Who is the Helikon Patriot Mk2 suitable for?

The jacket is designed for intensive outdoor work with rapid temperature changes. Ventilation openings under the armpits and moisture wicking through Grid Fleece make it practical for long hikes or physical work in cool weather, when overheating and overcooling alternate. A large number of pockets - including sleeve pockets with Velcro panels - is aimed at those who need quick access to small gear, tools, or documents without removing their outer layer. The model is suitable both as a standalone layer and as a mid-insulation layer under a shell jacket.
