The shorts are solidly made and adequate for their price. I especially appreciate the flexibility and the ability to adjust the waist size thanks to the Velcro straps. The numerous pockets are also an advantage. I highly recommend this product!

Helikon UTS 8,5" PolyCotton Rip-Stop Shorts - Black
Modern UTS (Urban Tactical Shorts) tactical shorts, made of high-quality PolyCotton RipStop fabric (60% cotton, 37% polyester, 3% elastane), are exceptionally resistant to abrasion and tearing. Lighter than 100% cotton fabrics, they also dry much faster. The thoughtful layout of numerous pockets makes the shorts perfect for urban environments and outdoor activities.
Above-average freedom of movement and durability
A perfect combination of military and civilian clothing features — a subdued fit and the functionality of cargo pants. The innovative design, carefully placed seams, and the material used guarantee above-average freedom of movement and high durability.
10 spacious pockets
The shorts are equipped with ten functional pockets:
- two traditional pockets at hip height, with additional reinforcements at the edges
- four on the thighs (two wide zippered pockets and two narrow pockets secured with Velcro)
- four at the back (two wide and two narrow located inside the wide pockets)
Easy fit of the pants to the figure
Instead of a traditional button, the shorts feature a wide Velcro fastener with 6 cm of adjustment. The waistband is equipped with an elastic band for a better fit. Additional loops are placed at the bottom of the front belt loops, allowing you to attach a carabiner, for example.

These are the best tactical and outdoor shorts I have ever used. They're as comfortable as sweatpants, and at the same time, as durable and spacious as classic cargo shorts. For every outdoor enthusiast, prepper, or anyone who values the durability of clothing, these are an absolute must-have for summer. I recommend choosing your usual size – the waistband is elastic and fits well.
-
Solid and comfortable shorts. The pockets are well-placed, and the many wide belt loops are an added benefit. The elastic waistband works well. The fabric is strong and durable.
-
The workmanship of Helikon shorts is, as always, at a very high level. The number of pockets should satisfy anyone, even the most demanding user. The very soft material ensures great comfort.
-
These are the second shorts I’ve bought this summer, and just like the first pair, they are very comfortable. They have lots of pockets and the color hasn't faded. I recommend them with a clear conscience.
-
I am very satisfied with these shorts. After a whole summer season, I can confidently give them 5 stars. They're comfortable even on hot days, and the functional pockets allowed me to pack all my gear for forest trips.
-
Very good shorts, well made, but in my opinion there's something wrong with the sizing. I also have the stretch version and even though they're the same size, those ones seem smaller and fit better. In this case, the size appears bigger than it actually is.
-
Helikon UTS shorts are characterized by comfort and durability thanks to their strong fabric. They work great for everyday use and outdoor activities. Well-fitted and equipped with practical pockets, they offer high functionality.
-
Great shorts, very comfortable. I like the pockets just like in the UTP cargo pants, which I also own. The ripstop material is resistant to abrasions or tears when exploring bushes. I recommend them!
-
Very comfortable and practical pants, ideal for outdoor activities. Definitely worth buying – this is another pair I have from this series.
-
The shorts are comfortable, breathable, have a length of 8.5 inches, and excellently organized pockets, which works well for everyday use. They also proved themselves during a three-day kayaking trip. I wholeheartedly recommend them.
-
These are already my fourth UTS shorts, as always the durability of the material, the practicality of the pockets, the proper length, etc., are all positives. The downside is that I've noticed they've become increasingly narrow. I've had all of them for over two years in the same size, but the latest ones have noticeably tighter legs, so only 4 stars.
-
I already have several pairs and didn't hesitate to buy more. This model is a hit—I can recommend it to everyone. I think I’ll order other versions for my wardrobe.
-
Very comfortable shorts. If they're on sale – there's nothing to think about. I highly recommend them and hope they last a long time. +++++++++++++
-
These shorts, regardless of length, are very practical and comfortable. I bought the long version first, then the short one. The 8.5" version is shorter than typical shorts, which may not suit everyone.
