The sweatshirt was used for several months. The right size makes it comfortable, made of slightly elastic material where freedom of movement is needed, and the sleeves are made of thicker, stiffer fabric with well-designed Velcro at the wrists. I must admit that once again a Helikon brand product did not disappoint me.

A great product, I've had it for several months and used it a lot already. The material has held up to every use so far, and I am completely convinced by it.
-
This sweater works perfectly both during KV training, outdoor activities, and everyday wear. The material at the front and back feels pleasant on the skin, and the durable sleeves handle intensive use well. The color remains vibrant even after some time, and the quality of workmanship is very high. The soft lining at the collar is another advantage. This is a solid and highly recommended product.
-
The sweatshirt is extremely comfortable, well-fitted, which makes it easy to draw a weapon, and the wide and sturdy sleeves with cuffs make it easier to secure the cuffs while shooting.
-
I am very satisfied with the purchase. The material of the sleeves is extremely durable, and the TopCool lining provides excellent ventilation — wearing it is exceptionally comfortable. The pockets placed on the shoulders are functional, and the velcro panels allow for quick attachment of patches. I also appreciate the zippered collar and the adjustable cuffs. The PL Woodland camouflage works great in the field. This is truly a solid sweatshirt!
-
There are two types of material. Perfect under a vest. I recommend choosing the size according to your own measurements and not following the model's size. The fit is rather snug. If you prefer looser clothing, it's better to take a larger size. The material breathes well.
-
Great sweatshirt. Wonderfully made. A combination of two materials. Perfect both as standard and under vests. Typical size. If someone wants a looser fit, it's better to take a larger one because the model is rather fitted to the body. Sleeves are wider. Breathable.
-
A high-quality product with a military style. Ideal for people with broader shoulders. The material is elastic and fits the figure perfectly. The garment is practical, breathable, and made from quick-drying fabric. There are many interesting colors to choose from.
-
Very good quality product, both the material and the stitching are flawless. Very flexible sweatshirt, fits the figure well. Slight minus – after several washes at the recommended temperature, the color faded a bit.
-
As always, Helikon presents great quality. The combat fits the figure perfectly. The material is breathable, lightweight, and dries quickly, which I confirmed on the training ground. For 183 cm and 95 kg, size L is perfect.
-
I'm very satisfied with this hoodie. It works perfectly for both indoor and outdoor training. After washing, it still looks great and retains its shape.
-
I bought this sweatshirt and I am fully satisfied – it fits perfectly. However, I recommend choosing a size larger than usual; I usually wear M, but chose L and it's good. I'm already taking it out into the field for tests and I know these won't be my last purchases from this brand. Additionally, I placed the order on Sunday and by Monday at 1 PM the parcel was already with me – full professionalism from Militaria.
-
One of the best combat shirts available on the market. Very comfortable in dynamic situations, practical pockets, high quality finish, dries quickly.
-
The Helikon MCDU Pantera PL Woodland shirt is top-notch! Durable, comfortable, excellently camouflages. NyCo Rip-Stop material ensures longevity. Great for expeditions and special missions. Highly recommended!
-
Very nice shirt, although it should be noted that the sizing is intended more for slim and tall people. At my height of 175 cm and weight of 80 kg, size M was quite long, and the sleeves were too long, and the Velcro on the cuffs is uncomfortable. After some tailoring – shortening and narrowing the sleeves and sewing in a zipper – the shirt is now perfect.
