Review for model:

Size: XL

The XL size turned out to be clearly too big, even though I usually wear exactly XL in Helikon. I also have the impression that their sizing has changed a bit lately. Other than that, it’s a solid tactical hoodie with good zippers. In the end, I decided it’s not quite my style, because I’m not really into hoodies, but I kept this one anyway. Overall, it’s fine.

After buying this hoodie, I came to the conclusion that its value for money largely depends on the price. If you can get it on sale for around 150 PLN, then in my opinion it’s a good deal. However, at the regular price of over 250 PLN, I’d think twice. The material is quite thin, and I feel that for that amount of money, you can find something much more interesting.

Size: XL

Overall, I was personally very pleased with the purchased sweater. The size is generally fine, though if I were buying a second one like this, I would try one size smaller, but that is just my personal view. If you wear something thicker and warmer underneath, it seems fine, but if you wear the sweater over just one thin layer (a sweatshirt or a T-shirt), I would still choose a smaller size. That is why I would like to get another one like this. Height 190, width 63.

Great sweatshirt, size XL fits perfectly for someone who is 180 cm tall and weighs 100 kg. It fits well in the shoulders and across the back. It is a little too long, but otherwise it would be hard for me to get a good fit in the upper part. The number of pockets is a big advantage, and the front ones are deep enough to easily hold a larger phone.

Size: L

An excellent hoodie, made from very pleasant material with fine, subtle speckles. It has plenty of pockets: one at the front around the stomach area, with an additional zippered pocket inside it, as well as a pocket on the sleeve and an inner pocket. The quality of workmanship is very high. I recommend it.

As usual, Helikon maintains a high standard. The hoodie is very nice, warm, and comfortable, and the inner pockets can be closed. The only minor downside is the sizing - it seems to run slightly small (M fits almost like L).

This is one of the best sweatshirts I’ve had. I bought it on sale for only 150 PLN. It works perfectly for trips outdoors, at work, and for everyday wear.

Really pleased with this hoodie. Great quality, comfortable to wear and a really nice fit without being overly baggy. The black\/melange grey looks smart enough for everyday use while still being practical, and the material feels well made. Definitely one I'd recommend.

Size: XL

This hoodie completes my Helikon collection of kangaroo hoodies — I already have the Lite, Covert, and Rogue models. The sizing is standard, just like the others, and XL fits perfectly at 185 cm tall and 100 kg. I bought this model last because reviews about the shiny fabric had put me off, but here I was pleasantly surprised — the light gray version has only a very slight sheen. The hoodie looks stylish and seems warm, but only time will tell whether the material will prove durable, resistant to snags like the Rogue, and free from pilling like the Covert. I will definitely try to remove the hook-and-loop patches from the sleeves and hood, because on a typically urban hoodie they are completely unnecessary. Unfortunately, Helikon often adds hook-and-loop where it is not needed and leaves it out where it really would be useful, such as on the Woodsman or Pilgrim hoodies and jackets — but that is just a characteristic of this brand. Most importantly, though, it is a great Polish company ;)

The sweatshirt is fine, it has large pockets and well-designed smaller pockets. I already have two colors of this model and I think the price is attractive. I own two sweatshirts that differ in color and size.

Review for model:

The sweatshirt is great, the material is pleasant to the touch – different from regular cotton, it feels lighter and less warm. It has an everyday look, although you can see a subtle military accent. Very cool item!

The sweatshirt is very comfortable and carefully made. The material is pleasant to the touch, retains heat well, and works both for everyday wear and outdoor activities. The cut allows for freedom of movement, and the pockets are functional and spacious. The sturdy zippers and solid finishing also deserve mention. The black color is classic and easy to match with other clothes. Overall, the sweatshirt looks great and is very comfortable to wear.

The sweatshirt has an interesting, slightly military style – it's discreet, but stands out with its character. The material has an interesting texture, and the workmanship and quality are very good. The promotional price is attractive.

I think this sweatshirt is a great choice - it's very comfortable. The number of pockets is excellent, but that's standard for Helikon. I usually wear size M and this size fits me well, although I would prefer it to be about 5 cm shorter (I'm 175 cm tall), but I've already gotten used to it and it’s not a problem. The sweatshirt is warmer than the Alpha Tactical, but it also has a different use. I'm very satisfied with this purchase and I'm considering getting another one :-). I've seen opinions about the supposedly "shiny" material - I had some concerns, but in my opinion the shine is minimal and looks attractive. I can honestly recommend it.

Very nice sweatshirt, perfect for spring and autumn days, you can wear it over a T-shirt because it’s warm enough and gives light rain protection. The sizes are a bit confusing, it's worth comparing with your own clothes.
