These trousers are an absolute hit for me. I had been searching for a long time for the perfect, long and breathable trousers for summer, and I finally found them – none others compare, especially in comparison to the Columbia Silver Ridge Utility, which were the worst for me. Their advantages (breathability, stretchiness, appearance, cut) are already widely described, so I won't repeat them. I really like the side thigh pockets – my large smartphone (8x17 cm) fits perfectly. I have a few minor comments: personally, I'm not a fan of Velcro as a fastening and I think the legs could be a bit wider – I'm 184 cm tall, weigh 75 kg, wear M long and they usually fit great, here they're quite fitted in the thighs, so summer trousers could be looser for better air circulation. But those are details, because overall – outstanding trousers!

I took the risk of trying them in the summer heat, and the reviews blew me away!! But when I got them in my hands and put them on — it's simply amazing))) Super lightweight, cool to the touch... It seems transparent in the sun when you hold them, but once worn you feel lightness and comfort; the fit is perfect. You can wear them anywhere: office, street, walks around and outside the city. These are truly technological trousers. Thanks to the website for the promotional price and to Helikon for the quality. Height 171, weight 80, took size M and it fits perfectly. You can also insert soft pads in the knees, bimba.

Size: M
Very lightweight and breathable trousers, with additional ventilation openings behind the knees and at the back. They are comfortable, pleasant to wear, and are excellent for summer. The material dries quickly.
-
I bought them to be used as breathable hiking pants, but they almost look like dress pants, so they will probably be used more as casual pants. They feel really great to the skin, feels really breathable. Happily surprised with them!
-
The trousers are great! They are stretchy, breathable, soft and very comfortable, and also have the right number of pockets. An additional plus is the presence of eyelets for an elastic cord on the trouser legs (in some versions Helikon forgets this, and it's a really useful detail). A note for buyers: the material of the trousers is rather delicate, at least for my use. After two trips to rocky three-thousanders in the Alps, there were a lot of scuffs and holes. So if you plan to use them intensively on rocks or among branches, it's better to consider a different model. For other outdoor activities, these trousers are ideal for summer.
-
These are already my second pair of trousers of this type. The material is light and airy, and the cut is great and they fit very well. I recommend them to anyone looking for comfort and convenience.
-
This is the third time I've bought these trousers; I always choose a different colour. They're great for warm days because they breathe well. It's a pity there's such a limited colour selection – if there were more colours available, the product would be even more popular.
-
These trousers are really great. Very comfortable, provide good air circulation, and they have lots of pockets. It's just a pity that none of the pockets have zips – it would have been useful to have one, for example, for car keys or a wallet. I usually have trouble finding trousers in the right size, but Helikon also offers Long versions, which is a great option for tall people. Very good trousers for everyday wear.
-
The trousers are light and work great in the summer, and they are also durable. Very comfortable. The material is pleasant to the skin. They fit perfectly for a height of 182 cm. The finish is of a very high standard. They dry instantly. I definitely recommend them.
-
The trousers work great in summer thanks to the unique material. They are perfect for everyday outfits in the city and have a comfortable fit. Low ankle shoes go best with this model of trousers.
-
The trousers are very thin, stretchy and comfortable, so they will definitely be useful in the summer. I am not sure how suitable they will be for winter, but for autumn and spring they should also be appropriate.

The Helikon Trekking Tactical Pants AeroTech - Black are a real hit. They are airy, lightweight and perfect for summer. They are suitable for work, the shooting range, and family gatherings.
-
These trousers are great and provide good air circulation. The material is very pleasant to the touch, although it sometimes becomes static. It's a pity the pocket arrangement is not typical and they lack classic thigh pockets, and also there are only three colours available. I am very happy with the purchase and will definitely buy another pair in the future.
-
The trousers make a very good impression. They look breathable, the size and colour are appropriate. They get a bit static on the legs, but I expected that after reading the reviews. They will be perfect for hot days.
-
Great trousers, though they work best in good weather and higher temperatures. They have an attractive cut, are very light, and the aerotech material is a brilliant choice for hot days. I definitely recommend them.
