This coat is a great choice. The materials, workmanship, and precision are on par with brands like Geox or similar. I bought it for tactical purposes, but it also works for everyday use. It's very warm, lightweight, and very well made. Highly recommend.
Winter jacket constructed from 100% Rip-Stop weave nylon, tailored for operational task use. It features Climashield Apex insulation with a weight of 100 g/m2 on the torso and sleeves, and 67 g/m2 on the hood, ensuring warmth even when wet, suitable for various weather scenarios.
Incorporating elastic adjustments at the bottom and cuffs of the jacket, the design also allows the hood to be stashed away, facilitating compatibility with helmets. Equipped with a two-way YKK zipper, thermal strip, and chin guard to block cold air.
The chest area houses pockets with D-rings and compartments for electronic gadgets. Additionally, the top section includes internal pockets for documents and personal items, alongside two lower inner pockets.
The design features three identification panels that can be either shown or hidden as needed. The Husky model offers easy compression and packability, maintaining all its functionalities.
Outfitted with a Quick Side Access system, providing straightforward and rapid access to weapons or other gear worn on the belt. The Husky is a tactical winter garment crafted for low-temperature conditions by police and other services.
Quick Side Access (QSA) is a mechanism ensuring swift and unhindered access to tactical gear attached to the belt. With the ergonomic design of the QSA, users can effortlessly reach weapons, stun guns, or other gear in one fluid movement, significantly improving reaction times in emergencies. The civilian profile and system layout make it ideal for operations in urban settings.

I agree – it’s worth ordering a smaller size. It was good that I consulted by phone with the seller beforehand. They recommended size M, even though I usually wear L, and that was the right choice. I agree with the opinions of other buyers. The jacket is incredibly light and very well designed. The collar fits well around the neck and it's very warm. The price is high, but in my opinion fully justified, and it also looks great :-)

The jacket is very warm and surprisingly light. I also appreciate the included cover for the jacket. After a year of use, my only complaint is the weapon accessibility system – it works a bit sluggishly and doesn’t always go smoothly on the first try, but you can get used to it over time. Despite this small flaw, I definitely recommend it because the jacket is really well thought out.

A really good jacket from a Polish manufacturer. Perfect for operational tasks, very warm and provides proper thermal comfort in winter. It's not the cheapest, but it's an investment for many years.

I've had this jacket for two years. It's comfortable, warm, and fairly resistant to moisture. Unfortunately, it doesn't wick sweat well, so it doesn't work for more intensive activity than a walk. The main zipper could be improved, as well as a looser, longer collar (like ski jackets). With the hood tucked in, it's hard to zip up comfortably. On the plus side—the number of pockets, enough for anyone. The cut is rather loose but comfortable.
-
After a month of use I haven't noticed any flaws. I'm 198 cm tall and the XXL size could be a bit longer in the back. The material is very high quality. At temperatures down to -10°C, wearing only a T-shirt underneath, I wasn't cold. I recommend it.
-
I bought it for hiking and for use during winter and early spring while on duty, and I hope it will keep me warm. I'll share my opinion later on how it performs in use. The color is a bit too light for me; I would prefer a darker shade of green, but I really like the jacket's cut.
-
The jacket is great – light, but at the same time keeps warmth very well. Big advantage: the pockets and quick access to your weapon. The size fits like a glove, and you can easily put a vest over it. A small minus for the lack of velcro panels on the sleeves.
-
During an eight-hour mountain trip around zero Celsius with rain or snow, wearing only a thermal shirt, I was warm the whole time as long as I kept moving. The pockets are big and spacious, and when packed into a compression bag, the jacket takes up very little space compared to its size. Unfortunately, the pocket waterproofing could be better—for example, a cotton balaclava in a side pocket got slightly wet. In the ID pocket, even though the zipper was closed, money stored inside was wet.
-
The jacket is very warm and has a lot of practical pockets—both on the outside and inside. I chose black because there was no coyote color left. Now I understand why there are so many black ones... I'm 175 cm tall, chest 114 cm, and S would have fitted me, I got M and it's a bit too big. The jacket fits well around the neck, so wind doesn't blow in. Overall recommend, but probably not in black.
-
It is lightweight, warm, and comfortable to wear.
-
The jacket is made very well. I used it at work, and recently bought one for myself—really recommend it, especially for people who deal with firearms!
-
This is a really great jacket. I bought it for driving, and since then I haven’t used any other. Both the pockets, the cut, and the comfort – I rate everything at the highest level.
-
This is an improved version of the Climashield 7 jacket. When I tried on the Husky, I noticed Helikon made another step forward compared to the 'seven.' For an extra 70 PLN, you get more pockets you can use in various ways, and the option of quick side unzipping to grab your weapon or accessories. Both models are extremely warm – for an average Polish winter, even a bit too much sometimes. Definitely worth buying!
-
The jacket is very good, but I chose the wrong size and had to return it. I will exchange it for a smaller one.
