I used them for about two years at work. The material is solid, but the stitching in the crotch is weak. The cargo pockets are large and spacious, but they stick out and look a little odd. I wouldn’t buy again. The biggest advantage is the price.
Shorts made in a cut inspired by the classic BDU model used by the US Army. They are sewn from a material that is a combination of durable cotton and stretch polyester with high tear and abrasion resistance. The material is also lighter and dries faster compared to 100% cotton.
The drawstrings at the waist give you the ability to adjust the circumference without having to wear a belt to the trousers.
The shorts are equipped with six pockets:
- two open side pockets,
- two back pockets with buttoned patches,
- two cargo pockets with buttoned patches.

Very sturdy trousers with plenty of pockets. The material and stitching are of high quality. They work well for everyday use and are worth their price. Perfect for hot, summer days. I definitely recommend them – they're great for anyone.
-
The quality of the products is low. In one pair, the trousers split at the crotch, in another, the buttons fell off. The threads used for sewing are very weak. The material seems okay, but the workmanship leaves much to be desired.
-
A classic cut inspired by BDU, made from a durable blend of cotton and elastic polyester resistant to tearing and abrasion. This material is lighter and dries faster than pure cotton. I definitely recommend them, great trousers.
-
I have been using these trousers for several years now, I bought them from the Militaria shop. The colour faded a long time ago, but the material is still durable, there are no worn spots, and the seams haven't come apart. I am 190 cm tall and weigh 100 kg – size XXL fits perfectly. For XXXL I would have to be much bigger (I checked). The product is lightweight and durable. I recommend them!
-
These are comfortable shorts that I often wore both at the shooting range and when going out to the forest. Adjustment is easy and allows you to fit them to the user, so I can recommend them.
-
Durable and solid trousers at an affordable price, additionally they have an adjustable waistband. My previous pair lasted me 10 years before the material wore out. The sizes are rather on the larger side. I recommend them.
-
The shorts are very solid. The material is thick and durable. However, I have a reservation about the cut – the legs could be a bit narrower because they look more like a skirt than shorts. Other than that, they’re fine. However, after getting to know Helikon shorts, I probably won’t buy this model again.
-
Average quality. The buttons fell off already after the first wearing and I had to sew them on. I also had to enlarge the buttonholes with a knife because they were too tight. The sizes do not match the description – the trousers are bigger than indicated by the chart.
-
The shorts are inspired by the M65 model. The material is very strong and resistant, it doesn’t wear through or fade, but in my opinion it is a bit too shiny – they could be more matte. The legs are wide, so you have to get used to it. If someone knows Mil-Tec’s long trousers or classic “sacks”, they’ll know what I mean. The side/cargo pockets are placed quite low and are very wide, so the contents can move around a bit. Another downside is the very small buttonholes in the fly.
-
I bought these trousers a year ago before going to a scout camp. After a year of occasional use, there are practically no signs of wear. The only downside is a detached button, but I don’t consider this a major flaw. The trousers are comfortable and have very spacious thigh pockets.
-
The overall workmanship is fine – sometimes you can see a few threads, but that's nothing serious. The shorts aren't very stretchy, but that's what I expected. The price to quality ratio is excellent. I highly recommend them!
-
The trousers differ in size – I ordered woodland and khaki in the same size, one is too small and the other fits, despite having the same label. The material composition has changed from 65% nylon to 80%.
-
Instead of 35% cotton, the shorts only have 20%, the rest is nylon. They are also a centimetre longer than the previous model. The composition, size, and length are always different – everything depends on the batch.
-
Considering the price, I was surprised by the possibility of using them without any problems throughout the whole warm season. The downside is the quality – the zips on the pockets are sewn on the edge, which makes it difficult to reach into them, and the buttons are slightly loose, although they hold well during normal wear.
