I love how Armin gets so passionate about the in-depth details of what goes into UF Pro kit - It's a real testament to the quality, and the fact that UF Pro are so open and detailed about the tech they use just instils massive confidence in the clothing. The ULT certainly seems to have some great new ideas, which I'm really interested in trying out. I prefer zippers over buttons or Velcro™ on pockets, but that's just personal taste... just as I can forgive and really appreciate the two-way fly zipper idea, even though it doesn't work for me. I just hope we start to see sizes for those of us with small waists and long legs!!
Looks like a great product to me. I'm fine with the zipper btw and getting rid of the back pockets is the right decision in my opinion. Good job guys 👍
(oof my comment got longer and longer while watching the video over and over haha, sorry for that in advance!) Waist: Interesting idea for the waist area! Have worn different pants from different brands (got the P40 Shorts too, which I love for the most prt and I'm eagerly waiting for the Gen. 2) and this seems like a great way to deal with it, possibly even getting rid of the need for a belt as there is one more or less. Fabrics: Cordura is an amazing fabric really, I'm using it for many stuff I sew myself, too. You did not mention the actual strength of the Cordura, did you? I would assume the areas prone to a lot of rock shaving and such are towards the higher denier Cordura, maybe 500ish or even less to keep the weight down? Thigh pouches: Great choice towards "traditional" buttons on the thigh pockets! Personally I hate velcro for pouches as they tend to get stuck on vegetation and are noisy and they kinda lose grip when used too often Zipper front fly: I do like the double zipper on the P40, so I dont mind for this pants either haha Knee pads: Never have worn a combat pants made by you (not gonna lie there), but with another combat pants brand I had the issue of the knee pads being just slightly too high causing the pad to slide above my knee and thus making me kneel on the fabric below the reinforced knee area, which obviously sucks. Some other pair of combat pants had an interesting string pull system inside the left and right pouches to control the height of the pads for those who have different sized legs. Something tells me you guys have sorted such issues out in the past already, right? :D I gotta say: Armin, I damn love the cloth you design and present to us and even to that detail! Thank you for that (and of course a huge shout out to the whole team making all that possible)! It really is a pleasure to see you being so passionate about the cloth and you totally can be proud of these pants, they look great and I'm soo looking forward to getting my hands on one of those in the future :)
I totally agree about the back pockets, I would even cut and stitch the regular frontal pockets and just have them as ventilation slits in order to move the side pockets a bit higher. Personally I prefer the XT side pocket layout and don't really care about an extra access point or velntilation there. In total a great pair of pants for the job that will not fail when you need them to perform!
To all here if Uf PRO claims something it is that way dont have any doubt about it :) Im a real fan of there products the best on the market . But warning once you wear UF PRO noting else will ever match it. To Armin and his team keep on making them damn gooooood products .
please release them can't wait to buy! I love everything said about them. I trust this more because even you, the creator, criticized some parts which shows you trust the pants to still hold up to high standards.
Always my favorite brand. I love how the cuts are oriented towards maximum utility. The issue of closures, something similar has happened to me with my clients (I sew clothing). The shortening of the crotch distance is the most anatomical, but it does not please. I think that in the future the closures to urinate should disappear: you go to the bathroom very few times really, and they make it more expensive to manufacture.
Your passion for the integrity of the engineering is palpable. So I will place my order today! And also waiting on the M2 jacket in my size to become available.
do you guys make pants/shirts with hi-vis bands? I work in a open top quarry and no joke your pants are the most durable pants I've ever seen (mud ,snow ,dust ,oil ,rain ,stone ,rock drills ,and sharp metal) they've protected me from them all, and the amazingly fast drying make life way better. looking forward to trying the Striker ULT out.
Great video as always! I love how he is so passionate about all his designs! Is there any chance the urban pants will get a refresh? I would love to pick up some in new colors (grey, blue, brown) and see some development on the less overt side!
Love the product, wish that you would finally address why you do not incorporate the knee height adjustment to the pants, seems like alot of people want that detail
With that integrated underbelt with the front buckle, are you able to put the IWB appendix holster there? I can imagine the metal pieces of the buckle are in the way.
Sorry if this sounds dense, but: he seems to be saying that the elastic sides of a size 36 pant on a guy with a 36" waist would be stretched right out? For someone who usually wears 36, should he buy size 36 or size 38?
I have these trousers and there are no zipper for the lining. Since these are made for warm weather/climate, I guess it does not make sense to install the wind stopper. These trousers work very well in temperatures above +30c. I can vouch for that.
How much dust, branches and other stuff will be caught onto the velcro of the belt i wonder when in the forest or other areas? Never use backside pockets, so that u ditch them makes sense ;-) I like your eye for detail!
Welche Farben sind geplant? Ich hoffe es wird 5-Farb-Flecktarn geben? Trage im Dienst grundsätzlich meine Striker XT Gen.2, die ULT wäre für den Sommer aber noch besser 👊🏻
I have one complaint with all striker pants (I own xt and x). They offer 0 protection when sitting on wet ground, as soon as your ass touches the ground they are soaked through. Looks like the ULT will be no different.
Anyone know if that waist belt is removable? I like the idea but would prefer the versatility of being able to change the inner belt depending on what rig im using?
Hey there! This is in fact Brown Grey, however, colors in videos may differ due to color grading which might appear different across different screens. Please check our website for better representation of the color.
@@ufprogear Thanks but the photos left me some doubts between a kind of brown and more or less green :) even some resellers answered me yes brown but looks like olive :)) so i will not know until i order something in that color :)
I wish that you rethink about the back pocket…. It can stay with simple thin fabric… I hate to see a pants without back pockets don’t sacrifice it , it’s not a pijama.
Why dont you ship to Australia I want these for abseiling pants. Mate bet you bugger all of these pants see combat, id put em to use in my day to day kneeling rigging ropes climbing buildings etc, most of my workpants options are shit chinese pants that blow out after a months hard work. Black for color too. More market to tap into over here too. Cheers
Available very soon, brother! You're welcome to sign up on our website and we'll notify you the minute they drop: ufpro.com/pants/combat-pants/striker-ult-combat-pants
I can see alot of the design innovations in this belt and back of the legs being adapted to combat pants suited for those cyberwarfare specialists who need to go into combat in a second from a night op raid and something durable enough that can withstand a fun run to a mortar bunker. This seems really well suited for recon snipers but with 5th generation warfare on the horizon might be time to innovate a pattern to avoid thermal scopes that can be removed after position had been blown can't wait to see what your master craftsmanship can make into reality
Kilts give you superior freedom, flexibility, and ventilation. But they are not for cold weather unless shrinkage in your thing. Nice looks though. Hope they come in OCP. Not crazy about brown. Doesn't go good with my sage boots. But I can't watch a 23 minute video about pants. I just can't do it.
WTF?!!! $301.00 For a pair if pants, to be worn in "Rough" environments... Wear & Tear alone rules these out for the average Jo... Assuming this company Only plans to sell ti Governments who will be locked in contract to purchase in bulk for a period if time. I guarantee for that price I can buy completely ready to go complete uniforms that will have a lifespan equal to if not longer..with pads and stretch yadayada ...but hey whatever.. good luck
They are 240€ on their website. Which is still a lot, but i suppose acceptable, considering the materials and innovations. Of course you are going to pay more for products of a company that’s located on another continent. What do you think Crye Precision clothing costs here in the EU? So much, I’d never consider buying. I’m just glad not all military/tactical gear and clothing manufacturers are US companies. And don’t get me started on guns... ridiculous, how cheap they are in the US compared to over here.

@@ufprogear Thank-you for the fantastic clothing!!
Agree, i also prefer zippers over buttons and velcro.
Maybe the use of pressure buttons would be an idea to implement ?
@@PpAirO5 I expect they'd pop open too easily when you inevitably caught the pocket on something.
@@Sarrienne.. Maybe, but you could say the same for velcro... and velcro seems to lose it's effect.

Having worn two Crye G3s think I will be given this a try.
Have there been any requests to make the UFT in Black? would be a nice color for the collection!

For you wich one is the best between striker X and Ult ? I don’t know wich one to buy.
@UF PRO I would love to see a side by side comparison of X and ULT.
Can you install the wind stopper lining in them?
I also want to know the answer to this question.
I have these trousers and there are no zipper for the lining. Since these are made for warm weather/climate, I guess it does not make sense to install the wind stopper. These trousers work very well in temperatures above +30c. I can vouch for that.
@@SurvivalRussia That's a shame, could have been a smart way to turn your hot weather pants into demi-season pants
Whats the difference between these and the Striker HT? Which one is better for hot environments?
How much dust, branches and other stuff will be caught onto the velcro of the belt i wonder when in the forest or other areas? Never use backside pockets, so that u ditch them makes sense ;-) I like your eye for detail!

Will you doing more urban clothing for plain clothes mobile surveillance?
That would be cool. More EDC type clothing.
I have one complaint with all striker pants (I own xt and x). They offer 0 protection when sitting on wet ground, as soon as your ass touches the ground they are soaked through. Looks like the ULT will be no different.
this is a super underrated feature
I totally love your products, but please bring back the 3-Farb-Flecktarn :-P
Personally the back pockets are the pockets I use the least on the Striker X anyway
Anyone know if that waist belt is removable? I like the idea but would prefer the versatility of being able to change the inner belt depending on what rig im using?
Will there also be a Concamo option available?
Can you use the Windstopper lining with these pants?
I am wondering the same thing- I cannot find any confirmation that it accepts them on their website or elsewhere.
No.
What do you guys recommend for durability and hot climate striker x or ult?
Hey mate! The Striker HT or Striker ULT for sure. Please check the functions in order to make the right choice on UFPRO.com
Wow that is amazing
Thisone vs. the HT? What are the main differences?
Does this come in black
Will there be a black Version?
