Men's Stryke Operator Pants Outdoor

It is hard to put into words how brilliant these trousers actually are. I own several pairs, and they're basically the only trousers I ever wear now! The pockets etc. you can see in the photos and get more info on from the description... what's important about this review is that the QUALITY is spot on! The zipper is YKK (made in Japan) and your fingers would probably break long before the zip ever would... not that you will need to put that much effort into zipping/unzipping these trousers, as YKK zippers are well known for their smooth action. The crotch is gusseted, and reinforced. For those of us who spend a lot of time working in the forest, where squatting, crouching and lunge-like movements are the norm, this is a godsend! I cannot tell you how many pairs of cheap generic trousers I've busted the crotch on just because they weren't designed with practicality in mind. They have elastic reliefs on the waist (two, one on either side) which allow you to move them around more easily when you need to... yet the elastic is incredibly high-grade and doesn't sag, so they always return to a snug fit. They also have about twice as many belt loops as typical trousers, which means your belt won't bust a loop no matter the load you're carrying on it (those of us in the forest carry knives, machetes, axes on loops, folding saws in sheaths etc on our belt when they're in use). The buttons at the waist are brilliantly sewn, and despite constant use they show no signs of slacking or weakening. The fit is spot on for boots, they aren't tight anywhere, nor do they sag anywhere. It's as though they were tailored just for me... and assuming you buy the correct size for yourself, I'm betting you'll feel the same when you put yours on! The material they're made of does indeed stop the propagation of tears/cuts (I had the misfortune of catching the knee on one of my pairs with the tip of my knife... and while it did of course cut through the outer layer, the cut is tiny and has not propagated in any direction). The knees allow you to insert pads (and apparently - though I've yet to try - the butt has room to insert a pad too). They are coated so that they resist water and grime... so I strongly advise against using any fabric conditioner on them when washing! If you notice the coating losing effect, buy a spray bottle of proofing for breathable fabrics and follow its instructions to reproof them. My first pair still haven't needed reproofing... and I've been using them extensively for a year! They're tough enough to withstand the trials of the great outdoors, yet smart enough to appear before Her Majesty at Whitehall should the need ever arise. Whether you work in an office or with an axe in the great outdoors... you will LOVE these trousers!

There are no decent reviews on the web about these, hopefully this will help. I am a fan of 5.11 clothing, you may be able to tell. Bottom line: These are excellent, highly functional and comfortable cargo pants, the best I have owned. Suitable for travel, hot and cold climates, the hills, work, or town. The style does not scream cargo pant/military but remains functional, the fit good (see below) and the colours appropriate. Fit: I am a 32-34 waist and a 32 leg. I own these trousers in 32 waist and a 34 leg and they fit well, slightly long and snug around the waist. 34 waist are too baggy around the groin and 32 too short in the leg. They are a straight, non articulated leg so slightly long is fine. The reinforced knee still fits as it should, both standing and kneeling. The waist is elasticated and fits as it should with good access to pockets. 5.11 Traverse pants fit me in exactly the same manner, but with a well sited articulated knee. 5.11 Ridgeline pants also fit as per the Stryke pant. Design: The layout of these trousers is as good as you are going to get with a cargo pant. The waist pockets are large and deep, cleverly worked into the elasticated waist band for great access and reinforced at the pocket clip area. Slit pockets take a medium smartphone (HTC One), large folding knife or small torch and are a good depth. Rear pockets are good even when snug on the butt and have Velcro closure that works fine for a wallet or passport etc. Cargo pockets on the thigh are more discreet than a normal cargo pant, bellows in a clever fashion and stretch. All gear is kept secure against the leg without being annoying. The pockets are big without being ridiculous. They have inner pockets for 2 x AR15 magazines. The pocket holds an A5 note book or small tablet and case, well (Kindle Fire). Fastenings are well designed Velcro that holds the pocket completely shut yet access is rapid. 5.11 Traverse pants have exactly this layout less the rear pockets which are zip closure, which also work well. Material: These are made from lightweight ripstop nylon/cotton blend fabric with mechanical stretch width ways. They are great in all weathers and are breathable. The trousers are hard wearing similar to BDUs with greater comfort and fit thanks to the stretch. The Teflon coating means they are semi liquid repelling and are easy to care for. Construction: No issues so far, well stitched, good materials, metal zip and robust fastenings. Colours: I now own several pairs of these. Storm is a great mid grey colour. Olive is as the remainder of the 5.11 range and suitable for the field. Tundra is a green/brown combination and slightly darker than olive - actually a great camouflage colour for most environments, with a couple of washes it may lighten slightly to be even better. Charcoal is a dark grey. Battle Brown is darker than 'chino' khaki but lighter than chocolate - another great colour. In all, I like all of the current 5.11 colours described. Washing: I have followed the instructions on these pants and washed them at 30. I have encountered no shrinking or fading. Alternatives: The 5.11 Traverse pants are also excellent and even more comfortable, they are synthetic and probably less hard wearing as a result. Fit is as per the Stryke pant. 5.11 Ridgeline pants are almost identical to the Stryke, but have jean cut rear pockets and no thigh pockets. They are slightly more smart than casual. They are made of the same material as the Stryke pant and fit the same. I own both styles and they are excellent. I am not retained by 5.11.....

Amazing product. I purchased it for the bicycle mainly but I love it so much that I also wear it on my every day use. In fact, I will be ordering more in different colours. The material is extremely good quality feeling and very strong. The pockets are technically all over the pants. I like those pockets on the legs with a divided and a full size in fornt ot each other so you can chose which ever you prefer. Also the small pocket on the side I use it for my keys, amazing, they safely fit as it is deep enough. Just be careful with the size. I am using W32/H32 pants, jeans, etc. so I ordered same size. It is fine but honestly almost too big because of the expandable stretchy design. So some of you might wanna go with one size smaller and most probably still would be just fine. Basically if you get your actual size, it is gonna be more leisure, if you go one size down, then it will be somewhat more tight. But overall it is beyond anything. A bit on the expensive side but I think it is still worth. I just wish there was some promo as buy 2 get 3 or some sort of discount.

Son como lo describe, el color tundra me lo imaginé un poco más oscuro, talla 32x32 - mido 1.72 aprox 79 kg, me quedaron muy bien.
