Great cut and the old-fashioned style of the uniform sweatshirt. Plus, it doesn't cost much. An excellent option for going to the shooting range. I hope for more camouflage patterns. I rate it 5/5.
The uniform sweatshirt is crafted from PolyCotton Stretch Rip-Stop material (composed of 50% polyester, 48% cotton, and 2% elastane), known for its excellent resistance to abrasion and tearing. It is also lighter and dries quicker compared to a 100% cotton fabric. The Raid model is designed with a raglan construction, featuring sleeves sewn directly into the collar, eliminating shoulder seams.
This sweatshirt is secured with patch-covered buttons, offering practicality through 8 ergonomic pockets:
- two buttoned pockets on the chest,
- one pocket on each shoulder, fastened with either Velcro or a button,
- two flat open pockets located on the shoulder pockets,
- inside the sweatshirt are two mesh pockets, one with a zipper and one open.
Each pocket includes handles in the form of loops, allowing you to secure your equipment and avoid losing it during activities. The elbows feature reinforcements with a double layer of material that also serves as pockets for protective foam pads. Velcro allows for adjustable cuff widths.
Velcro strips are sewn above the chest pockets and on the shoulder flaps, enabling attachment of any emblems, such as national flags, unit insignias, or Morale Patches, adding a personal touch to the sweatshirt.

Great shirt in the typically high quality of the Helikon brand. If you prefer it to fit a bit more snugly, you should order one size smaller. I usually wear everything from the brand in size L, with a height of 1.90 m and a weight of 85 kilos. However, I had to order this shirt in size M and it fits very well.
