A comfortable tactical shirt made of durable and abrasion-resistant material. It is ideal for any activity, both in the field and in the city.
The Defender Mk2 shirt is designed primarily for uniformed service officers, but also for active people who appreciate high quality and practical use. Its rather loose cut perfectly harmonizes with the anatomy of movement, low-profile ballistic vest or IWB (Inside the Waistband) holster.
With the addition of DuPont Sorona material, the shirt's fabric prevents unpleasant odors especially when hiking in hot weather.
A loop was sewn on the button bar, where you can conveniently hang your glasses. A small stiffening in the front part under the collar prevents it from rolling.
The shirt is equipped with four pockets arranged at chest level:
- two main ones, with flaps closed with Velcro, with access from the top,
- two Napoleonic ones located behind the main pockets, closed with a lightweight and durable zipper.
The Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) for the Defender Mk2 shirt is >50 and protects 98% against UV radiation.

The material of this shirt is significantly different from the Gentleman and Tropical series. The flannel is soft and retains heat well. Additionally, it doesn’t need to be ironed. Size S fits a person who is 180 cm tall and weighs 80 kg.
-
The shirt is worth recommending. Although it has a simple design, it is very practical. The material seems durable and resistant to damage. It dries quickly and doesn't need ironing. The pockets are typically placed. The whole thing is carefully sewn.
-
A very well-made shirt in an aesthetic, warm checkered pattern. The fabric is not thick, which makes the shirt light and comfortable; it moves well with you. Despite the addition of synthetic fibers, it doesn't overheat the body and doesn't retain sweat odor even with exertion. It dries quickly after washing. It has a functional cut and four pockets, including two with discreet zippers – convenient for documents and other small items.
-
The shirt is very pleasant to the touch, warm and practical thanks to handy pockets. The color in reality is nicer than in the photo, which was a pleasant surprise. Size S fits perfectly on a person who is 167 cm tall and weighs 73 kg.
-
186 cm / 70 kg. Size M in this model was a bit too large, S fits better. I also ordered another model, MBDU, and there size M is fine—the cut is more fitted. The shirts make a solid impression and feel nice to the touch.

A brilliant shirt, or rather a sweatshirt – my third in the Def.mk2 cut, this time the warmest and thickest. Those familiar with this style know there’s not much more to add. The material is moderately stiff, slightly rustling, but pleasant to the touch. It’s hard for it to absorb unpleasant odors, so you can reduce the frequency of washing. It performed excellently during changing weather in the Karkonosze mountains – even sweating, I didn't feel the need to take it off. The shirt attracts attention with its beautiful, rusty checkered pattern, both in the forest and around rocks. Even my wife is impressed. Standard size XL for 184 cm and 100 kg worked perfectly. It's a great choice, especially bought at a summer sale.

I bought the Helikon Defender Mk2 Pilgrim - Ginger Plaid shirt in your store a month ago. It has worked great so far. The color remains vibrant even in the sun and doesn’t pill after washing. The material is very resilient—highly recommend!
-
This is the second shirt of this model that I've bought – this time in a smaller size as a gift. The recipient is also very satisfied. It's a great shirt.
-
The shirt is perfectly designed, fits your movements well and doesn't restrict freedom at all. As expected from Helikon, the quality is top-notch, and the functional pockets and eyewear loop make it even more attractive. The shirt hardly wrinkles, so it's also suitable for more formal occasions. Highly recommended!
-
The shirt deserves five stars. Made from durable, comfortable-to-wear material. The quality of workmanship is very good, and the practical pocket arrangement makes it a great choice for everyday use. I recommend it!
-
Another outstanding Helikon shirt, on par with the GreyMan series. Great cut and material, doesn’t require ironing. The pockets are well designed. The price is high, but it comes with very good quality.
-
This is already my second shirt from this series. Very interesting model and in my opinion, the material is fine. For my build (188 cm / 105 kg), size XXL is ideal. The style and durability of the shirt are at a high level. I recommend it!
-
The quality of craftsmanship and material is very high. The shirt has a good cut and several functional pockets. The colors and pattern look much better in person than in the photos. Size XL is perfect for 182 cm and 100 kg. I definitely recommend it!
-
The shirt looks even better in person than in the pictures. It has a practical cut and the material is very pleasant to the touch, fairly thick—great for cooler days. Highly recommend it.
