This jacket is fantastic. I bought it for my boyfriend, but in the end I kept it for myself. The XXL size is a bit too big for my height of 186 cm, but I like looser fits. It is really warm, and the inner fleece provides extra thermal comfort. There are enough pockets that you can easily do without a handbag. The workmanship and stitching are of the highest quality. Right after buying it, I tested it in the rain and the water ran off it really well. In my opinion, it is definitely worth buying.

wz.93 PL Woodland camouflage
The wz.93 "Pantera" camouflage pattern is currently used by the Polish Armed Forces. It was the first camouflage pattern designed and introduced for widespread use in the Third Republic of Poland. The 1993 pattern combines mimetic and deforming properties through the use of irregular spots of various sizes. The combination of green, brown, and black colors makes the Pantera the answer to the question: what camouflage is the right choice for Polish forests? Uniforms in this camouflage are also required for students of the Uniformed Services Class.

The three-layer nylon membrane, which provides high breathability and water resistance, allows moisture formed on the skin to evaporate during exertion, while protecting against soaking during harsh weather conditions.
DWR (Durable Water Repellency) is a durable waterproofing treatment that increases the surface tension of water and creates a hydrophobic coating on materials. It protects the material from rapid soaking, improves drying, provides stain resistance and increases breathability.
YKK zippers are high-quality zippers commonly used in clothing and accessories, manufactured by the Japanese YKK Corporation - one of the world's largest zipper manufacturers.
Grid-Tech is a technology used in the production of materials used in outdoor clothing. It improves the breathability, lightness and flexibility of garments, while increasing their strength and resistance to mechanical damage. It is often used in thermal insulation layers, providing thermal comfort and effective moisture wicking during physical activity.

Size: XL
The jacket is comfortable to wear, warm and comfortable, and resistant to rain and wind. The hood rolled up in the collar does not get in the way, so the collar is comfortable. I have size XL, and the size is accurate. I am very satisfied with the jacket.

Size: 3XL
The build quality is genuinely very good, and the Polish wz.93 Pantera camouflage looks excellent and faithfully reflects the original. The softshell provides great protection against strong wind and light rain, while the soft Grid-Tech fleece lining offers comfortable warmth on cooler days. Also worth praising are the hood hidden in the collar and the well-designed pockets on the shoulders and chest, which are easy to access. As for the drawbacks, the breathability could be a bit better. During more intense walking and in higher temperatures, it can feel too warm, even after opening the underarm vents. It is also worth noting the fairly fitted sizing — if you plan to wear a thicker sweater or fleece under the jacket, it is better to consider a larger size. In summary: this is a durable, functional, and comfortable jacket for spring and autumn. It definitely deserves its price!

The jacket material is elastic (2-way stretch) and does not restrict movement at all, which is extremely important during active use. The outer layer is treated with a dirt- and water-repellent DWR Teflon Grade 4 coating. During light rain or wet snow, water simply beads off without soaking through to the inside. The StormTex® membrane (8000 mm waterproofness, 5000 g/m² breathability) provides excellent protection against strong wind. Another advantage is the interior. The waffle-structured Grid-Tech® lining retains body heat very well in its “cells,” while at the same time preventing overheating when you are moving actively. If it gets too hot, large underarm ventilation openings with zippers and protective mesh are provided.

Size: XL
The jacket is warm and feels comfortable against the skin. It does not restrict freedom of movement. The only downside is that the Velcro area on the sleeves is a bit small for attaching patches (flag). The hood can be rolled up and secured with Velcro, which makes the collar comfortable and not bothersome. The sizing is accurate; XL is truly XL. All in all, a good comfortable jacket.

I am 6 ft 2' (187/188 cm) tall and a slim 84 Kg in weight, I bought this jacket in a large. So far I have only worn a T shirt underneath it, but there is enough/plenty of room to layer up in colder weather. This jacket is generous with sleeve length which with my long arms I require. The jacket is everything I was looking for, its well designed, good quality and at a very reasonable price. The inside zip pockets are large enough to hold my wallet in one and my iphone 11 in the the other. The sleeve pockets are also big enough to hold my phone if I wished, but I just use them to hold my car and house keys. I haven't used the large rear pocket yet, but the breast pockets are large enough for gloves and hat. I cant comment on its water proofing yet, but I didn't buy it for that and if required it is light enough to throw a water proof jacket over it. I think this will make a great travel jacket, where all my documents and every day carries can be stored securely. Hope this helps

The jacket features high-quality craftsmanship. It provides good thermal insulation and the ventilation system works flawlessly. Unfortunately, the external rubberized Velcro straps on the sleeves are coming off and need repair. Overall, the jacket is worth its price, especially during promotions.

Solid workmanship, very good thermal insulation, and comfort both for everyday use and outdoor trips. The jacket provides excellent protection against wind and rain, and works well in slightly below freezing temperatures as well as warmer spring days. Numerous spacious and functional pockets, underarm ventilation openings, and a hood that can be stowed in the collar are all practical features.

Very good jacket! The Artaxes jacket by Pentagon is well made and feels sturdy. I highly recommend this jacket without hesitation. Pentagon always at the top!

Really pleased with the Pentagon Artaxes Jacket so far. The quality feels excellent, with solid stitching and durable materials, and the fit is comfortable without being bulky. It’s lightweight but still feels tough enough for outdoor use, and the design looks great too. I haven’t had the chance to test it in the rain yet, but based on the build quality and features, I’m confident it’ll perform well. Overall, a very positive first impression and I’m glad I picked it up.

I ordered another jacket, this time in Olive shade. It is comfortable, lightweight, and overall very well made. The pockets have the right amount and size, which suits me perfectly. It works great during spring and fall. I have used these jackets before and have never been disappointed. I highly recommend it with full confidence.

I ordered sizes XXL and XL. I weigh 97 kg, I'm 180 cm tall, and my chest is 115 cm. XXL fits very well. I recommend choosing a larger size because the fit is rather for slim people. I have a bit of a belly, but not too much. XL was too tight and you wouldn't be able to wear a sweatshirt underneath, so I suggest not relying solely on the size chart—it's best to try it on. Overall, I am satisfied with the jacket.

The Pentagon Artaxes jacket stands out for its solid craftsmanship and functionality, making it perfect for cold days. The material is durable, effectively protects against wind and light rain, while still remaining comfortable to wear. The cut is well designed, providing full freedom of movement, which is a big plus for me in daily use. The pockets are roomy and practical, and the entire jacket is carefully detailed. The jacket fits the body well and looks aesthetically pleasing. It's a good choice for those looking for a durable and comfortable military-style jacket.

The jacket is pleasant, relatively light, and provides quite good warmth, although it performs less well at temperatures close to zero. However, it is still great for running with an ASG carbine in the forest.

I have had this jacket for over 5 years and the only thing that broke were the Velcro fasteners on the cuffs. I fixed them with fishing line and I still use the jacket. I've worn it in really tough conditions and it performs excellently. Highly recommended.
