Great pants with versatile use. Before purchasing, it's worth trying them on because they have a rather fitted (slim fit) cut. In this MCDU version made of DyNyCo material, the pants are noticeably more flexible and provide greater freedom of movement than the NyCo fabric variant. However, the material feels less "armored."
Helikon-Tex MCDU DyNyCo Rip-Stop Pants - Olive Green
Constructed in Olive Green, these tactical pants utilize premium DyNyCo Rip-Stop fabric, renowned for its superior resistance to wear, abrasions, and tears, while delivering enhanced flexibility due to the integration of elastane. Drawing inspiration from the trousers worn by Polish airborne forces, the model incorporates an innovative cut and elastic inserts. The specialized fabric and advanced design ensure outstanding durability and exceptional freedom of movement.
Rip-Stop fabric and elastic inserts
Primary fabric is DyNyCo (composed of 49% nylon, 48% cotton, and 3% elastane), known for its durability and flexibility, while the Rip-Stop weave ensures added tear resistance. Inserts crafted from highly breathable, stretchable VersaStretch fabric are strategically positioned at the waistband, behind the knees, and in the crotch area, maximizing freedom of movement.
Ventilation openings and Cordura inserts
Zippered ventilation openings are located on the sides of the legs, enabling the release of excess heat. Integrated mesh provides added protection against insects. At knee level on the inside of the legs, reinforced pockets made from highly durable 500D Cordura are designed to hold internal protectors.
12 spacious pockets
Outfitted with a total of 12 practical pockets
- two hip inset pockets
- two back pockets
- two smaller compartments positioned above the cargo pockets
- two generously sized front cargo pockets secured with zippers
- two spacious rear cargo pockets featuring Velcro closures
- two calf-level pockets equipped with zippers
Hip pocket edges are reinforced with a supplementary layer of fabric to enhance durability during the carry of a knife or multitool
Waist adjustable with Velcro
Wide Velcro fastenings replace traditional buttons on the pants, providing waist adjustment and personalized size fitting to accommodate various body shapes. The fly features a zipper, and belt loops are designed to support belts up to 40 mm wide.

Size: S
After previously using the camouflage version (Helikon-Tex - MCDU NyCo Rip-Stop trousers - wz.93 Pantera PL Woodland), I chose the MCDU DyNyCo Rip-Stop model in RAL 7013. The trousers still fit great and, just as before, stand out thanks to their well-thought-out details and functional pockets. The material seems a little different than in the previous variant (DyNyCo instead of NyCo), but it still gives the impression of being solid, durable, and high quality. I particularly liked the RAL 7013 colour because it is discreet and works well both in the forest and in the city without attracting too much attention.

I am very satisfied with these pants – they are very comfortable, do not restrict movement, and the pockets are practically placed and offer plenty of space for small items. The only thing I missed was the S Short size, so the pants are a bit too long. Fortunately, you can tighten the cuffs and the bottom of the legs, so they fit well and it does not interfere with use. At this price, they are definitely worth buying.

Exceptionally comfortable — it doesn't restrict movement, the material is very breathable, and the pockets are extremely functional. Even when you sweat, you have complete freedom, because the fabric doesn’t cling too much and doesn't restrict mobility. The fit is great, and the combination of materials is excellent. I definitely recommend it!

These trousers are extremely comfortable, even when you sweat. They have side ventilation openings that work perfectly and allow free movement of the legs. Highly recommended!
-
The trousers are very comfortable, lightweight and do not restrict movement, even during intense exercise and heavy sweating. The front side pockets are placed in a practical way and remain easily accessible even when driving a car. The price on this site was the most favorable among all the offers I found in Europe, especially with the option of shipping to other EU countries. I definitely recommend this product.

These trousers provide a high level of comfort, are lightweight, and do not restrict movement even during increased activity and sweating. The front pockets are practically located and accessible, even while driving a car. The price on this site was the best I found in all of Europe, especially considering the shipping options to EU countries. I definitely recommend this product.

The trousers are aesthetically pleasing, very practical, and pleasant to the touch. I appreciate the possibility of adjustment with Velcro at the waist and legs; the Velcro is durable and has not worn out. The quality of workmanship is high, typical of Helikon.

I have used these pants long enough to give a reliable review (I weigh 78 kg and am 184 cm tall). Even though their name contains 'tactical', they are simply sweatpants meant for outdoor use, not pants for combat applications – and there’s nothing wrong with that! I bought them mainly for fast trekking, and in this role they work very well, but only as long as you stick to hardened paths or trails. When I go off designated routes or through thick bushes, I prefer more expensive brands with sturdier materials. The biggest advantage of these pants is the very good ventilation and the lightness of the fabric, which I especially appreciate on hot days—thanks to this, they are comfortable to use. Well-made seams, high-quality material, and a good zipper are additional advantages. In my opinion, 12 pockets is a bit too much. They are rather narrow and arranged in such a way that some of them overlap, making it impractical to use them all. If you fill every pocket, you will look puffed up. Personally, I prefer fewer but larger pockets, which fits better with the idea of moving quickly. Additionally: I haven’t bought pants from this brand in a long time. I traditionally took size M-L, but I have the impression that now they’re a bit longer than before. The legs are a little too long for sneakers, but they work great with higher boots since they don't ride up when kneeling. In summary: a very good product, but I wouldn’t decide to buy it at the regular price.

The tactical trousers are of very good quality. Sturdy material and workmanship. Everything is carefully thought out. Size L 34/32 fits perfectly for a height of 184 cm and 90 kg.
-
The trousers are very well made, with a thoughtful cut and functionality. They fit very well and are definitely less baggy than some other Helikon models. The size is ok, the only thing missing for me is the M-short size, which would be perfect for me. 5/5. These are another pair of trousers for my collection.
-
The trousers are mainly used for airsoft games, and for this purpose I honestly recommend them. Moving around, standing, that's good. But don't sit in them for a long time (for example, when fishing) because it immediately gets damp and your underwear will need to be changed...
-
Helikon MCDU DyNyCo Rip-Stop Pants - Black have their potential. However, they are too long, even the L Short size is too long. Every pair of Helikon pants I buy goes straight to the tailor.
-
In my opinion, the best trousers from Helikon. First-class workmanship. Wide range of adjustment, plenty of pockets, airy. I recommend them—probably nothing better at this price.
