Helikon-Tex Defender Mk2 Pilgrim Shirt - Subdued Blue
Blue shirt made from a durable nylon and polyester blend and elastic, quick-drying Sorona fibers. Perfect for everyday wear as well as outdoor activities. The loose fit is compatible with body movement, as well as with low-profile ballistic vests or IWB (Inside the Waistband) holsters.
High-quality material with UV protection, MBDU design
The material used in this shirt, with a 146 g/m2 grammage, dries quickly and has antibacterial properties and the ability to wick moisture away, which helps maintain comfort and a dry feeling during wear. The addition of DuPont Sorona prevents unpleasant odors, especially on hot days. The loose fit provides full freedom of movement. The UV protection factor (UPF) in the Defender Mk2 shirt is >50, meaning 98% protection effectiveness.
4 practical pockets
The shirt includes four pockets located near the chest area:
- Two main ones, closed with a velcro flap, accessible from the top
- Two Napoleon ones, located behind the main ones, closed with a durable, lightweight YKK zipper
Button closure, adjustable cuffs
The shirt is closed using Canadian buttons, and adjustable cuffs make it easy to fit to the figure. The button placket includes a loop, ideal for hanging glasses. The front part under the collar has a slight stiffening, preventing creases.
