The material looks very good, the color is much darker in reality than in the pictures. I am satisfied with the purchase and recommend it to everyone.
Softshell jacket with three-layer breathable AB-TEX Tri-Max membrane. The outer fabric has a Teflon DWR coating that repels water and prevents permanent dirt build-up. The inside is lined with soft fleece. The jacket protects against wind and rain, while providing very good thermal properties.
The softshell has 8 pockets:
- two chest pockets,
- two on the sleeves at shoulder height,
- one on the left sleeve above the wrist,
- two inside pockets,
- one so-called “poacher's pocket” - at the back below the cross.
All pockets have zippers. The right breast pocket has a hole for cabling, while the left pocket is divided into two smaller compartments. On the left shoulder, there is a panel with Velcro for attaching any kind of patch.
The high collar protects the neck and chin from rain and wind. The jacket has a hood with a visor, which can be tucked into the collar if necessary. Velcro-adjustable cuffs and ribbing at the bottom of the jacket provide additional protection against the cold. Air circulation is supported by vents under the arms lined with mesh and closed with a zipper.
Made in Arid MC Camo camouflage patterned after the universal MultiCam camouflage, which works especially well among dry vegetation, in steppes and semi-desert areas.

The jacket worked well until it rained. During heavy rainfall, it started to leak in the upper part after about 20 minutes.
-
Super comfortable jacket, works great in windy and rainy weather. Numerous, practical pockets are a huge advantage. In my opinion, the sizing runs a little small—I usually wear XL, but after reading reviews I ordered XXL and it was spot on. I recommend this model.
-
Very sturdy seams, pockets placed in key locations—the pass-through pocket at the back of the jacket is especially practical. An additional advantage is the ventilation under the arms—a great solution!
-
The jacket is good, although I see a few small flaws, two of which particularly bother me. First, the hidden hood creates an uncomfortable bulge on the neck, which is a bit annoying. Second, some of the zippers are hard to operate without using both hands. Despite these small issues, I think it’s worth its price and I can recommend it.
-
The jacket is really comfortable and has many practical pockets, which is very useful. Additionally, it has a hidden hood in the collar, which I consider a plus. I'll see how it performs with everyday use.

The jacket arrived in Odessa within 8 days. It looks well-made. It has a lot of pockets. I plan to test it on rainy days. The size matches the chart. Made in China.
-
The Highlander Forces Tactical Softshell jacket is very practical for use in the field. The shipment from Military was delivered quickly and without problems. I recommend this product.
-
The jacket is well made and comfortable to wear, offering plenty of easily accessible pockets. The foldable hood is a big plus for me. The size runs a bit small, so if you plan to wear a thicker sweatshirt underneath, it's better to choose a larger size. I fully recommend it.
-
I don’t know if anyone has already bought this softshell, but I am very satisfied. You could criticize the lack of a velcro panel on the right sleeve and the lack of small pockets in the right large pocket, which are present in the left one, but these are minor drawbacks. Overall, the jacket is great, and the sizing matches the chart. I definitely recommend the purchase.
-
Very good quality, great fit, and lots of pockets. This is my first purchase from this brand. I use it every day and it works well. The only minor downside is velcro on only one sleeve – I prefer symmetry, but it’s a small thing. I recommend this jacket.
-
It looks good, although the sizing runs a bit large—if you usually wear size S, it's better to choose M. It strongly resembles a Helikon jacket. It still awaits testing in the field, but it will probably serve its purpose.
-
The jacket is carefully made, looks good, and is comfortable to wear. It has a large number of pockets and a hood that can be hidden, provides warmth, and is waterproof, which makes it a great choice for outdoor trips on cold days. The only small drawback is the placement of the cuff fastener—in my piece, it sticks out beyond the edge and sometimes scratches my hands, although this might only be a defect in my jacket. Other than that, I have no complaints.
