The trousers are very comfortable and pleasant to wear. Indeed, back pockets would be useful, but even without them, the trousers are still great. I chose XXL long and, although I had doubts about whether they would be too long, they fit perfectly (I am 196 cm tall – regular XXL would have been too short). The material is nice, and there is also a wide choice of colours. I definitely recommend them.

I am extremely satisfied with the purchase of these trousers. They look excellent and fit the figure perfectly. I am 185 cm tall and weigh 95 kg – size XL turned out to be ideal. I also appreciate the presence of an adjustable velcro instead of a button, which allows for a better fit. I recommend them!

Good, durable and practical trousers. Huge plus for the variety of colours and the option for protective pads. Quality – typical of Helikon, i.e. very good. Sizing is as expected. The only minus – no back pocket.

I've been using these trousers for almost a year on trips to the mountains or the woods, generally for various outings. As for resistance to fire, sparks, abrasions, and contact with the ground – they deserve a score of 10. I use original Helikon inserts. Above 10°C they get warm at the knees, but you can remove the inserts, so that's not a problem. In -12°C frost they keep you warm. Very comfortable and practical pockets, the velcros are great. The fly could actually be longer, but you can get used to it. To sum up, after wearing these out, I'll buy another pair. Someone once wrote that you could even wear them to a wedding – I confirm, I’ve done it myself. But not straight from the woods, just to be clear. The only downside is the 32 leg length – I miss the option of 30, I’m 176 cm tall and they’re a bit too long. But that can be solved too. I think Helikon should add the 30 option to every pair. I recommend them to everyone.

The trousers are very durable, ideal for the forest or military games. Only after a very long time did a small tear appear, but after stitching they look like new.

The trousers are very comfortable to wear. They are practically UTP Canvas without side cargo pockets and front thigh pouches. They will work well both in the forest and at work. They are best suited for autumn, winter and spring — in summer they might be too warm, although still wearable. For those curious about sizing: at 190 cm tall and 95 kg weight, XL fits perfectly.

Well-made and well-fitting trousers. The waist adjustment is excellent. Much better than models from Temu or Ali, they cost more but are worth the money. Additionally, it's a Polish brand, which also matters to me.

These are my next pair of trousers from this series, they perform excellently in all conditions. They fit well both for mountain outings and for the city. Very comfortable, perfect size, even after many washes they don't lose quality. Definitely recommend.

These trousers are suitable for spring, summer and warm autumn. With a longer walk in 0°C temperature, you might get cold in them. They have few pockets, which makes them less functional. You need to be careful around the campfire. I think it’s more worthwhile to buy strong jeans, for example 501. Personally, I'm disappointed.

The Helikon Woodsman Black trousers are a really interesting option in the offer of the Polish brand Helikon Tex. They are great for everyday wear and have roomy pockets. I recommend them.

Great bushcraft trousers – they have plenty of practical pockets, wide legs and are available in interesting colours. The order arrived very quickly and exchanging for a different size went smoothly. I highly recommend them. Paweł

The trousers are excellently tailored and comfortable to wear. At my height of 175 cm and weight of 74 kg, I first chose size S, but had to exchange it for M, which fits perfectly. The adjustable velcro belt is a very practical solution. I like the additional panel at the back with loops where you can attach various small items. The only thing I miss is a back pocket, but I don't consider this a flaw, I just got used to it from my previous trousers. If someone is looking for durable, functional, and stylish trousers, I can recommend this model.

My review after a year of wearing the trousers. I use them exclusively in the autumn-winter season. Size XL, height 178 cm, starting weight 88 kg, currently 80 kg. Thanks to the adjustable velcro waist, the trousers still fit great despite the weight loss. The colour of the trousers looks unchanged after a year. The side pockets are discreet but easily accommodate, for example, a 6.67-inch phone and don't interfere when sitting. Overall very good value for money.

I am very satisfied with the purchase of these trousers. They are well sewn, made from good material and comfortable to use. They also look very good. Polish brand, I recommend it.
