The trousers are very comfortable, breathable, and do not restrict movement, even during intensive work after heavy sweating. The front side pockets are well positioned and easy to access, even while sitting in a car. The price on this website was the best I found in Europe, especially considering the shipping options to other EU countries. I highly recommend this product.
Helikon-Tex MCDU DyNyCo Rip-Stop Trousers - Black
Tactical trousers in RAL 7013 created from high-quality DyNyCo Rip-Stop material, known for its high resistance to abrasions and tears, and additionally providing elasticity due to the presence of elastane. These trousers were inspired by those from the Polish airborne military uniforms. The innovative fit, elastic elements, and the applied fabric ensure exceptional freedom of movement and durability.
Rip-Stop material and elastic elements
The main DyNyCo material (49% nylon, 48% cotton, and 3% elastane) is characterised by durability and elasticity, while the Rip-Stop weave provides tear resistance. Inserts made of stretchable VersaStretch fabric with excellent breathability have been applied at the waistband, behind the knees, and in the crotch, further increasing freedom of movement.
Ventilation openings and Cordura reinforcements
Ventilation openings with zips are located on the sides of the legs, allowing excess heat to escape. An additional mesh protects against insects. Inside the legs, at knee level, there are pockets reinforced with very durable 500D Cordura, allowing for the insertion of internal protectors.
12 functional pockets
A total of 12 functional pockets consisting of:
- two inset at the hips
- two at the back
- two smaller above the cargo pockets
- two large front cargo pockets with zips
- two large rear cargo pockets with Velcro closures
- two calf pockets with zips
The edges of the hip pockets have been reinforced with additional material, extending their durability when carrying a knife or multitool.
Adjustable Velcro waistband
The trousers use a wide Velcro instead of a button, allowing for waist adjustment and individual fit. The fly is equipped with a zip fastener, and the belt loops are adapted for belts up to 40 mm wide.

Nice, very functional and pleasant to the touch trousers. I like the velcro adjustment on the waistband and on the legs, the velcro hasn’t worn out, great quality. The quality, as always with Helikon, is excellent.

I’ve used them long enough to write an honest review (78kg 184cm). Despite the name, these are tactical sweatpants, not something you’d wear in a combat environment – and there’s nothing wrong with that! I bought the pants to be used for high-speed trekking, and they suit well for this purpose as long as you have a beaten path or a trail to follow. For my offroad/through the bush activities I stick to the more expensive brands and tougher materials. The best parts of the pants are the ventilation paired with the lightweight fabric making it comfortable to move at a high speed in hot weather. The stitching is well made and the fabric and zip is of good quality. 12 pockets are overkill. They are quite narrow and the way they’re built, some overlapping, you can’t use them fully. If you stuff them all you’ll look like the Michelin man. Be mindful and pack intelligent. I prefer fewer and bigger pockets, but it suits the high-speed design. Lastly, I haven’t bought a pair of Helikon pants in a while and went with M-L as I used to but these are a bit longer than before(?) The legs are a couple of cm too long for trainers but quite good for boots, so they don’t pull up when kneeling. Overall, a good product but I wouldn’t buy them at full price.

The tactical trousers are made of high-quality material. They are sturdy and well sewn. Everything has been carefully designed. Size L 34/32 fits perfectly for a height of 184 cm and a weight of 90 kg.
-
The trousers are well made, have a practical cut, well-thought-out details and functionality. They fit the figure very well and are not as baggy compared to other Helikon models. The size fits, although personally I missed an M-short version, as it would have been perfect for me. This is another pair in my collection. Rating: 5/5.

The trousers work great during ASG games and I honestly recommend them for this purpose. When it comes to standing activities – I have no complaints. However, when sitting for longer periods, for example while fishing, the material quickly becomes damp and it's necessary to change underwear.

Helikon MCDU DyNyCo Rip-Stop Trousers - Black have their advantages, but even the size L Short turns out to be too long. Every pair of Helikons I buy, I have to immediately take to the tailor.
-
In my opinion, these are the best trousers from this brand. High-quality workmanship, a wide range of adjustments, plenty of pockets and good breathability. At this price, it’s hard to find a better option – I recommend them!

In my opinion, these are the best Helikon trousers – excellent quality, lots of adjustment options, many pockets, and they're breathable. I recommend them, as it's hard to find anything better for this price.

These are my second pair of these trousers... Only my second. They are comfortable, have capacious pockets, are functional, and very durable. They stand out with Velcro at the back and ventilation openings. They have proven themselves both during walking and mountain climbing, in summer and winter.
-
Like others, I can confirm – the trousers are very comfortable and have plenty of pockets. They are a bit warm, but I assume after a few washes this will improve. Overall, I recommend them.
-
The trousers are excellently made, have a thoughtful design, and are highly functional. They fit great and are definitely less baggy than some other Helikon models. The sizing is fine, though they come out quite long. I definitely recommend them.
-
This is already the third pair of these exceptional trousers. They are durable, flexible, have plenty of pockets, Velcro at the ankles and behind the knees, and thanks to the ventilation, they are very comfortable to wear even in hot weather.
-
Very comfortable and versatile trousers. They work perfectly for everyday use as they are practical, comfortable, and fit like a second skin, as well as during more intense activities. They are durable and, at the same time, flexible and comfortable. Thanks to the ventilation, they are great for summer, and they are not cold in the winter. I definitely recommend them — these are the best trousers I have ever had.
