Currently run UF-Pro P40 pants when I'm out hiking. They're tanks and have never let me down but these Helikon pants might be my next acquisition because they're cheaper but still offers stretch fabric and durable fabric where it matters as well as many pockets and other similar features as the UF-Pro pants, and they just look lighter.
Yeah, so far they have held up. They have some areas that have rub marks from packs and such, but they are durable enough for my needs. I am very happy with them.
those velcro closed front pockets are great for a phone and a compact wallet. i use helikon tex urban tactical pants pretty much daily which are almost the same as these
Definitely looks like an attempt at making their own version of the keb trouser. Would be interesting to see how their canvas material holds up long term vs Fjallravens G1000 (I've got a pair of vidda pros I wear on a weekly basis, and theyre atleast 4 years old and still look brand new) Cool pants dude!
Thanks...if you're in the market for pants like these, I suggest them for sure. I'm pretty impressed at these! Great function and nice light weight! Thanks for watching!
I have both...these won't be quite as tough...but they are also more stretchy. I would say these are closer to the Keb trousers than the Vidda Pros if you had to classify them.
Nice review. I am curious as to how you find the position of the knee patches with being tall yourself. Are they in the right place for you? When you kneel down do the knee patches contact the ground?
I'll have to double check that specifically. I don't recall having and concerns...I think it's well lined up from what I recall, but I'll get back to you.
@@outerlimitless thanks. I recently got a pair after watching your video and I really like them but feel the double knee area is a little too high, I seem to kneel on the very bottom of them or just on the seam. I'm only 5'10" but usually go for a long leg. It's a common problem I find. Best is 5 11 tactical but most manufacturers I find keep the knee patches in the same place on the long leg lengths as they are on the regular leg lengths. Should be positioned lower really on the long leg lengths.
No they only have the one thickness...they are rather light weight. I would love to see these as a thicker option as well. No snow here yet...usually not for a couple more months. I hear it already got pounded out there.
Hey man thanks for the great review those pants are next on my list .I had a question do you think that material of those pants are Noisy? Asking because I’m considering using them for hunting big game and want to make sure they don’t make noise that will startle game.Thanks keep up the great reviews
They're not terribly noisy, but I'm not familiar enough to know how quiet you need it. I would say mostly quiet, but a little swoosh...you can sorta hear while I hike what they sound like...my camera mic is pretty good.
outer limitless thanks for the reply ,I still ordered them to test them out if they too noisy at least I got some good durable hiking pants .thanks for the awesome review
I dont for one second doubt the quality of another piece of helikon tex gear but whenever you say the "brunt of the blow" referring to some mud I would question your definition of high quality. Just a bit of constructive criticism for you; i mean no harm. Also id like to add you mentioned only 3 colours however there are currently 10 colours i believe.
Ok...so first off this video is nearly 2 years old. And at the time there were only 3 colors... you're a little late to the party to criticize that one. As far as the durability... do you think I'm only calling stepping in mud the definition of durability? I was simply making the point that they are water repellant enough to keep my socks and shoes dry even when stepping deeper into a sloppy mess than I would like. I stand by my comments... as I find them relevant to the performance and protection they serve.
@@outerlimitless as previously stated I mean no harm. I'm simply giving you my opinion on how your video can be improved. I apologise I was wrong about the colours, my bad.
I own several products (jackets and gear) from Helikon-Tex, great quality!
They impress me...overall all of their products have been great!
Ahhhh the Pemi-Loop, right in my backyard! Great views and a great product.
Yeah man...great terrain and quite enjoyable!

Cool pants dude!
The Vidda Pros are really hard to beat...they are pretty much bullet proof...but I melted a hole in mine!
They're less than half the price of the Kebs and every bit as durable and performant. Can't beat em
Outstanding video, well done.
Thanks...if you're in the market for pants like these, I suggest them for sure. I'm pretty impressed at these! Great function and nice light weight! Thanks for watching!
I saw this pants in shop. looks and feels great. will buy it some later =)
I LOVE these pants...just wish I could wear them to work!!
I may be wrong, but I think those cargo pockets were inspired by 5.11 Apex pants? Or maybe something that was even before Apex?
Honestly...I'm not really sure. Helikon uses similar layout from line to line, but the details change like fabric or configuration.
Cool pants I love a good pair of pants wearing my 511 apex pants know I have a pair of Helikon shorts on my list maybe next spring for those 👍🏻✌🏻.
Nice! Yeah, I was very happy with these for sure!
Researching this company trying to find a cheaper alternative to fjallraven gear . Looks very similar but less money thanks for showing them

outer limitless awesome thanks for the info I definitely like what I see in this company!
Are those breathable pants?
Great video. Thinking about grabbing these or the pilgrims. What would be the temperature window you’d wear these in? The coldest/warmest temp?
These are spring through fall for active adventures. Pilgrim fall through spring for bushcraft or tougher tasks.
@@outerlimitless Sweet. Thanks a lot, brother!

@@outerlimitless Any update?
Do they make a winter version of those pants. Montana and Wyoming are in the news for the snow they received. Did you guys get any yet?
No they only have the one thickness...they are rather light weight. I would love to see these as a thicker option as well. No snow here yet...usually not for a couple more months. I hear it already got pounded out there.
Helikon-Tex has released Blizzard Pants. They are not quite the same but similar. I haven't seen any reviews, though.
@@MrTryAnotherOne You'll see a video Thursday morning with the Blizzard Pants!
@@MrTryAnotherOne Ironically they are very thin and only a shell layer
Hi so you are size W32and L34 did you order size M or L please?
I ordered Medium Long. You need the long version to get the 34" inseam.
@Butterruler Not for my liking...I wouldn't personally suggest regular if you want a 34" inseam
@Butterruler I am 185 cm and 78 kg.

How tall are you?
Just a touch over 6 feet.
I'm a prefect medium long in Helikon pants...
