Helikon BDU trousers MK2 - Olive Green

I bought Helikon BDU MK2 trousers because I couldn't get the proven Helikon UTP PolyCotton Canvas models. After testing substitutes and reading reviews, I chose these. Overall, I'm satisfied – they are comfortable, have spacious pockets, and are made from a good fabric. I chose a standard size L and it was appropriate – I easily adjusted the waist using the straps, and shortened the legs while keeping the style. I recommend them!

I recently took the Helikon BDU MK2 – wz.93 Pantera to the mountains and they performed brilliantly. They are comfortable, have practical pockets, reinforced knees, and the legs stay in place well. They work perfectly in rough terrain and during outdoor activities.

The trousers are very good, both in terms of workmanship and functionality, but for the material, which is largely plastic, I can only give 3 stars. At higher temperatures, my legs sweat as if I were wearing cheap work trousers. I miss the previous materials with at least 80% cotton.

The trousers are made of high-quality RipStop material, making them resistant to damage both during outdoor activities and everyday wear. They have numerous pockets in different sizes, so you can keep all your essentials close at hand. Adjustable drawstrings at the waist and leg cuffs allow you to tailor the trousers to your figure and preferences.

The trousers have a very well-fitted cut and are thoughtfully designed for functionality, the legs are slightly tapered, but you can get used to it. The pockets are practical, especially the side cargo one. The button fly is an advantage – zips can sometimes break. The material is durable. I definitely recommend them.

Solid cargo trousers in the best possible camouflage. Very good quality workmanship and high wearing comfort. This is yet another pair of these cargo trousers that I've bought, and once again I'm very satisfied.

These are classic cargo trousers from our Polish brand Helikon. Very solidly made, with the typical pocket arrangement found in BDU trousers. The cut is wide. The material, compared to, for example, the Texar WZ10, is thinner but seems strong.

The trousers are excellently made, I have no complaints about the quality. However, on the black material, hairs and dust are very visible, even after using a roller there are still some left. I didn’t notice this problem with the green version.

These are my first cargo trousers and I really recommend them. They are comfortable, sturdy, and have enough pockets. The drawstrings at the legs work great. I will definitely consider buying another colour.

The trousers are made from very good material, but I have reservations about the sizing – I ordered my usual size M and they were clearly too big, while S turned out to be too small even though the difference should have been minimal.

The trousers are solid and as described. However, it’s worth remembering that Helikon’s sizing varies depending on the model – what fits in BDU may not fit in another cut. Delivery and return service flawless. I recommend.

The trousers are well made, but the buttons came off quickly (probably because of my ‘tactical belly’), so I had to sew them back on myself. The cargo pockets are spacious enough to fit even small groceries (bananas shown in the photo for comparison).

Compared to the previous Helikon BDU1 model, these have slightly narrower legs at the bottom, so they are no longer as wide; the cut is similar to the Pentagon BDU. An extra small pocket has appeared at the front, the same as in the Pentagon BDU. Unfortunately, the side mini pockets that distinguished the BDU1 and were very practical have been removed. The hand pockets could be deeper (maybe just in my pair). Currently, the BDU2 are average combat trousers, nothing special.

The trousers are excellently tailored and well thought out, the legs are somewhat tapered, but you can get used to them. The pockets are very practical, especially the cargo ones. The button fly is a plus, as zips can sometimes fail. The material is very durable. I recommend them!

The material seems a bit thinner and more comfortable than in the case of the SFU Next PolyCotton Rip-Stop, which I find stiffer. The legs are noticeably narrower, but there is still comfortable room in the thighs and crotch. I have some sentiment for them because the first woodland pair I bought was from surplus in 1993. I recommend them.
