Perfect trousers for my use. I intended to use these for hillwalking in slightly cooler days. They are stretchy and fit well. I’m 6ft and medium build. I got the M long. The material is great, 4 way stretch and windproof and water resistant. The velcro fastening is actually really good as it’s comfortable and allows for a little adjustment. Belt loops are great if needed and there are plenty of pockets which are mesh lined for ventilation. It doesn’t have leg vents or leg adjusters at the bottom of the legs but there are small holes to add these which I might do. The quality and construction is amazing especially at that price. I got the red as I like bright colours for hillwalking but these have many uses. I work outside and these would also be perfect for that. I’m considering buying the lite version as well for hot days. Highly recommend them.

The trousers are extremely comfortable, flexible, carefully made and very well designed. The material is similar in feel and wear to softshell. I also had the UTP model, but in my opinion these are better. I usually choose trousers in size 34-36/32, and size L turned out to be perfect for me.

Great trousers for three-season trekking and mountaineering. I wasn’t familiar with the full Helikon-Tex range, but after watching some YouTube reviews, I decided to order a pair of these VesaStretch trousers as an alternative to products from more popular brands. I bought the red and black version — a colour scheme I usually wear for outdoor activities — which happened to be on sale. After receiving and testing them, I feel they hold their own against products from Fjällräven or Columbia and are far superior to those from CMP or Decathlon. The velcro fastening, the amount of belt loops and pockets, the YKK zippers... are all great features, all at an unbeatable price. I am 1.84m tall and weigh 90kg, and I usually wear size XL in Helikon-Tex trousers. However, when I tried this model on, they kept slipping down from my waist due to the material’s elasticity, so I returned them and ordered a size L instead.

Great trousers – the material is stretchy and of good quality, which makes them very comfortable. The trousers are comfortable, elastic and pleasant to the touch. The material is thin but quite dense, so on hot days they can be warm to wear, but that's the case with all trousers during a heatwave. The size fits perfectly. They are excellent.

My first Helikon OTP pants , my biggest worry was find perfect size but on 88 waist , hips 94 and my height 178 cm , size M (32 /32 ) is perfect which on any other brands would be to thith but design whit velcro and material of pants make them now my primary summer when on job (work pants) ,, all standard like D rings, pockets for mags are on ..holes for stoppers 👍🏻.. Shure I will try another model from Helikon .... Loving this model , comfortable on heat especially when pockets are open even better

Some time ago I bought them on sale (if I had known the price would go up so much, I would have taken a few pairs). On a daily basis I wear UTP, but when the heat came, I pulled these out of the wardrobe. I have to admit – they are great. Very light, fit the legs perfectly 😂. Thanks to this, my legs don't sweat. The pockets are made of mesh – it feels like wearing swimming trunks with longer legs. The girls glance in Biedronka, and the guys envy the look (and these trousers). Definitely recommend!

I have the UTP, UTS, OTP and OTS. Each of them is great: they are comfortable, solid, functional, and in my opinion, they also look good. The price isn't the lowest, but despite that, I think it's worth buying them.

Great trousers – the material is stretchy and of good quality, which makes them very comfortable. I wear them every day. Although they are thin, I don't feel cold during winter walks to work. They've also proved themselves on mountain trips. I definitely recommend them; they are my favourite trousers.

Very stretchy pants. I'm 178cm tall and weigh 75kg. Medium regular is a perfect fit for me. A bit on the loud side if you like quiet fabric. Quality feels superb!

Very comfortable trousers. I have two pairs – one grey, the other beige. I wash and tumble dry them often, and so far I haven't noticed any signs of wear. As for the colour, it's hard for me to judge as I don't have anything to compare with newer models. For me, they're great for transitional seasons, that is, autumn and spring. However, in summer, although the material is thin, I do feel it's a bit too warm and makes me sweat.

Review for model:

I have tested these trousers thoroughly by wearing them every day. I also own UTPs made from RipStop material, but the OTP models with VersaStretch are more breathable, more comfortable, and lighter. The additional reinforcements mean that even in areas prone to wear, the trousers do not get worn out (I wear a multitool and badge on a clip every day – without any signs of wear). The only issue is putting a pen in the front, narrow thigh pockets – this caused the material to rub slightly on the surface. I will definitely buy them again or go for an improved version if it becomes available on militaria.pl.

These trousers are very comfortable – I already own two colours, grey and beige. They provide effective protection against the wind, and at temperatures between 0-10°C they can be worn directly on the skin. However, when it gets above 15°C, they become too hot. The pockets are arranged similarly to the UTP model, which suits me very well. I am 190 cm tall and have a waist of 106 cm – I wear size XXL in the Long version.

The trousers are comfortable, stretchy and pleasant to the touch. The material is thin, but quite dense, so on warmer days they might feel hot, but that is the case with all trousers in the heat. The size fits perfectly. They are great both for shooting and for trekking.

The trousers are very light, comfortable, and carefully made. The colour in reality differs slightly from that in the photos. The material rustles a little when walking, which may bother some people – it is worth considering this before purchasing. The pockets are excellently positioned and practical. The material is flexible, durable, and dries quickly. Overall, it is an excellent product, although the price is high. I recommend it!

Great trousers – light, dry very quickly, and are very comfortable and stretchy. The pockets are designed conveniently. I’ve just ordered another pair. Highly recommended.
