A great addition to the previously purchased shirt from this set. Very comfortable, do not restrict freedom of movement. As mentioned below, they do not pull out leg hairs or cause irritation, which was often an issue with other men's models. They provide good thermal insulation even at -12 degrees and during long walks.

Helikon US LVL 2 Long Johns - Olive Green
Helikon-Tex thermal leggings designed as the second layer in the ECWCS (Extended Cold Weather Clothing System) used by the U.S. Armed Forces. The set is made from lightweight and durable Comfort Dry fleece, which effectively wicks moisture away and retains body heat. The addition of elastane makes the fabric flexible and ensures freedom of movement.
Thermoactive Comfort Dry fleece
The underwear is made from Comfort Dry thermal fleece, composed of 95% polyester and 5% elastane. The fabric dries quickly and efficiently wicks moisture away from the skin, ensuring thermal comfort even during high-intensity activity. A grid-like weave structure increases the evaporation surface, while the fleece fibers provide excellent insulation in cold conditions. The set integrates well with other layers of the ECWCS system or other thermal clothing, making it ideal for cold and transitional weather.
Fitted leggings
The leggings are fitted with elastic bands at the waist and ankles, ensuring a snug fit and helping retain body warmth. The fabric and cut allow for unrestricted movement. A traditional fly is included for practicality. Flat seams help reduce the chance of chafing and skin irritation.
Main Features
- made of thermoactive Comfort Dry fleece
- flat seams that minimize the risk of chafing

They are warm, hold heat very well, are light, and the material is soft and pleasant to the touch on the inside. I chose size L, they are quite loose, but the legs could be a bit longer. I am 192cm tall and have an 88 cm waist.

Extremely warm and comfortable. I am 182 cm tall and weigh 104 kg, size L fits perfectly. I bought them to go with the top and together they work great. You couldn't find anything better for winter days.

I already have a complete set of the new LVL1 underwear from American military warehouses. Now it’s time for LVL2. The ECWCS clothing system (the Americans say: 'ekwiks') is really well-planned and durable for cold weather conditions. I felt proud seeing on the labels that Helikon-Tex makes contract clothing for the US Army. I still have BDU trousers from this brand, bought over two decades ago. The company's development over the years is truly impressive.

This is definitely the best product I have used – I use them as thermal underwear for sleeping in a tent and for cold days outdoors. They retain heat very well. I sincerely recommend them.
-
They definitely serve their purpose. Essential for winter and cool autumn days under a uniform. They keep you warm and dry quickly. High quality. Used intensively and show no signs of wear. I recommend them.

Very comfortable and well made, the size chart is accurate. They work excellently outdoors, keep you warm, and don't irritate the skin or pull out hairs like my previous pairs. I really recommend them.

Very good quality. I thought it would be poor, but Helikon did not disappoint. Very comfortable to the touch, they keep you warm on cold days. I recommend them.

Very warm, good workmanship, you can buy without hesitation.
-
I haven't used it yet because the current temperatures are too high for this type of clothing. However, the opinions and reviews are positive, so I probably won't be disappointed. I will test it when it gets to around zero degrees, but I can already recommend this product.
-
The trousers are made of good quality materials, but it was difficult to get the right size. They are quite wide.
-
The product is really of high quality.
