Description
Trooper Mk2: Lightweight, Flexible, and Functional
The Trooper Mk2 is the upgraded version of the popular Trooper jacket and a lighter alternative to the Blizzard series. This softshell jacket is specifically designed for tactical and outdoor users who value freedom of movement and functionality. Weighing only 713 g and featuring a smart design, it strikes the perfect balance between protection and flexibility without carrying unnecessary weight.
Lightweight and Flexible for Maximum Freedom of Movement
The main material of the Trooper Mk2 is Helikon’s StormStretch fabric, which is 98% nylon and 2% elastane. This combination makes the jacket particularly flexible and durable. Nylon is known for its high durability and abrasion resistance, which is especially advantageous in demanding environments. The small amount of elastane ensures the jacket remains slightly stretchable, allowing for maximum freedom of movement without sacrificing fit. Additionally, the mesh lining, made from 100% polyester, ensures optimal moisture management and quick drying, which is invaluable during physically demanding tasks or bad weather.
Function and Comfort
The Trooper Mk2 features an ergonomic fit that is not only comfortable but also provides enough space for an additional insulating layer. This makes it highly versatile, as it can be worn on cooler days or in unpredictable weather. Thanks to the adjustable hood, which can be stowed in the collar when not needed, the jacket provides protection from wind and light rain. The hood of the MK2 version is also equipped with a contoured visor, improving visibility in harsh conditions. An extended back panel protects the kidneys from cold and wind—an often overlooked but critical detail for outdoor activities.
Smart Pocket Placement for Optimal Access
A key design element of the Trooper Mk2 is the well-thought-out placement of the pockets. The four outer pockets are positioned so that they remain easily accessible, even when wearing a backpack or waist belt. Two chest pockets, equipped with integrated organizers, offer ample space for essential items, while the two shoulder pockets provide extra storage for smaller gear. Additional pockets on the forearms or hips were intentionally omitted to save weight and improve accessibility.
Tactical Features for Professional Users
Notable are the hook-and-loop panels on the shoulders, allowing for easy attachment of patches or tactical badges. These details highlight the jacket’s focus on professional use while still being suitable for leisure activities. The Trooper Mk2 remains a versatile choice for anyone looking for a durable yet lightweight jacket that excels in both tactical operations and outdoor adventures.
Improved Fit for Greater Comfort
Compared to the previous version, the Trooper Mk2 offers a slightly looser fit, providing enhanced comfort and allowing for additional layers underneath. This makes the jacket particularly adaptable to varying weather conditions. Its light weight and flexibility ensure that the jacket does not restrict movement or become uncomfortable, even during extended wear.
