In my opinion, the sizing is good; I didn't notice it being oversized. The 46 cm size is the same as W36. The material is of medium thickness and is quite stiff, but it should soften after washing. The shorts are noticeably shorter and have narrower legs than Helikon BDU shorts. The pockets are fastened with Velcro, and the fly has a zipper—I personally prefer a button closure. The color matches the picture. Overall, the quality is good.

PentaCamo Camouflage
PentaCamo is a modern camouflage pattern developed by Pentagon Tactical, combining classic and contemporary approaches to masking. The pattern is inspired by the Greek Lizard camouflage, visible in a pattern of large, irregular spots, and the popular MultiCam, from which the color scheme was derived and small spots were added to improve the mimetic properties. PentaCamo uses shades of green, brown, and beige to provide effective camouflage in a variety of environments. It works particularly well in Central European conditions in autumn and early spring.

The pants are very comfortable and pleasant to wear. The pocket layout is functional and convenient. However, the biggest difficulty for me is the sizing issue – I can't clearly determine how to choose the size or what to pay attention to, because after buying two different pairs (different models) according to the chart, one fits perfectly, while the other is much looser. Nevertheless, the clothes are good, although more fitted than, for example, Helikon brand pants.

Well-made and comfortable shorts, perfect for warmer days. Numerous compliments confirm their quality. I have no complaints – I can sincerely recommend them.
-
The shorts are useful and comfortable, with spacious pockets, although they aren’t very wide and the fit is perfect. Classic double button fastening above the zipper and an additional snap. There may be difficulty choosing the right size, so it's best to try them on using the size chart first and then make a purchase.
-
The shorts are comfortable, carefully sewn from sturdy fabric. They have large pockets, durable stitching, and a smooth-working zipper. Additionally, they feature a nice cut and stylish colors. Using them is a real pleasure, I am very satisfied.

Sizing table is a joke. Plain and simple: Pentagon size 50 corresponds to US waist jeans size 40'. So 48 should be 38 etc. Ordered size 50 and they're a bit baggy as I usually wear (38') but I'm keeping them. Fabric is a bit thick, but hopefully it breaks after a few washes. Hope this helps to all that are hesitating like I did.

Ripstop pants hold up during intense use, but in my opinion, they're overrated. I have a 91 cm waist and size 48 turned out to be way too big, although a belt solves the issue. A smaller size would be uncomfortable in the thighs due to the non-stretch material, so I went with the bigger size. Pros: Durable stitching – that's their biggest asset. Suitable for those who like this kind of material. Cons: Typical ripstop – feels like wearing cardboard pants. They don't have any adjusters or drawstrings. The price is much higher than the quality warrants.

The pants have a great cut and are made of breathable rip-stop material. The Ranger green color looks very good. There are many spacious pockets, although personally I would prefer them to be fastened with buttons or snaps, not Velcro. Thanks to the wide belt loops, you can use practically any belt.

These are really great tactical classic BDU shorts. The polycotton construction is great and they feel nice to wear. The pockets are of the classic layout. Some people complain about the combination of buttons and velcro, but I think it's fine as the velcro front fastener allows for quick access. The small front utility pocket isn't much use in my opinion; one couldn't fit a phone in there, maybe a small pocket knife. The sizing is accurate. I bought 44, which corresponds to 34.5 inches, and this is indeed what size they were when I measured them. I liked the popper fastener with the added inside button; makes them nice and secure. Pricing is good, I got them for 705 kc; which represents good value I think. You won't find a better pair of rough and ready summer shorts.

Great, solid shorts. They proved themselves during a two-week safari in Botswana. After returning, I successfully use them in Poland; I really recommend them.

Great shorts with a military character and Ranger Green color, made from ripstop material. As for functionality and quality of workmanship, I have no complaints.

The pants are amazing. They are excellently made from high-quality material and provide freedom of movement. The pockets are perfect – roomy enough for small items and not too tight. I definitely recommend them to everyone.

The shorts are very comfortable and well made, with lots of roomy pockets for anything you could wish for. The vibrant colors stay intense even after many washes. The size matches the information. The color is intense and clean, and the quality is excellent. They are suitable both for the city and for forest trips. Very well made, high-class product – highly recommend!

These shorts look great, are solidly made, and the material is light, breathable, yet durable and strong. Sizing matches the description exactly. They'll work perfectly for everyday outings, not just for the forest. I can wholeheartedly recommend them to everyone—really great model.
