This is already my second jacket of this model, this time I chose the reversible version, which now hangs next to my older, one-sided one. I highly recommend it.
A double-sided hooded jacket designed for maximum thermal comfort on cold days, featuring a lightweight build. The outer layer consists of tough, quick-drying WindPack nylon, further enhanced with DWR impregnation. Inside is filled with 67 g/m2 Climashield Apex synthetic insulation, ensuring reliable warmth even when wet, with an excellent weight-to-heat efficiency ratio.
Secured with a one-way YKK zipper, the jacket includes a chin guard. Elastic hemming at the bottom, cuffs, and hood edge effectively prevents wind from entering. The hood features a drawstring with stoppers and a soft peak. For ventilation, underarm inserts made from stretchy and breathable VersaStretch fabric are incorporated.
The Wolfhound Hoodie includes two side pockets, a chest pocket, and three inside pockets, all secured with YKK zippers. Its reversible design offers adaptability to your environment or the season. A velcro panel on the shoulder allows for attaching any patch or emblem.
This jacket can be easily compressed, fitting into a small pouch, making it ideal for longer trips as well as daily use.

I bought it on sale – I like its reversibility, perfect for winter, and it's great in autumn too. In my opinion, the jacket is really lightweight, compresses well, and is comfortable to use. I recommend it, but it's best to buy it on promotion :D

The Helikon jacket is a very versatile choice – it works both as an insulating layer and for additional warmth. The VersaStretch panel under the arms and the adjustable hood with a visor add to the comfort. Additionally, the jacket can be easily folded and carried thanks to its compression feature.

Helikon, as usual, nothing majorly surprising. The jacket could be a bit wider at the waist – there might be an issue with fastening it if someone wears equipment on their belt. The solution with double-sided printing is a GREAT idea and it would be nice to see more such models, e.g. for summer/fall and summer/winter seasons. Generally, the Wolfhound is a lightweight jacket mainly for autumn. In winter, it's suitable for intense physical activity or as an extra, warmer layer.

This is already the second jacket of this type in my wardrobe, although in a different camouflage. I find it perfect for the city. When I bought the first one, I was a bit worried that the material seemed too thin, but it turned out to be completely unnecessary – it was worn in winter and shows absolutely no signs of wear.
-
A friend who is very satisfied with this jacket recommended it to me, and I can fully confirm his opinion. It is exceptionally light and easy to pack. The insulation is designed so that with moderate activity you don’t get too hot.
-
This is another Wolfhound jacket in my collection, it’s perfect, and its insulation works in all conditions. The color was the deciding factor, although it's a pity that so few products are available in the Snowdrift version.
-
The jacket is insulated and very lightweight. A big plus is the ability to wear it on both sides. It protects against the wind and works perfectly – the soldier it was bought for even wears it in winter when the frost is not too harsh.
-
Great jacket, very comfortable for trips because it takes up little space. During a long winter walk, the temperature was perfect—not too cold, not too hot.
