Helikon-Tex Jacket TROOPER MK2 - StormStretch®, Taiga Green

• lightweight and flexible StormStretch® material
• adjustable hood stowed in the collar
• 4 pockets that don't interfere with backpacks
• hook & loop panels on the shoulders

Improved version of the acclaimed jacket

The new iteration of Trooper and the younger sibling of Blizzard, Trooper Mk2, is a lightweight outdoor jacket with a more practical design and a better-fitting size range. It allows for unrestricted movement thanks to its slightly elastic main material. It serves well as a tactical jacket, evident from the hook & loop panels on the shoulders and its emphasis on functionality. Well-known and highly regarded features of the Trooper and Blizzard jackets return in a modern form as the Trooper Mk2.

New, more comfortable fit

The looser fit makes Trooper Mk2 an excellent choice as a softshell outer jacket, and on colder days, you can layer something warmer underneath, like the Wolfhound Hoodie. The main material used is StormStretch®, a lightweight nylon with a hint of elastane, which makes the jacket comfortable and non-restrictive. It serves as a lightweight layer that protects against cold and moisture, aided by the well-thought-out design of the stowable hood with a contoured visor. The extended cut safeguards your kidneys from the wind.

Well-planned pockets

Well-placed pockets are essential. Trooper Mk2 has them in locations that don't interfere with backpack straps and hip belts, making it an excellent choice for outdoor. Outside, there are two pockets at chest height with organizers, and two on the shoulders. Considering its purpose, weight, and quick drying, we have omitted the kidney-level pocket (the so-called "poacher's pocket") and the small forearm pocket.
