Always a good idea to keep a small disposable poncho with the softshell / DWR type jackets, they're flat and easy to fit even in a back pocket like a wallet, so you can store one inside one of the jacket pockets so if it starts pouring buckets and you're stuck in it, you can always give yourself a waterproof layer.
Great tip, makes perfect sense. Those thin ponchos you get at a theme park are perfect. Thanks for the great idea
Cool review I like helikon-tex too because of the design (lots of pockets) and good quality
Climashield is a great insulation layer. I use it when I make comforters. Main advantage for sewing is it doesn't require to be sewn in place. Down and other synthetics require those sewn in squares (quilting) to keep them in place. Climashield allows for a cleaner look and really good insulation.
Another feature of this jacket is that there is a zipper cover on the collar that will keep your beard from getting into the zipper when it’s zipped up all of the way. One minor complaint is that the zipper is on the opposite side (lefty) vs every other jacket I have.
Happy birthday Moorlander!!👺👺
Thank you 🍻
Thanks for your review! I tried to get my hand on this model. Unfortunately it is not possible to buy one in Switzerland in my size. I tried the Helikon Squall hard shell. Strangely the neck part of the jacket was way to small. So it was totally uncomfortable to wear closed. I had to return it.
Oh no way. I was looking to pick up a Squall. I'll definitely keep that in mind whilst testing it out. Weirdly, I had a Rab double pile jacket a few years back that was similar. I couldn't zip it up without feeling uncomfortable wearing it. You'd think they'd make a few test lines and get people it's targeted for and ask them to try it on
as always great rewiev. I also like your hat - what's the model?
Glad to hear you enjoyed it. The hat is from Mil-tec. I made some content a few weeks back where it was included - th-cam.com/video/48N9NtdLhVs/w-d-xo.html
Awesome video's dude, compliments from the NL!
Quick question; was the Anorak you put on at the end also a size Large?
Glad to hear you enjoyed it. Yes, that was also a large 👍
@@MoorlanderEDC Thanks for the reply.
Keep up the great content, will keep watching bro!
Stay safe. Stay Level 7 Moorlander. Stay dangerous.!
FYI, HT Europe sizing is different from US sizing. Depending on where you're ordering from, be sure to check the sizing
Agreed. I've started to check the measurements over the traditional sizes
The Level 7 was my introduction to Helikon Tex. 🎉
I believe the internal mesh pockets are intended to dry wet clothing.
Makes sense with the internal pockets
Could you also do a review of the Husky Jacket? Seems pretty similar to this one.
Leave it with me. I'll see what I can do 👍
@@MoorlanderEDC Your reviews are amazingly in-depth by the way, glad I found your channel
Would it fit under the sas smock???
If I went for an XL SAS over a large Level 7 yes. The SAS does wear smaller than other Helikon large jackets. The Wolfhound sits under the SAS way better
Nice … but expensive for just knocking about in the woods in. I feel for the money, I wouldn’t want to be doing half the stuff I would be doing in it, tbh. It would get wrecked.
All the best👍🏾😉🇬🇧
Fair enough, that's a fair comment. It's definitely a tough exterior, however if you're bush whacking and need something tougher you'd probably be better with something like the Woodsman with a Wolfhound jacket beneath. They make an amazing combination
according to Helikon site the smallest is an XS which is 126cm???? Im only a 40" chest which is about 102 cm chest...(unless im being a bt thick)
Yeah, the maths doesn't seem to work there
@@MoorlanderEDCyou mention you bought a large and are a 44/46 chest, so based on that logic i would probably buy a medium but that would suggest I have a 131cm chest according to their measurements on the site..... might just buy a medium and a small and return one
What is the size ??
This is an EU Large 🤙
Ive been looking to buy that jacket for years,nearl 200 quid now
Have they gone up in price? I wonder if it's the insulation or something similar that's increase in costs recently
i think on amazon a couple of years back you could get em for 139 pounds but now 179, so must be the cost of the insulation and maybe shipping costs as well,one thing i did wonder is i remember you saying the wolfhound had a rustle to it when you moved,is it the same with the level 7?
I'd say the wolfhound rustles way less than the Level 7. The Wolfhound sounds more like a light synthetic sleeping bag. There's a rustle but it's not overly load and if you wear it under another layer it's hardly noticeable. The nylon on the Level 7 is thicker and more ridged (but not super ridged, just not as free flowing as the wolfhound) so you definitely hear the rustling more. It almost sounds like a hard shell than a softshell
Hope that helps buddy
@@MoorlanderEDC thanks mate thats awsome info,think i will get the wolfhound,your reviews are what shows us gear and the truth about it
