Helikon Pilgrim Trousers - Ash Grey/Black

When choosing the trousers, I noticed that the size chart is quite large and unexpectedly different from the standard sizes I have seen before. Despite this, I chose size S Regular. The size fit well, although I personally would have liked a bit more room and for the trousers to be a little looser in the crotch area. Overall, I am satisfied with the purchase and can recommend this model to other buyers. The materials are of very high quality and durable.

In my opinion, these trousers are great for the forest. As for the pockets – some of the criticisms are valid, but with the right arrangement everything fits. The material is fantastic, and additionally the trousers have two attachments for special braces, allowing you to load the pockets heavily. The high waist at kidney level is also a big plus. I definitely recommend them.

At first, I wasn't convinced by this model, as I had never had it before. However, after trying the product on in the shop, I changed my mind. I was so positively surprised that I decided to buy it. Once again, Helikon rose to the occasion and did not disappoint my expectations.

The trousers are very comfortable to walk in, both on level ground and uphill. The pockets bulge outwards, so they don't press against you. The material handles kneeling in the forest well and doesn't get dirty easily. The higher back improves the look, keeps the trousers in place and protects against the cold. The material doesn’t get soaked in the rain – the water beads up on the surface. Size M Long fits perfectly on a slim person 195 cm tall. I highly recommend!

This is already my second pair of these brilliant trousers. They work well in the mountains, trekking, and at the shooting range. They have a comfortable fit, are light and very durable. They work well with knee pads. I especially appreciate the high back. I definitely recommend them.

I am very satisfied with my purchase. The trousers are comfortable, and the raised waistband ensures your back isn’t exposed when bending down during camp work. The cargo pockets are well positioned, and the small pockets inside are great for keeping small items. The only downside is the width of the cargo pockets – they are quite narrow when putting your hand in, but then they’re very spacious.

I've had these trousers for almost a year and have never regretted the purchase. They are very high quality and practical, maybe the most technologically advanced trousers I've ever had. Thanks to the well-thought-out pockets and inner mesh organisers, you can adjust them as tactical trousers. A special pocket for knee protectors is a great idea. The pockets are conveniently placed and nothing gets in the way. The material is durable, flexible, and comfortable. In hot weather, they're a bit warm around the waist, so they'll work better in cooler conditions. I'm very pleased with these trousers and plan to buy another pair.

The trousers are extremely comfortable, the material is soft and the cut is slightly narrower than the SFU Next model in the same size. I don’t quite understand the lack of a button in the fly. The cargo pockets could be larger, but the back pockets are interesting – the contents don’t get in the way while sitting. Size Large Long fits perfectly for a person 175 cm tall and 82 cm at the waist. I’ll probably buy another pair.

I bought these trousers with forest hikes in mind. They are really comfortable, and the pocket layout is very well thought out and adapted to the anatomy, if you can put it that way. Even with full pockets, nothing pinches or gets in the way, regardless of whether I'm sitting or squatting. Additionally, the loops for braces are very practical for those using M65 trouser braces. I definitely recommend them.

Very good trousers with large pockets. Size M for 167 cm and 73 kg fits the waist perfectly, although the length is a bit too much – but thanks to the drawstring at the cuffs, you can easily adjust them and wear them over tall boots.

After a few months of use, the Velcro on the waist holds less and less. The side pockets are too far back – when I sit down I have to move things so I don't crush them with my thigh. The phone compartment is almost at the back of the leg, so it's easy to damage it when sitting down. The main pockets are shallow. The back pockets aren't practical – they're too narrow for a hand, and carrying a knife in them is uncomfortable because you end up sitting on it. On the plus side: very good material and solid seams. A big plus also for the long option for tall and slim people.

Extremely comfortable outdoor trousers! Very well made, perfectly fitted, with a raised back to protect the kidneys. The additional zip pockets are a big advantage. The only minor downside is that the knee pad pockets are on the inside of the leg, making them harder to reach. Otherwise, the trousers are excellent!

It's worth checking the W-L size chart carefully – I had to exchange XXL Long (W38L34) for XL Long (W36L34), as the trousers are also intended for people with a bigger build. The belt loop isn't as wide as it might seem – 38mm is the maximum. The trousers are comfortable, made from good materials, and have adjustable legs, but no waistband adjustment, so a belt or braces (two-point braces from M65 fit) will be useful. These are really nice trousers.

These are my first Pilgrims, but another pair of trousers from this company – in black. They're more fitted than the others I own. I also have 4 pairs of UTP in various fabrics, as well as shorts, and these are definitely different. At first, they feel tight at the waist, but when moving they’re comfortable and do not restrict movement. The pockets are a bit narrow. Thanks to the Cordura blend, they give the impression of sturdy work trousers, which is what they will be used for. Unfortunately, everything does stick to them, especially hair, but despite this they are comfortable and I’ll try other versions. The leg length is perfect, but it’s not worth comparing sizes to other models like UTP. There's also a Velcro button, which makes it easy to adjust the waist. This is a purchase I am happy with.

I'm 185 cm tall and weigh 100 kg, size XL is just right. The trousers are very practical, durable, and versatile. The material is soft but protects well against wind and unpleasant scrapes from branches in the forest. They don't restrict movement, and the seams don't rub. The pockets are spacious and flexible. On a full-day trip with kids, I had everything at hand without needing to reach for my backpack. I haven't noticed any flaws. I sincerely recommend them.
