Direct Action Vanguard Combat Trousers - Flecktarn

Combat trousers in Flecktarn camouflage, designed for full mobility during tactical operations. Made from durable NyCo Rip-Stop fabric that effectively protects against tears. Stretch panels made of elastic material enhance user comfort. The knees are reinforced with 500D Cordura and feature internal pockets for pads.

Durable and flexible construction

The main material is NyCo Rip-Stop fabric, composed of 50% nylon and 50% cotton, offering high resistance to abrasion and mechanical damage. In the areas of the knees, crotch, and seat, elastic and breathable stretch panels have been used to prevent the trousers from shifting and to improve freedom of movement.

The knee area is reinforced with 500D Cordura, providing increased tear resistance, and features pockets for internal knee pads. The pockets themselves are made of breathable polyester mesh, enhancing ventilation.

8 practical pockets

The model features a total of 8 functional pockets:

  • two classic hip pockets with reinforced edges
  • two front zippered pockets with internal organizers
  • two thigh pockets with hook-and-loop closure
  • two lower leg pockets, also secured with hook-and-loop fasteners

Spacious thigh pockets allow you to carry a large amount of gear. The flaps can be tucked inside and left open thanks to Velcro fasteners. The interior of the hip pockets is made of breathable mesh that helps remove fine debris. Their edges are reinforced with Cordura, which increases durability during daily use with tools such as a knife or multitool.

Adjustable waistband

Instead of traditional buttons, a YKK zipper fly and Velcro closure have been used, allowing for easy waist adjustment depending on the number of worn layers. The inner side of the waistband is lined with soft 3D Mesh polyester fabric, which minimizes the risk of chafing and enhances ventilation. Reinforced belt loops allow for comfortable carrying of even heavier tactical belts.

Tailored leg cuffs

The leg adjustment is done using Velcro straps located behind the knees and at the cuffs, allowing precise fit to both the body shape and worn knee pads.

Flecktarn camouflage

Flecktarn is a classic German military camouflage pattern, officially introduced for use by the Bundeswehr in 1990. The pattern is based on small, irregular spots in five colors – typically dark green, olive, brown, black and beige. With the distribution of numerous dots and blurred boundaries between the colors, Flecktarn effectively distracts from the wearer's silhouette in forest terrain, as well as in scrubland or against the background of forest undergrowth. The camouflage was designed for European climatic conditions, especially for the temperate zone. To this day, Flecktarn remains a standard pattern used by the German army, other military and police officers. Its effectiveness has led to numerous variants and adaptations in other countries.

    Direct Action is a combination of the highest quality materials, thoughtful design and comfort – I have no reservations. These are the most comfortable trousers I've ever had. Worth every penny – I wholeheartedly recommend them.

    The most comfortable trousers I've worn so far – I definitely recommend them! The material and cut are at a superb level, and although they are fitted, they don't restrict movement. Direct Action — simply the ideal.

    Very comfortable, but they are not intended for professionals or for work. The trousers reflect light strongly in night vision. Even though this is a top-shelf product, I found it disappointing. They are rather suitable for shooting range or youth airsoft.

    The main advantages are excellent workmanship, very high seam quality, and superb material. Anyone who decides to purchase will certainly appreciate this brand. I definitely recommend them, worth the price!

    These trousers are definitely worth their – not insignificant – price. Brilliant workmanship (although I did notice a slight fraying of one thread ;)), as well as careful selection of materials and thread. These are some of the few widely available tactical trousers that don't restrict movement, even though they're not too loose. The cargo pockets are placed at the right height and sewn so that even when full, they don't get in the way while running. I definitely recommend this product.

    Truly brilliant trousers. High-quality fabric, very carefully sewn, with a thoughtful and precise cut. They are very comfortable. The number of pockets is just right. It's a Polish brand – definitely worth the price. Nothing but positives.

    Great trousers with a large number of practical pockets which are easy to use while moving around or driving. Size matches the description. The price is high, but for those who need such comfortable and well-fitting trousers, they’re worth considering.

    The trousers are well made, using high-quality materials such as NyCo, Cordura, and stretch fabric placed exactly where needed. This makes them comfortable and durable. They are a great alternative to much more expensive models from other brands, also made from the same materials, in original Multicam camouflage. The thoughtful pocket layout allows you to keep all your essentials close at hand. They could be very slightly wider in the thighs, but that's a matter of personal preference. Highly recommended!

    The trousers are carefully made from high-quality materials with various properties. The use of NyCo, Cordura, and stretch fabric in the appropriate areas ensures comfort and durability. The pockets are well positioned and allow you to take all the necessary things. They could be a bit looser in the thighs, but that's a personal preference. Overall, I recommend them!

    I am delighted with the comfort and precision of workmanship of these trousers. Size M fits perfectly, there is plenty of material everywhere and the trousers fit well during movement. They are worth their price, and I am now planning to buy the multicam version. As usual, the delivery arrived lightning fast. I also like the Helikon brand, but compared to models like the UTP, the difference is huge.

    Fantastic trousers from one of my favourite brands. I highly recommend Helikon and Direct Action products – Polish brands. It's worth supporting our own manufacturers. I can't compare them to ufpro or Carinthia models, but the trousers are light, flexible, comfortable and at the same time solidly made. Highly recommended.

    A very good, much cheaper alternative to Crye trousers. The adaptive green colour is a shade between coyote and olive. It’s a shame they’re not also available in coyote. Overall, the fit is comfortable and convenient.

    Excellent quality trousers, well fitted. Very practical Velcro straps on the legs and around the knees. The knees are additionally reinforced with Cordura. Extremely comfortable. As always, Direct Action and Helikon guarantee high quality. The package from Militaria also arrived very quickly.

    These combat trousers are very comfortable and allow for freedom of movement, even in difficult conditions. Thanks to the tailored fit and elastic panels, they make it comfortable to work during dynamic activities. The durable material increases their longevity, and the well-designed pockets improve functionality. They perform excellently in intensive use, offering great practicality and versatility, especially due to the thoughtful pocket arrangement. However, they are not thick enough to protect against sharp bushes, but they are perfect for active movement.

    These are definitely the best tactical trousers I have had the chance to wear. Initially, I had some concerns, but now I know they're worth every penny. You get exactly what you pay for. The workmanship is at the highest world-class level – perfectly stitched, no loose threads or production errors. Comparing them to UF Pro trousers, which are twice as expensive, these are better in terms of comfort and nearly twice as light. UF Pro compared to these is like wearing bricks. Lots of stretchy material above the knees and at the back provides full freedom of movement and breathability. The inner waistband, lined with soft fabric, prevents chafing and wicks moisture well. These are the best cargo trousers I know. Note: Mon inserts are incompatible and you need to buy dedicated ones from Direct Action or make your own out of foam mat.
