Size: 3XL

Lightweight and comfortable pants, great for summer use. The inner pocket is practical for smaller items. The space for a patch is fine, although it could be a bit larger. These pants are worth recommending.

I really liked the Helikon-Tex Utility Light shorts for summer and active wear. They are lightweight, comfortable, and do not feel as hot as denser tactical models. The material is pleasant, dries quickly, and works well for walks, travel, or trips outdoors. The fit is good, nothing feels tight, and they do not get in the way when sitting, walking, or staying active for a long time. The pockets are designed conveniently, and you can easily carry a phone, keys, a wallet, or other small items without them bothering you while walking. Shadow Grey looks understated and goes easily with almost any T-shirt or lightweight shirt. I also especially liked that the shorts do not look overly “tactical,” so you can comfortably wear them in the city. Of course, they are not an option for cold weather, but for summer, travel, and active leisure they are a very good choice. I am satisfied with the purchase.

Helikon-Tex Utility Light shorts are very comfortable, lightweight, and versatile. I regularly use them during various workouts and quickly grew to like them. Unfortunately, their price is very high and I have doubts as to whether they are really worth that much.

Fantastic shorts for hot days – lightweight, flexible, and easy to pack! Utility Light is an excellent choice for summer and intense outdoor workouts. The material is light and breathable, and the elastic fibers allow you to stretch in every direction. The shorts provide freedom of movement during squats and brisk walking. The Mud Brown color looks very natural and effectively hides minor dirt when used outdoors. They are so comfortable that you can hardly feel them. Highly recommended!

The main drawback is the too small number of belt loops, so the belt doesn’t stay in place after adding equipment or a weapon. If a version with more loops appeared, they would be perfect summer work shorts.

Lightweight and truly comfortable for hot weather and active movement. They fit securely, don't restrict or chafe even after wearing them all day. The material is breathable, dries quickly, and doesn't create a feeling of heavy clothing. Very simple and practical in use, without any unnecessary details. They give a feeling of practicality and control when your clothes don't distract you but work together with you.

Wonderful, comfortable, and high-quality shorts, they are perfect both as swimwear for swimming in a lake, sea, or river, as well as for regular city or casual use. Very stylish, high-quality, lightweight, have convenient pockets. Excellent shorts.

Very practical and comfortable shorts! The Helikon Utility Light model fits great, has many pockets, and is lightweight yet durable. Excellent for summer, both for outdoor activities and everyday use.

The shorts are great, I really like them. They are lightweight, thin, have zippered pockets and belt loops. Right now, they're my favorite pair of shorts.

The shorts are very comfortable and pleasant to wear. At first, I had doubts because of the price, but it was definitely worth it. Beautiful, deep mustard color and, as always, very fast shipping.

The shorts are very comfortable, at first I had doubts about the price, but it turned out to be worth it. The deep black color and, as always, fast shipping.

The shorts are interesting, lightweight, solid, and comfortable. I was worried that the numerous pockets might be annoying in short shorts, which should ensure freedom of movement, but my concerns were unnecessary. I recommend them.

Excellent shorts, they stretch very well, which is extremely useful during mountain trips – other, stiffer models would have torn long ago. Very comfortable, and an added bonus is the zippered pockets and a spot for a patch.

Summer, lightweight shorts now available at an attractive price as part of a promotion. Very solid workmanship. The shorts dry extremely quickly. I definitely recommend them for hot days, both for sports activities and for tourism.

I'm 172 cm tall and weigh 94 kg, I chose size L, which is quite loose and comfortable. The pocket on the hip easily fits an iPhone 13 Pro in a leather case, so it's spacious. I don't know what the back pocket is for, but you can unfasten it during hot weather because it's made of mesh, so it can provide ventilation. I'm satisfied – I think I would also fit into size M, because L has a lot of room in the waist and legs, but they fit very well and do not restrict movement. The legs, unlike those of regular shorts from other brands, stick out more in the front than in the back, which fits better with anatomy and gives more freedom. The front pockets are very deep, almost the whole length of the leg. The price of 175.99 PLN is high, I would buy again for 129 PLN.
