Product description

Functional outdoor pants with 12 pockets, durable ripstop stretch, and discreet design

Helikon-Tex Urban Tactical Pants (UTP) have become a classic for those who want pants with maximum functionality without compromising on appearance. They are popular among both outdoor enthusiasts and everyday users who appreciate durability, comfort, and smart pocket placement.

Practical pockets for everyday and outdoor life

The placement of the pockets is the result of extensive testing. Each pocket is designed to provide quick access and secure storage for everyday items:

• 2 front pockets with reinforced edges – durable for items like a pocket knife or flashlight
• 4 thigh pockets – two with zippers and two with Velcro flaps
• 4 back pockets – two wide and two narrow for small items
• 2 hidden inner pockets for valuables or compact tools

Material and comfort

The pants are made of PolyCotton Stretch Ripstop – a fabric that combines strength and freedom of movement. The material is quick-drying, durable, and at the same time flexible thanks to a small part of elastane. The result is pants that are comfortable to wear during long days and withstand heavy use both in everyday life and on hikes. Note that several of the product images show the pants in camouflage. However, this article refers to green pants. What is Ripstop?Ripstop is a weaving technique with reinforced threads in a grid pattern. It makes the fabric extra durable – even if damaged, the tear does not spread further.

Thoughtful details

• Velcro closure at the waist instead of a button – adjustable up to 6 cm
• Elastic insert in the waistband for a better fit
• Belt loops for belts up to 50 mm
• Discrete attachment loops at the front for items like a carabiner or keys

Size Guide

See the tables below to find the right size and leg length. Regular is standard, Long is suited for taller individuals.

How to choose the right size

Helikon-Tex bases its sizes on two steps:

• Step 1 – Choose size (S–4XL): Based on body measurements. Measure chest, waist, and hips according to the table below and choose the size that best corresponds to your measurements.
• Step 2 – Choose leg length (Regular or Long): Regular is standard and suits most people. Long is adapted for those who are taller or have longer legs.

How to measure

• Chest measurement: Measure around the chest at the widest point, keeping the tape horizontal.
• Waist measurement: Measure around the natural waist, just above the navel. The tape should sit comfortably – neither too tight nor too loose.
• Hip measurement: Measure around the hips at the widest point, with the tape level.
• Inseam length: Measure from the crotch along the inside of the leg down to the ankle.
• Body height: Measure your height standing upright against a wall in a natural position.
