HELIKON Tactical Shirt RAID PolyCotton Stretch Ripstop - Black

RAID PolyCotton Stretch Ripstop Tactical Shirt by Helikon-Tex

The RAID tactical shirt represents a modern version of the classic uniform shirt, which is ideal for service and everyday activities in the city or outdoors. The shirt is made from Polycotton Stretch Ripstop fabric (cotton, polyester, elastane), giving it stretch and greater freedom of movement.
One of the key features of this shirt is the raglan construction. The sleeves are sewn directly into the collar, so there are no seams on the shoulders, providing greater comfort when worn under a service vest as there is no pressure or rubbing on the shoulder area.
This model draws inspiration from the historical development of uniform shirts from the M42 Parachute Uniform of the 1940s through the TCU (Tropical Combat Uniform) of the Vietnam War to the BDU (Battle Dress Uniform) introduced in the U.S. Army at the end of the 20th century.
Thus, this shirt represents a modern version of the best of these classic models with modifications for maximum comfort and efficiency not only for professional use.

The RAID shirt features 8 pockets, designed for maximum practicality.

  Located on the chest with Canadian button closures.

• Two internal mesh pockets:
  One with a zipper and one open on the chest, ideal for storing a map or notebook.
