Product Review: Ripstop Elite Trousers

by Paul Brook

I've been wanting to get my hands on a pair of these British army style Ripstop Elite HMTC Trousers for a while.

There's certainly no shortage of pockets on these trousers. There is a large lower leg pocket, which is a velcro closed, one on each side. Further on up we have the thigh pockets which are very large and button closed.

And the hip pockets are very nice and deep. And around the rear there are concealed button pockets - one on each side. And the seat is reinforced which is a nice touch.

At the waist we have a drawstring to keep that area nice and tight. And just moving a bit further around we have a regular size belt loop and we have some wide belt loops for tactical belts and other equipment. You can also draw the ankles nice and tight with the drawstring.

The material is a ripstop fabric and the pattern is compatible with British army MTP camouflage.

With durability, functionality and some pretty good styling these trousers are going to make you happy for a very long time to come.
