Size: S Long

I previously had the heavier version of these pants, and now I finally chose the lighter version. And I have to say, it was a great choice. It’s the same material used for the shorts that I also have, and it really works excellently in summer, especially on warmer days when I need to wear long pants, for example to places with a specific dress code. Absolutely fantastic! Besides that, they have all the advantages typical of this model: lots of pockets, their very practical placement, great material, and a good fit.

Size: L

The biggest advantage of these pants, apart from Helikon’s proven cut, is the material they are made of. It is lightweight, stretchy, and practically unnoticeable when worn. They work great on hot days. Size L fits well for someone who is 182 cm tall and weighs 78 kg.

The sizing matches that of OTP (for size S X-long, color Black); the leg circumference is the same as OTP (even though some people claim that the leg in this model is very narrow). The material is thin, lightweight, and stretchy—great for warmer days. Unfortunately, there was an issue with correct size labeling during production. In the photo, you can see that the same model in the same size but in a different color (Shadow grey) has a leg that is several centimeters shorter. So, if something is wrong with the size, the reason may not be a change in sizing by the manufacturer, but rather incorrect labeling of the product at the production stage.

As always a good product, very light so it is perfect for sunny days. If is perfect with tropical shirt. Good in a range with sand as they will not graph sand on them.

At 30 degrees Celsius, I felt comfortable; the pants are very comfortable, have a lot of surprisingly roomy pockets, and seem exceptionally sturdy. Additionally, they look aesthetically pleasing and are not too flashy.

These are the best pants I have ever worn: they are lightweight, flexible, fit perfectly, and do not restrict movement. The cut has been well thought out, and items in the pockets fit very comfortably. This is already another pair of these pants in my wardrobe.

The pants are exceptionally comfortable, I ordered them for my ancestor, who is very pleased with them. He wanted to buy all the green variants as well, but the short M size is no longer available.

The pants are very light and thin. Personally, that doesn't suit me, but I'm not taking away points because they might be perfect for someone else for summer. Due to the delicate material, they don't fit as well and don't allow for knee pads, which I needed, so I returned the product. Such information should be included in the description of both the Lite and the regular versions.

Another pair of pants from this series in a different cut. This time, they are made of exceptionally thin, stretchy material, which increases comfort. However, despite choosing the same size (M-Short at 178 cm and about 82 kg, no belly), I feel that the bottom of the legs is narrower than in previous models, which may be due to a different type of material.

This is my next pair of pants from this series (UTP), size M short at 178 cm and 80 kg, no belly. They are very light, made of thin, stretchy material, perfect for hot days. However, because of the material used, the bottom of the legs feels narrower than in the same pants made from thicker fabric. I don't like baggy cuts, but because of the narrowing of the legs, my thighs look wider, so overall the appearance is a bit worse than the previous version with the same cut and size.

This is already my next pair, this time in a larger size, as I mentioned earlier – definitely worth spending money on these pants. Especially for summer work in uniform – they are breathable, comfortable, and don't rustle when walking. I also have the first OTP model without the 'lite' label, which does rustle a bit, but this model doesn't.

In my opinion, very light and comfortable pants. I don't understand why people say they rustle – for me, they feel like a second skin. I think they might be confusing them with the classic OTP, which are actually thicker and rustle more. Breathable, perfect for summer, and that's exactly why I bought them. It's good to choose the right size – I had to exchange mine and now they're great. I recommend them while they're still available in the full size range, because later at Helikon you have to wait a long time for restock – they're very popular not only in Poland!

The pants are very comfortable and lightweight. They are perfect for hot days and have practical pockets. I have the short version, and now also the long one.

Very lightweight and breathable pants. The material is thin but durable. Best from May to September. For my measurements (188 cm / 105 kg) size 3XL fits best. The pants do not make noise while walking. I recommend them!
