Product delivery was very fast. The pants are really nice. They don't restrict movement, the pockets are roomy—including the back ones. The color is well saturated. The downside is the hip drawstrings, which do a poor job of keeping the tightened strap from loosening again. If you don't have a good belt, when the cargo pockets are fully loaded, the pants might slide down.

Overall, the pants are fantastic. The pockets are large and practical. I can fit a DSLR camera in the thigh pocket. Contrary to appearances, the magazine pockets are also useful. I have to deduct one star for the quality of workmanship. The seams are crooked in some places. The biggest problem was the buttons, because right from the start the main button needed to be sewn on. I managed to get them for about 45 PLN. I recommend them.

Very solid tactical pants. The Helikon-Tex CPU fits well, is comfortable, and has many practical pockets. The cotton rip-stop is durable, and the WZ.93 Pantera PL Desert pattern provides good camouflage in the field. They work well both for airsoft and for everyday outdoor use.

Nice pants But Helikon's sizing is a disaster now. Last year's size M CPU was perfect, now the M has a good waist but the crotch is 10 cm too low, and they're baggy in the back like a sack. Similar problem with SFU S: I had 4 old pairs that fit fine, but the two new S pairs I tried were too tight, and the 2 M pairs were way too big. Helikon really messed up the sizing.

The pants look really nice – not too thick, but they give the impression of being made from strong material, good pockets on the calves, and this great camouflage – there are no other pants with such colors. But the sizing is terrible. The S size is impossible to fasten, and M hangs like a sack and I’d probably have to tie them at the waist with a string and shorten the legs by 10 cm. I'm a standard M – 175 cm tall, 82 cm waist... I had to return them.

Super pants, very functional. The big advantage is the number of pockets and the elastic bands tightening the pockets, thanks to which items don't move around inside. However, I would replace the drawstrings at the leg cuffs with Velcro. A great solution is also two small open pockets, as under one arm I keep a multitool and a larger knife.

A good alternative to the MON pattern, comfortable, well-thought-out pockets, quick-drying, cargo pockets with drawstrings are also useful. Overall, a good product.

Durable, lightweight, quick-drying, all positives. The only issue is with the sizing. After measuring my old pants, I ordered the new ones in M long, which actually turned out to be size L. The exchange process was very smooth, so that's another plus for the store.

The pants confirm Helikon's quality. Still shining. Just buy and wear them. Known cut, perfect workmanship, great material. Very comfortable. They dry on the seat. They wear great.

Pants of very good quality. Solid and durable material. Nice colors. However, I would recommend them more for sandy, beach-like terrain. For the forest, the color is too light. In my opinion, the sizing is oversized. I suggest taking a size smaller.

Great practical pants, well sewn, pockets well placed, each one serves its purpose for me, good for wearing in higher temperatures, but the cotton also blocks wind so they're good for spring or autumn days too. Highly recommend.

I always wanted desert camo and I finally got it. The pants aren't too thick and they look solid, a fair amount of pockets, and a less restricting cut than the SFU – it does the job. I recommend!

Very good pants with a quite wide cut, but they are very comfortable. I bought a size smaller than I usually wear and they fit perfectly. They have plenty of pockets, which allows you to carry a large amount of gear. They are reinforced in critical areas, which should prolong their durability. I recommend using them together with Helikon Low Profile Protective Pad Inserts. Perfect pants for summer trips.

The pants are excellent. The number of pockets will satisfy everyone. The cut is a bit more fitted than the first SFU Next model. For me, the front slanted pockets were too narrow, but the tailor fixed them because there's extra material, so even the biggest smartphone fits easily.

Very well-fitted and made pants. Great camouflage. My previous pants lost color after 10 years of intensive use, so I had to buy new ones. The price is very attractive. I recommend them.
