Men's Helion Jacket

You can tell this jacket is quality and has had a lot of thought out into it. The only I issue I currently have is the fit. I’m 5’11”, 185 with athletic build. The fit is a bit tight across the chest and shoulders, armpit is a bit tight as well. These may work themselves out as I wear it. I think sizing up would have given me too much sleeve length and tail length. Coming from an atom LT, this is a bit more heavy and restrictive of motion as outlined above. However, this jacket is much warmer and still breathes with the side panels. I fully expect this jacket to take the LTs place in my rotation once worn in a bit more.

Great quality jacket. I’m 5’9” 180, 39” chest. I normally wear a small or medium in jackets depending on the brand. I went with small on this jacket as I plan to wear it under a plate carrier for SWAT activities. It is a pretty perfect fit. Some room in the torso with tighter arms. If was going to wear this as a regular day to day jacket or over a bunch of layers I would go with a medium next time. However the stretch panels on the side keep the fit nice and snug and it will be perfect for my needs.

Had the Helion for over a year then decided to trade for the Atom LT. I regretted that decision immediately. The Helion actually kept me warm wearing it standalone during the winter here in AK. Paired with a good base layer and outer shell (in my case, the Otte Patrol Parka), this thing really shines during the cold winter months. The jacket had more wind-proofing then I thought it would, and the insulation is consistent throughout. I cant say the same about the Atom LT. As soon as i walked outside with the Atom LT, i could feel breeze going straight though it. My arms immediately feel cold with the LT (which was not the case at all with the Helion). The only complaints i have about the Helion is the lack of bottom draw string on the full zip version, and I also wish there was more room when you full zip (near the neck/chin area). Other than that, i feel the Helion is perfect.

Outstanding product. Fit is perfect. Light yet plenty warm for layering. Gonna get another in another color

This is comfortable jacket.

Bought the Man's Helion Jacket. Great fit and used for a large temperature range while being comfortable.

Great quality. Lightweight. Very comfortable and warm. My new favorite jacket. Worth the wait and price.

This jacket is perfect. Maybe it’s just me but it’s almost like the jacket was tailored to fit my exact body shape. The jacket is super lightweight and amazing at regulating your body temps. Couldn’t be happier with my purchase. The only problem I encounter was that I ordered no Velcro on the sleeves and received them anyhow but it’s not a dealbreaker. I will definitely be a returning customer for defense mechs.

Thank you for crafting a beautifully fitting jacket. It's very comfortable in the Northern Desert.

Absolutely love this jacket. Perfect fit (I am 5'11" 180lbs. and chose medium) and extremely functional. I haven't fully ran it through it's paces, but I feel like I am at least a 10 percent better shooter/scout and 100 percent more comfortable and badass in this jacket. ;)
