Helikon-Tex Defender Mk2 Nylon Sorona Blend Shirt - Evening Pumpkin Plaid
Evening Pumpkin Plaid shirt made from a blend of durable nylon, polyester, and quick-drying, stretchable Sorona fibers. It is suitable for everyday wear as well as outdoor activities. The loose fit complements body movement, a low-profile protective vest, or an in-waistband (IWB) holster.
high-quality fabric with UV protection
The material used, with a grammage of 155 g/m2, known as Nylon Sorona Blend (54% nylon, 24% Sorona, 23% polyester), is quick-drying and effectively wicks moisture, ensuring a feeling of dryness and comfort while wearing. The addition of DuPont Sorona prevents unpleasant odors from forming, especially during hikes on hot days. The loose fit guarantees full freedom of movement.
4 functional pockets
The shirt is equipped with four pockets at chest level:
- two main ones with velcro closures, accessed from the top
- two napoleon pockets located behind the main pockets, closed with a light and durable YKK zipper
button closure, adjustable cuffs
The shirt features Canadian buttons for fastening, and adjustable cuffs allow for easy fit to the figure. A loop is sewn into the button placket for convenient glasses hanging. A small reinforcement in the front under the collar prevents it from curling.
