Description

The Helion is a lightweight insulated jacket that provides breathable warmth and moderate weather resistance. Designed to be worn in a stand-alone manner, or as a mid-layer with a wet weather protective shell. The face fabric is durable and wind-resistant, while a hard fleece panel at the underarms aids in breathability and helps prevent the user from overheating during strenuous activity.

Patrol Features: Selecting "Yes" to this option will add PTT loops and a badge attachment point to the front of the jacket.

Details:

  • 2oz/yd² CLIMASHIELD™ APEX insulation performs better than down in wet and humid conditions, dries quickly, packs small, and is easy to clean
  • Raglan style sleeves for increased comfort and range of motion
  • A drop tail keeps the low back covered during strenuous movements
  • Durable Lightweight nylon fabric has a DWR finish
  • Large, insulated, zippered hand pockets allow access when wearing a plate carrier and/or duty belt
  • Polartec hard-faced fleece sides allow for better ventilation when worn under Personal Protective Equipment, and stretch to enable the easier clearing of the cover garment when the jacket is zipped
  • Athletic fit for layering under shells and PPE
  • Locking YKK zipper prevents self-opening during movement
  • Polartec Power stretch cuffs
  • Optional Velcro Loop on sleeves

Wash and Care Instructions:

  • Hand wash cold, no bleach

    Men's Helion Jacket

    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. ;)

    Perfect fit and function.

    The only problem with the Helion jacket is that I now need it in two more colors. Are you looking into making a wind and water layer to go over it? Fingers crossed!

    Helicon Jacket

    Super lightweight but highly effective at keeping you warm. The gray is a bit lighter in color than manufacturers but matches the rest of their product line. Great stuff that is highly packable.

    Helion jacket

    Published by Kyle on Feb 25th 2022

    5'8". 150lbs. 38 chest. Size 30 pants. Ranger green, size small, w/hood. Seems to be of good quality, did not have any stray threads or manufacturing blemishes out of the box. Zippers are smooth and easy. Hood is comfortable, with a bit of extra room to fit a helmet under I'm guessing. Fit is snug, but as a slim guy, I like that. Still had plenty of room for layering though. Decided to wear both the helion jacket and helion pants for a recent winter coyote hunt/camp weekend here in Wisconsin. Temps were around 15°F with a wind chill making it "feel like" 4°F and a few inches of snow on the ground. The jacket and pants did well to keep me warm. Definitely helped block the wind very well. Kept the pants on during the camping part of the weekend, folded the jacket into its own hood and used it as a pillow. Slept under a tarp shelter and in a winter sleep system (goretex bivy, sleeping pad, sleeping bag) *I did wear a few layers under the jacket and pants. Wool top and bottom base layer, jeans and flannel midlayer, then a fleece zip up w/out hood. So the whole system helped keep me warm, but I understand I was testing the jacket and pants well below it's intended temperature expectation so layering was needed. All in all, I still gave it 5 stars as it seems to be quality, fits perfect for me, and complimented my winter set up well. Would definitely recommend.

    Awesome jacket.

    Published by Philip Simon on Feb 23rd 2022

    I would consider this jacket comparable to the arcteryx and Kuiu jackets. Very comfortable and warm. I am 6’1, 215 lbs, athletic build and the Large fits perfect for me.

    Helion Jackect

    Published by Ryan Pope on Feb 5th 2022

    Love this jacket so far. Had it for a few months but hasn't been cold enough for a true test in my area yet. Purchased the jacket to wear under a load bearing vest/soft armor during patrol functions. Wanted some with minimal bulk and warm. This definitely fits the bill. I normally wear a large in most of my t shirts and jackets but measured a medium in the Helion. Fit is perfect. Snug fit but not right, just right for wearing under armor. I'm 6', 185lbs. I wouldn't want to size up. Sleeves and tail are great length, but wouldn't want them any longer. Fit is just enough for my base layer and uniform shirt and not much else. Again, I'd say perfect for wearing under external soft armor. Would definitely recommend. Trust the size chart. The jacket is *extremely* light weight but very warm. 100% recommend.

    quality jacket

    Published by WhiskeyDeltaWraps on Jan 28th 2022

    This jacket is so light and comfortable you’ll forget your even wearing it until you get hot enough to want to take it off. Driving down the road with the AC on full blast I couldn’t even feel the arm that normally blasts my forearms, the Climashield really works well. This is my new favorite jacket hands down.
