The old-school style of the sweatshirt in a modern edition – a combination of tradition and innovation. There are pockets both on the chest and on the sleeves, and they can be closed with either Velcro or a button according to your preference. No lower pockets. I recommend it!

The uniform sweatshirt is crafted from PolyCotton Stretch Rip-Stop material (composed of 50% polyester, 48% cotton, and 2% elastane), known for its excellent resistance to abrasion and tearing. It is also lighter and dries quicker compared to a 100% cotton fabric. The Raid model is designed with a raglan construction, featuring sleeves sewn directly into the collar, eliminating shoulder seams.
This sweatshirt is secured with patch-covered buttons, offering practicality through 8 ergonomic pockets:
- two buttoned pockets on the chest,
- one pocket on each shoulder, fastened with either Velcro or a button,
- two flat open pockets located on the shoulder pockets,
- inside the sweatshirt are two mesh pockets, one with a zipper and one open.
Each pocket includes handles in the form of loops, allowing you to secure your equipment and avoid losing it during activities. The elbows feature reinforcements with a double layer of material that also serves as pockets for protective foam pads. Velcro allows for adjustable cuff widths.
Velcro strips are sewn above the chest pockets and on the shoulder flaps, enabling attachment of any emblems, such as national flags, unit insignias, or Morale Patches, adding a personal touch to the sweatshirt.

The sweatshirt is great – especially this color makes it look very elegant. The pockets are very spacious, and especially the internal ones are uniquely designed – the right one can hold a map, while the left one, which closes with a zipper, goes all the way to the armpit but is a bit too short for a map. In my opinion, it's another successful product from Helikon.

This sweatshirt is really great! It's comfortable, fits well, and stands out with its unique, historical camouflage. Makes you want to roll up your sleeves and buy some shorts, too. Rhodesians never die! ;)

The sweatshirt is very well made. Typical Helikon quality, but because of the color it heats up quickly and you can really see the dust on it.

The Helikon RAID sweatshirt is a solid and functional product. It has an excellent cut and many practical, well-placed pockets—from classic slanted chest pockets to multi-compartment ones on the sleeves and internal zippered pockets. Another plus is the durable rip-stop material in the Rhodesian Brushstroke camouflage, which works great in Polish forests. It is definitely worth recommending.

The Tiger Stripe patterned sweatshirt is fantastic. Below, I am posting a link to an example set with SFU Next 2 pants and a hat: https://youtu.be/nVrbq3TXdB8?si=vg7ZP-Qf3bidW6Lw

The sweatshirt is well-made, the size matches the chart, and the cut is also good—it fits well. The material is quite thick and warm, so I wouldn't recommend it for hot days. It looks nice, with a classic woodland pattern.

The sweatshirt is well made and durable. The large selection of colors deserves recognition. It has many pockets where you can store all the necessary items. I encourage you to try it out.
