Unfortunately, the purchase was unsuccessful – the shirt feels very plastic, is unpleasant to the touch, and very flammable. I like the Helikon brand, but this shirt, as well as their jeans, are a disappointment in my opinion.

The shirt is extremely comfortable and does not restrict movement. The workmanship is top-notch, which is already a standard with Helikon. The color looks even better in person than in the photo. The included glasses cleaning cloth is useful. I recommend it.

I have almost all the color versions. The shirt is very comfortable, the colors remain vivid, just like in other Pilgrim or Defender plaid models. The colors of the shirt look better in person than on the website. I wear size L at 174 cm and 83 kg. It's great that the material doesn’t crease. The glasses cleaning cloth has become a standard for me—I won’t choose other models without it.

The shirt is quite well made, the material is thick and durable. However, it is completely unsuitable for summer – it is heavy, and I can’t imagine doing sports in it. The material does not breathe well. I don’t understand the enthusiasm in other reviews. Besides, it wrinkles and folds easily.
-
Very good product. The quality is noticeable from the very first use. It works great in various situations. If you care about high standards, you’ve come to the right place. The service at Militaria is also always top-notch. I highly recommend it.

This is already the second shirt like this – I bought the first one for my wife on sale and couldn't resist out of envy. Very pleasant to the touch, high-quality workmanship, practical inner pockets, quality just like Helikon.

I already have a few of these shirts in different shades. They are well-made, the material is durable, doesn't wrinkle, and doesn't absorb odors. I've noticed that the new versions have a slightly different sizing, because the shirt from two years ago in the same size is a bit bigger. Some details have also changed, e.g., the cloth for wiping glasses. The fabric in the new batches no longer makes unpleasant noises during wear, though you could get used to that anyway. To sum up—currently, no complaints!

I already have several of these shirts in different shades. The workmanship is very good, the fabric is durable, doesn't wrinkle, and doesn't absorb odors. The new series seems to have a slightly different sizing – the model I bought 2 years ago was a bit bigger, although it's the same size. I also noticed minor differences, like a different material for cleaning glasses. The shirt material no longer makes characteristic sounds when rubbed (which you can get used to quickly anyway). Overall – currently I don't see any flaws in this shirt ;)

I already have a few of these shirts in different shades. They are well made, the material is durable, it doesn’t wrinkle or absorb odors. It seems to me that in the newer models the sizes are a bit different, because one from about two years ago is a little bigger in the same size. I also noticed some minor differences, like a different material for cleaning glasses. The new fabric no longer makes an unpleasant rustling sound when rubbing (although you could get used to that quickly). All in all, the current model of the shirt has no flaws ;)
-
The perfect shirt both for the outdoors and for mountain hikes. It has classic colors and pattern, plus a loose and comfortable cut. Very good shirt – I only regret that I didn’t decide to buy it sooner.
-
A shirt worth recommending. Despite its simple design, it is fully functional. The material seems to be very resistant to damage. Dries quickly, does not wrinkle. Pockets are placed in standard positions. Solid workmanship.
-
It's really a comfortable shirt, looks good, is warm and pleasant to the touch. The glasses cleaning cloth is also very practical. The only downside is the price – I still highly recommend it!
-
The shirt is nice, the material pleasant to the touch. Not tested in the field yet. The only downside – made in Vietnam, I'd rather support Polish manufacturers. Size S fits me at 102 cm chest and 172 cm height.
-
The shirt is well made, but unfortunately not breathable. The color in the picture looks different than in reality, it’s more faded in person. Shipping, as always, was very fast.
-
Very comfortable shirt made of pleasant to the touch material. Practical inner pocket, color is a matter of taste. Fits the figure well, but I suggest taking one size larger than usual.
