These shorts are really amazing. I chose them because of the number of pockets – they have as many as ten, so I can store everything and no longer need to carry my wife's bag :-D I chose size L, as usual, but I recommend considering buying a larger size. They're not tight, but a looser one would be more comfortable for me. They also look really good for everyday wear. I definitely recommend them.

The material and appearance are good, but the stitching quality leaves a bit to be desired. It will work for fishing. The size matches the M mesh - 32 US. I have somewhat mixed feelings about this product and think the stitching should be better.

PRIMA SORT shorts. A bit expensive for short pants, but worth their price. They fit great, full of pockets like the long version, so if you don't wear a fanny pack you can fit everything, they're cleverly placed. The blend of elastane and polyester with cotton ensures stretch and wearing comfort, convenient for bending, squatting, etc. At a height of 186 cm and 90 cm waist, size L is spot on. The only thing I would change is the Velcro at the waist to a solid button—you can't have everything :) I'll sew it myself one day :p I really recommend them.

Very nice and comfortable, I have two colors, khaki and gray. Nothing happens to the color or material. Washed in the washing machine and dried in the dryer. I recommend it.

All year round I use equivalents with longer legs. However, for holidays I always choose short Helikon ones. It's a pity that XL sizes were already sold out in the promotion, but thanks to the amazing adjustability, even XXL fits me reasonably well. Practical and comfortable.

Sensational, I recommend buying more colors. Lots of pockets and very durable material, I have tested the shorts on several trips and there are no signs of wear. The Velcro at the waist is convenient instead of a button, the zippers in the pockets are first class.

The shorts are very durable and comfortable. Wearing them all season didn't affect them at all. Many thoughtfully designed pockets make it easier to organize various items. The belt loops are very strong and large, so the shorts can be worn with very thick belts.

Super comfortable shorts. The thoughtful placement of pockets makes trips easier. The color looks better in real life than in the pictures. The sizing matches the chart. Great purchase.

They combine the look of classic denim with the functionality of workwear. They provide comfort and freedom of movement, which makes them a good choice for warmer days. Their universal character makes them suitable both for everyday activities and more dynamic use.

These are yet another pair of short UTPs from Helikon that I have bought. I believe that for everyday use in summer they are great—you can assign each pocket a different, permanent use and you never have to look for your keys/wallet/phone again because everything has its own fixed place. The material doesn’t wear out at all, even with intensive use. The smartphone pockets are very functional—the phone is easy enough to take out that it’s not a problem, but on the other hand, they’re tight enough that no one will manage to take your phone without you noticing. I recommend them :)

Very well-made shorts and worth their price. A big plus is the flexibility and the possibility of adjustment with Velcro at the waist. The large number of pockets is also an advantage. I highly recommend!

The best tactical/outdoor shorts I've ever had. As comfortable as sweatpants, yet as durable and spacious as cargo shorts. A must-have for summer for every outdoor enthusiast, prepper, or simply anyone who values solid clothing. I recommend taking your standard size—the waistband is elastic and fits well.

Solid, comfortable shorts. Well-placed pockets, extra points for the large number of wide belt loops. Good waistband elastic. Strong, durable material.

The workmanship of the shorts, as always for Helikon, is excellent. The number of pockets will probably satisfy everyone, even the most demanding. The material is very soft to the touch, so they 'fit' very well.
