The Denim Stretch pants have a different cut compared to other UTP models (Canvas/Ripstop) and are noticeably smaller than the same pants made from other materials. Even after stretching them completely, they remain smaller. The pictures show the Denim Stretch in size M Regular next to the Canvas M Regular model.
Helikon-Tex UTP PolyCotton Rip-Stop Pants - Ash Grey
Tactical UTP (Urban Tactical Pants) pants made of high-quality PolyCotton RipStop fabric with elastane (60% cotton, 37% polyester, 3% elastane), which provides exceptional resistance to abrasions and tears. This fabric is lighter and dries faster than pure cotton, increasing comfort during use. The well-thought-out placement of multiple pockets makes this model perfect for urban environments as well as outdoor activities.
Combination of comfort and durability
A unique combination of military and civilian style – a discreet look combined with the functionality of combat pants.
Modern fit, carefully planned seams, and high-quality fabric ensure great freedom of movement and durability.
12 practical pockets
This model offers twelve pockets, including:
- two classic hip pockets with reinforced edges,
- four thigh pockets (two spacious with zippers and two narrower with Velcro closures),
- four back pockets (two wide with Velcro closures and two smaller ones inside the wide ones),
- two inner pockets near the groin, ideal for a tactical flashlight or spare magazine.
Additionally, there are special pockets at knee level for protective inserts.
Precise fit
Instead of a classic button, a wide Velcro strip has been used, which allows for 6 cm of adjustment around the waist. An elastic band sewn into the waist improves the fit and increases comfort.
Two front belt loops are equipped with additional loops that can be used to attach, for example, a carabiner.

The pants are extremely comfortable and sturdy. I consider the Velcro fastening instead of a button an advantage. The sizes are accurate. I highly recommend these pants; they will also work well for everyday use.

I have three pairs of these pants in different colors and I’m satisfied with their quality. Keep in mind, though, that stretch models should be ordered one size up. At my height of 180 cm and weight of 90 kg, I bought two previous models made of fabric in size L, but for these I had to choose XL because L was too tight. As for durability, I have no worries – I’ve had the first pair for over a year and the second for almost a year, and nothing bad has happened to them. Each pair is worn intensively and washed regularly and there are no signs of wear. The stretch version seems even more durable and has thicker material. They are very comfortable to wear and I definitely recommend them.

The pants are very comfortable, they adapt to movements, and have well-planned and numerous pockets. It would be worth considering using Velcro or a zipper in the back pockets. It's a pity there is no 'short' version in the size range. I definitely recommend these pants.

Hello, The pants are very comfortable, durable, and versatile, with a large number of pockets in various sizes. On summer days, they are even airy and light. Suitable for everyday use, work, and outdoor activities. I already have a second pair; I highly recommend them.
-
A beautifully designed style, which can be seen, among other things, in the convenient access to the pockets, whether I'm standing or kneeling. I think I already have 5 pieces in different shades. The dark-colored ones up close resemble ordinary pants.
-
I now have 2 pairs of pants of this model and I am more than satisfied. Price/performance is excellent. The fabric is comfortable to wear and even after many washes, it hasn't warped or shrunk, and the color is still just like on the first day. The wearing comfort is great and the pockets are positioned so that you hardly notice the contents.
-
I recommend these pants – they are suitable for winter thanks to their thickness, so they protect well against the cold. They won't work during heatwaves or rain. Thanks to the addition of elastane, they are comfortable and provide freedom of movement. The pockets are well designed – they don't hit your knees, and their number is sufficient.
-
The pants are well made from durable material. The price is attractive compared to the quality of workmanship. The order was processed quickly and without any problems; time will tell how they perform with longer use.
-
The pants are well-made, the sizes correspond to the chart, and they are very comfortable to wear. The order was fulfilled super quickly and without any difficulties—I was able to pick them up the very next day. I definitely recommend them.

Helikon UTP PolyCotton Rip-Stop pants are a classic choice in their category. They have an interesting and functional cut that works well both for everyday use and for more demanding activities, such as at the shooting range. The pockets are well designed, and there is also space for knee pads. The material and color are great. I recommend them.

Helikon UTP PolyCotton Rip-Stop are classic pants of their kind. They have a comfortable and thoughtful design, making them suitable both for daily wear and for more demanding tasks, for example at the shooting range. The pockets are well planned, and you can also add knee pads. The material and color are very good. I definitely recommend them.
-
Excellent pants, very comfortable to wear, they have a lot of pockets placed almost everywhere. I especially recommend the light colors, because on the black ones you can easily see hair and small particles.
-
I chose size M at a height of 1.77 m and weight of 80 kg, the pants fit perfectly and after the first tests I feel they will become one of my favorites!
-
Very good denim pants, they have plenty of pockets and are well made. At first I wasn't convinced by the Velcro instead of a button, but it turned out to be practical. The pants have a fairly high waist, but the elastic waistband makes them stay up well even without a belt.
