A tragedy. I am 177 cm tall and weigh 75 kg. Leaving aside the fact that I have rather short legs and every pair of trousers is too long for me, the issue here is the specific cut of these trousers. I ordered size M, and it was far too big. I ordered size S, and it was far too small. I somehow managed to fasten them, but the side and back pockets were stretched so tight that they are practically unusable. The trousers have a very uncomfortable and impractical cut — a low rise, a very narrow waist, and very wide legs that get even wider toward the bottom. It so happens that I am between sizes, but honestly I cannot imagine doing any physical activity in trousers cut like this that requires frequent squatting, sitting down, standing up, and so on. I was looking for practical work trousers. These are definitely not suitable for that. I am forced to return them again. It is a pity that returns are not free.

Average, low-rise trousers I bought them expecting classic cargo pants, but the cut didn’t really suit me. The trousers sit quite low on the waist and feel very much like low-rise pants, which won’t suit everyone for this type of military-style trousers. The quality of the Rip-Stop fabric and the overall workmanship from Mil-Tec are fairly OK for this price range, but because of the rise and the cut, the wearing comfort is just average for me. It depends on personal preference, but I probably wouldn’t buy them again.

Size: L
At first glance, the fabric of the trousers seems sturdy. However, the legs are definitely far too wide and do not match at all what is shown in the attached photo. The measurements for size “L” are: waist 100 cm, inner leg length 80 cm, and outer leg length 109 cm. It is possible that size “M” would also fit, but unfortunately based on the provided measurements I am unable to assess that.
-
The pants are very good. They look sturdy yet not too thick, suitable for warmer days. The pockets are very spacious. Choose one size smaller than you usually wear! I recommend them.
-
Great pants, you don't feel them on you and they are very functional, especially on summer days. Durable, the only problem is the sizing, because it's best to try on someone's purchase and then there's a good chance you'll get the right size. I recommend them.
-
Nice, lightweight, nice material, unfortunately I returned them because they were too big and there weren't any smaller ones. I really regret it because that's exactly what I was looking for. I'll keep an eye out, but when I tried them on, they felt perfect.
-
Very well-made pants, I highly recommend them, they are durable and cause no problems. The color doesn't fade or wear off. Good pants for this price, definitely worth recommending.
-
I recommend these trousers, they are worth buying. Good, durable material, the cut is also good. They are perfect for work or longer use. They don’t chafe and don’t cause any problems.
-
Good trousers, they are okay, the material does not wear out easily, stains wash off easily, the camouflage pattern does not wash out, stays unchanged. Good and durable trousers that are worth recommending for this price.
-
Second pair bought, although the first one has been 'feeling great' for seven years. But it's getting a bit tight in the waist. Material and workmanship excellent (as usual, you need to reinforce the buttons).
-
Airy yet very durable and comfortable pants. No flaws. Together with the shirt, they're simply amazing. Thanks to the elastics and drawstrings, there's a lot of room to adjust the fit precisely. I recommend them.
-
The workmanship itself is not the worst, the material is also okay. But the sizing is a massacre. L is more like XL and loosely at that, legs like potato sacks. I returned them. Wanted to exchange for M but I fear even in M the legs will be like bags. For those who like a lot of room in their pants, I recommend, the price/quality is very good.
-
This is my second pair of the same kind. The previous ones were bought, attention, in 2020 and are still whole despite being put through airsoft, the shooting range, the forest, only fading over time. The sizing is okay, material is great, MARPAT is almost like the original – I have a real BDU set next to it and at first glance, you can't see a difference in colors. The belt loops are quite thin, the waist adjustment is basically just a regular string. Overall, I recommend.
-
This is already my second pair, the first ones lasted a very long time and are still good. Pants you don’t even feel you're wearing, perfect for hot days, especially after about three washes. For this price, there’s nothing to think about. Sewn like original military pants with very well-designed pockets. I recommend.
-
The trousers are very comfortable, especially for summer. The sizing runs small by about 6 cm in XXL, so it's worth starting with a smaller size. In case of returns, Militaria.pl acts very quickly and efficiently.
