LOOK NO FURTHER! In fear of sounding like an infomercial, here is my assessment of the Aggressor Flex - Tactical Pants (light Olive). The title I gave this review says it all. These tactical BDU style pants have to be the best made quality tactical pants I’ve ever owned. I am a huge fan of BDUs and have been purchasing them since I was 17. I’ve always been a fan of the American made cotton BDUs – which have never let me down – being durable, light and comfortable, but as the years have gone by, I’ve found it harder to find the right BDUs style tactical pants. As with the expeditions I am involved with – these style of pants are essential. So, when I did my research and found the Aggressor Flex - Tactical Pants; I did my happy dance. The Aggressor Flex - Tactical Pants are well made and have a fine fit – for the size I chose. I am 6’ 4” with a thin build being 160lbs (yes I am a tall and thin man). I chose the 30x34 size and it was a perfect fit all around. I picked the lighter shade of olive, which really turned out nicer than the picture which was shown – feeling that it turned out better than expected. It is true that, the color on your screen may vary compared to the actual shade of the chosen color you’re interested in. The entire constructions of the pants have superior quality made stitching – pockets are deep and secured. The rip-stop type material they chose is outstanding – taking all kinds of punishment and shields well against cold weather, yet they breathe well in warmer times. The ankle (straps/pull straps) are an incredible and genius choice of construction, wrapping well around your ankles and hiking shoes. The pants move well – giving the right fit around the waist, holding to my thin frame extremely well, yet no binding in those "certain areas". There was no excessive tightness anywhere that might have restricted my movements – allowing someone to wear these all day with no issues. Trust me when I say – these pants are tough. My expeditions are long, tough and require me to carry equipment up mountains for hours on end, as I hike through dirt, mud, rivers and steep cliff sides. The water resistant material did exactly what was stated, beading the water on the pants without soaking in – just rubbed off the excess moister and all is dry again. From this point on, the Aggressor Flex - Tactical Pants will be my first choice of tactical ‘adventure’ pants and I WILL be purchasing many more moving forward. Again, out of all the tactical pants here on Amazon, these Aggressor Flex - Tactical Pants are hands down the number one quality BDU style pants on the market – especially for the price. Read more
You’re paying for the material and craftsmanship and you’re getting it. Excellent material, stitching, multiple pockets, easy access hand pockets, large Velcro straps at ankles. The fit is perfect, not too baggy or too tight. The waist fit is very forgiving and excellent belt loops if needed. They look professional. I use these as a crossing guard, and expect them to last for years. They’re 100% worth the extra money. Write it off as a work expense! Read more
When I received these cargo/tactical pants by MTAC, I was immediately surprised at the quality. These pants are incredible compared to others I have owned. The fabric is heavy, but still not a problem in 90 degree weather. They have seven pockets and carry plenty of EDC. The amazing seven belt loops will support whatever you’re carrying on your belt. The belt loops are generous and will take a very thick belt (.24) or larger. These pants are made in the Ukraine and are in a price range that is less expensive than other brands but great quality. The cargo pockets on the thighs are Velcro closure and have a zipper closure on the sides. I would have preferred a single top closure of a zipper or possibly snaps because the Velcro has only one touch point and may not be as effective over time. I found myself checking the Velcro closures repeatedly to make sure they were secure. Finally, how do they look? These are just a regular straight fit, but the fit is excellent, although, a little on the smaller side, it’s a close fit (little excess fabric) and the pant legs can be secured with built in Velcro. The pants are very comfortable and my first outing was roughly 18 hours and, just about all liquids are repelled by the material. If you’re in between sizes, you may want to size up. I rarely give reviews, but I felt these pants deserved one. Read more
These pants are good, maybe better than good, but not great. Some of this could be considered personal preference, but this is my assessment of why they are not 5 star. Pros: Fit as expected, no need to adjust or rethink sizing. Material is durable, and comfortable. All pockets, velcro, stitching, etc. is holding up well and is not cheaply attached. Multiple pocket options. Cons: The diameter of the pants from the knee to the ankle is quite narrow. There is a velcro adjustment AND a pull string at the ankle to tighten even more. I can't imagine anyone would, or even could, make this smaller unless you needed to cut off blood flow. As they are, you could slip them inside of any boot, which is a downside to me. I purchased to wear at the station, outside my boots, but do not fit around the boots and always appear that I have them bloused inside my boots rather than covering the laces of the boot. The zipper on the outside of the cargo pocket might make sense in a very odd particular scenario, but I still have not found the situation where I would need to access the large cargo pocket from two different ways. Something large enough for the cargo pocket will not come through the zipper. In my opinion, the zipper is more for looks. I would have preferred they put another open pocket on the right side to match the one on the left above the cargo pocket (on the front of thigh). Overall the pants are fine, but for the amount of money paid, I wish I had gotten a different pair for the purposes I needed. If you are going to wear low top shoes, or intend to tuck your pants into your boots, these would be excellent. Read more
