zipper manufacturers.
Grid-Tech is a technology used in the production of materials used in outdoor clothing. It improves the breathability, lightness and flexibility of garments, while increasing their strength and resistance to mechanical damage. It is often used in thermal insulation layers, providing thermal comfort and effective moisture wicking during physical activity.

Size: XL
The jacket is comfortable to wear, warm and comfortable, and resistant to rain and wind. The hood rolled up in the collar does not get in the way, so the collar is comfortable. I have size XL, and the size is accurate. I am very satisfied with the jacket.

Size: 3XL
The build quality is genuinely very good, and the Polish wz.93 Pantera camouflage looks excellent and faithfully reflects the original. The softshell provides great protection against strong wind and light rain, while the soft Grid-Tech fleece lining offers comfortable warmth on cooler days. Also worth praising are the hood hidden in the collar and the well-designed pockets on the shoulders and chest, which are easy to access. As for the drawbacks, the breathability could be a bit better. During more intense walking and in higher temperatures, it can feel too warm, even after opening the underarm vents. It is also worth noting the fairly fitted sizing — if you plan to wear a thicker jumper or fleece under the jacket, it is better to consider a larger size. In summary: this is a durable, functional, and comfortable jacket for spring and autumn. It definitely deserves its price!

The jacket material is elastic (2-way stretch) and does not restrict movement at all, which is extremely important during active use. The outer layer is treated with a dirt- and water-repellent DWR Teflon Grade 4 coating. During light rain or wet snow, water simply beads off without soaking through to the inside. The StormTex® membrane (8000 mm waterproofness, 5000 g/m² breathability) provides excellent protection against strong wind. Another advantage is the interior. The waffle-structured Grid-Tech® lining retains body heat very well in its “cells”, while at the same time preventing overheating when you are moving actively. If it gets too hot, large underarm ventilation openings with zips and protective mesh are provided.

Size: XL
The jacket is warm and feels comfortable against the skin. It does not restrict freedom of movement. The only downside is that the Velcro area on the sleeves is a bit small for attaching patches (flag). The hood can be rolled up and secured with Velcro, which makes the collar comfortable and not bothersome. The sizing is accurate; XL is truly XL. All in all, a good comfortable jacket.

I am 6 ft 2' (187/188 cm) tall and a slim 84 Kg in weight, I bought this jacket in a large. So far I have only worn a T shirt underneath it, but there is enough/plenty of room to layer up in colder weather. This jacket is generous with sleeve length which with my long arms I require. The jacket is everything I was looking for, its well designed, good quality and at a very reasonable price. The inside zip pockets are large enough to hold my wallet in one and my iphone 11 in the the other. The sleeve pockets are also big enough to hold my phone if I wished, but I just use them to hold my car and house keys. I haven't used the large rear pocket yet, but the breast pockets are large enough for gloves and hat. I cant comment on its water proofing yet, but I didn't buy it for that and if required it is light enough to throw a water proof jacket over it. I think this will make a great travel jacket, where all my documents and every day carries can be stored securely. Hope this helps

The jacket demonstrates high quality workmanship. It provides good thermal insulation, and the ventilation system works flawlessly. Unfortunately, the external rubberised Velcro on the sleeves comes off and needs repairing. Overall, the jacket is worth its price, especially during promotions.

Solid construction, very good thermal insulation and comfort both for everyday use and during outdoor trips. The jacket protects perfectly against wind and rain, and works well in slightly sub-zero temperatures as well as warmer, spring days. The numerous spacious and functional pockets are practical, as are the underarm ventilation openings and the hood, which can be stored in the collar.

Very good jacket! The Artaxes jacket from Pentagon is well made and exudes sturdiness. I recommend this jacket without hesitation. Pentagon always on top!

Really pleased with the Pentagon Artaxes Jacket so far. The quality feels excellent, with solid stitching and durable materials, and the fit is comfortable without being bulky. It’s lightweight but still feels tough enough for outdoor use, and the design looks great too. I haven’t had the chance to test it in the rain yet, but based on the build quality and features, I’m confident it’ll perform well. Overall, a very positive first impression and I’m glad I picked it up.

I ordered another jacket, this time in Olive. It is comfortable, lightweight, and generally very well made. The pockets are the right number and size, which suits me perfectly. It's great for spring and autumn. I've used these jackets before and have never been disappointed. I fully recommend it.

I ordered sizes XXL and XL. I weigh 97 kg, am 180 cm tall, and have a 115 cm chest. The XXL fits very well. I recommend choosing a larger size, as the cut is rather for slim people. I have a bit of a belly, but not too much. The XL was too tight and I wouldn't have been able to wear a sweatshirt underneath, so I advise not to rely solely on the size chart—it's best to try it on. Overall, I'm pleased with the jacket.

The Pentagon Artaxes jacket stands out with its solid construction and functionality, making it perfect for cold days. The material is durable, effectively protects against wind and light rain, and remains comfortable to wear. The cut is well-designed, providing full freedom of movement, which is a big plus for me on a daily basis. The pockets are spacious and practical, and the entire jacket is carefully finished with attention to detail. The jacket fits the body well and looks attractive. It's a good choice for those looking for a durable and comfortable military-style jacket.

The jacket is pleasant, relatively light, and at the same time provides quite good warmth, although it performs less well at temperatures close to zero. Nevertheless, it is still great for running with an ASG carbine in the woods.

I have had this jacket for over 5 years and the only thing that broke was the Velcro on the sleeve cuffs. I fixed them with fishing line and still use it. I have worn it in really tough conditions and it performs excellently. I highly recommend it.
