Helikon UTP PolyCotton Stretch Rip-Stop Trousers - Tiger Stripe

UTP (Urban Tactical Trousers) trousers are made of high-quality 220 g/m2 PolyCotton Stretch Rip-Stop material, which is characterized by high resistance to abrasion and tearing. Thanks to the numerous pockets and their rational arrangement, the model will be very suitable both in urban conditions and during outdoor activities.

The 220 g/m2 PolyCotton Stretch fabric used for the trousers is a combination of breathable cotton (50%), damage-resistant polyester (48%) and stretchable elastane (2%). It fits very snugly, and also features abrasion and tear resistance, and is lighter and dries faster than 100% cotton fabric.

Thicker Rip-Stop weave threads form a mesh that reinforces the fabric and prevents any damage from spreading to a larger area. 

The trousers are equipped with twelve pockets:

• two classic ones at hip height with reinforced edges,
• four on the thighs (two wide ones closed with a zipper and two narrow ones with Velcro),
• four on the back (two wide and two narrow ones located inside the wide ones),
• two internal pockets at groin level that can be used to carry a tactical torch or spare magazine.

In addition, inside the legs at the level of the knees there are compartments giving the possibility of placing protective inserts in them.

A wide Velcro instead of a button allows adjustment within 6 cm. An elastic band was sewn into the waistband of the trousers to improve the fit of the trousers to the individual features of the figure. The two front belt loops have been equipped with additional loops for attaching, for example, a carabiner.

Tiger Stripe is a family of camouflage patterns originating in Southeast Asia, the most popular variant of which is the pattern developed in the Republic of Vietnam. Its design is based on the French Lizard pattern, adapted for tropical conditions. Tiger Stripe consists of irregular, brushstroke-like stripes in shades of green and brown and wider, grayish lines, placed on an olive or khaki background. Such an arrangement works particularly well in dense jungles and tropical forests, where it effectively camouflages the silhouette among low and medium vegetation. The camouflage makes it difficult to detect at close range and allows one to blend into the dynamic, shaded vegetation background. The name "Tiger Stripe" alludes to the coat of tigers - the pattern imitates the natural striped color pattern, which works well in conditions that require effective contour breakdown in dense greenery.
