Excellent shorts. They look stylish and are very practical! This is another model that I have purchased. The pocket placement is great! The service in the store, as usual, is at a high level!
-
The shorts are great, that's why I bought a second pair already. Very comfortable and have roomy pockets. The small pockets on the back are perfect for a knife, and the magazine pockets easily fit a larger smartphone. I use them all the time. There are no signs of wear, only the color faded slightly, but that's normal with intensive use. Highly recommend!
-
Very comfortable shorts. They don’t restrict movement, and thanks to the elastic waistband, they stay put. The pockets are functional and spacious – I no longer need a waist bag. Additionally, they are somewhat water-resistant.
-
Very comfortable and well-made shorts. Equipped with numerous, functional pockets for small items I often carry. The material dries instantly, which I appreciated during trips. Highly recommend!
-
EXCELLENT SHORTS! They have practical pockets, well tailored, a Velcro adjustable waistband, YKK zippers – the only downside is the buttons tend to fall off. This is already my second pair of this type, just longer. I will definitely buy more.
-
Very comfortable shorts, with a huge number of pockets and a great cut. The material is durable and breathable. Perfect for both mountain trips and everyday use. US woodland camouflage is a classic. I am very satisfied with the purchase and recommend it!

Helikon UTS 11" PolyCotton Rip-Stop shorts are high quality and very practical. They are light, airy, and the durable Rip-Stop material makes them great for hot days. They have a comfortable cut that doesn't restrict movement, and many pockets that fit all necessary items. It's really a good choice for summer.
-
Fantastic cut. Exceptionally comfortable and airy. They go with everything. They have a lot of pockets. The material is of very high quality. I sincerely recommend them. I am very satisfied with my choice.
-
Excellent shorts, they worked great during a week-long camping trip – they dry quickly, are lightweight, and size XL fits my body perfectly (190 cm, 97 kg) and doesn't need a belt. The color is fine, I recommend them. The downside is they don't protect against ticks ;)
-
The UTP and UTS series from Helikon are the best pants a man can get. I don't know of more comfortable models. With a large number of well-placed pockets, the manufacturer could even throw in a map! Everything here is perfectly thought out. I would even award a Nobel Prize for comfort just for the velcro belt.
-
Great pants, this is already my third pair. They are lightweight, well-cut, made from durable yet suitable material for hot weather. They have plenty of pockets that can hold many everyday and occasional items. It's a pity that my size isn't available in other colors.
-
They are comfortable and lightweight, yet made from strong material. Lots of pockets. At first, I had doubts about the Velcro closure, but in practice, it's convenient and doesn't cause problems. At the promotional price – a very worthwhile purchase.
-
The UTP and UTS cuts don’t need special praise. I have three pairs of UTP in different colors, including khaki, and UTS RipStop in olive. Both materials are extremely durable. Now I bought the UTS in khaki – a great, non-military color, ripstop works perfectly in summer. Perfect shorts from an amazing store.
-
Interesting summer pants, made of lightweight and durable fabric, well sewn. Definitely worth buying at a promotional price. This certainly won't be my last pair of this model.
