Great sweatshirt with a hybrid design – breathable topcool material on the torso and durable, stiffer material on the sleeves, resistant to tearing. Thoughtful design – you don't have to worry about accidentally catching on branches because the sleeves are solid. Velcro and sleeve pockets are a big plus. The only minor drawback is the high collar, which might be a bit annoying for people with a beard when turning your head, but when buying this type of sweatshirt, you have to keep that in mind. Ideal for transitional seasons – spring and autumn. Rather too warm for summer. Highly recommended!

Light and durable Combat Shirt, perfectly complementing the Modern Battle Dress Uniform (MBDU) field uniform. The sleeves are made from a blend of cotton, polyester, and elastane. This material is characterized by high resistance to abrasions and tears. The central part of the shirt is made from elastic and breathable TopCool polyester fabric, ensuring proper fit and freedom of movement.
On each shoulder, there are pockets with YKK zippers. The pockets have velcro panels, allowing any emblems, like national flags, unit insignia, or so-called Morale Patches, to be attached, giving the shirt a personalized character.
Cuffs with velcro allow for adjustment and precise fitting of their size to the wrist width. Elbow reinforcements additionally protect against abrasions.
A high collar with a zipper allows for the regulation of air circulation under the clothing. The collar's finish is equipped with a chin guard.

Tiger Stripe Camouflage
Tiger Stripe is a family of camouflage patterns originating in Southeast Asia, the most popular variant of which is the pattern developed in the Republic of Vietnam. Its design is based on the French Lizard pattern, adapted for tropical conditions. Tiger Stripe consists of irregular, brushstroke-like stripes in shades of green and brown and wider, grayish lines, placed on an olive or khaki background. Such an arrangement works particularly well in dense jungles and tropical forests, where it effectively camouflages the silhouette among low and medium vegetation. The camouflage makes it difficult to detect at close range and allows one to blend into the dynamic, shaded vegetation background. The name "Tiger Stripe" alludes to the coat of tigers - the pattern imitates the natural striped color pattern, which works well in conditions that require effective contour breakdown in dense greenery.

This is my first shirt from Helikon and definitely won't be my last. The material it's made from is really high quality. The shirt is comfortable to wear. I chose size 2XL – at 198 cm tall and 110 kg, it fits perfectly.
-
Very comfortable and well-made tactical sweatshirt. It works well in various weather conditions during outdoor activities. Comfortable even when worn all day.
-
Like every combat shirt from Helikon, it's very comfortable and worth its price, although it's worth waiting for promotions. The camouflage looks great in person. The sizing matches the chart. I definitely recommend it.
-
Great combat shirt, one of the most breathable I've ever had. You can clearly feel the solid craftsmanship and quality materials. It is extremely comfortable and airy, works brilliantly under ballistic gear. I'm very satisfied with it.

Great combat shirt, one of the most breathable I've had so far. You can see solid craftsmanship and the use of good materials. It is very comfortable and allows air to pass through well, works perfectly under ballistic gear. I am very satisfied with the purchase.

The workmanship is top level, and the camouflage is great for outdoor activities, for example during airsoft :) I recommend trying it on before purchasing to choose the right size.
-
I am 190 cm tall, weigh 95 kg, and I chose size XL. The shirt fits perfectly, it doesn't feel tight or restrict movement. The material on the sleeves is harder and thicker, while on the torso and back it's very soft and breathable – everything as described. I chose this camo version to match my already owned UTP and MCDU pants.
-
The price is high, but it matches the good quality, though it could be even better. I've been using this product for a few months and overall I'm satisfied, though there was one issue. On the sides of the shirt, the fabric started to pill a lot, probably due to friction with the vest – so I recommend using a chest rig (I now use a training mini rig and the problem disappeared). Apart from this one flaw, everything else is great, solidly made, and well thought out, so despite this small minus, I recommend this product.

Product of very good quality. Highly recommended! Delivery as usual, very fast.
