Propper - tactical, bdu


These are the best Tactical pants. They hold up better than 5.11's without the fading with a smoother, heavy weight material that holds a crease and stays looking sharp. Runs slightly smaller than the 5.11. Propper Tactical Pants Dark Navy 36 x 32 F52208240536X32

I've tried several different brands/styles of EMS pants, and these by far outshine all the rest. The pockets are just right for storage of various items (cell phone, wallet, etc). The waist is lower than others I've tried, allowing them to be lower slung and fit more comfortably without feeling like they're sagging in the inseam. (read: It's more comfortable with my gut ;))



I do with the had a place to store trauma shears on the outside of the cargo pocket, but the included web duty belt allows easy attachment of the tools pouch. It also supports a radio extremely well without the need to constantly be pulling the waistline up constantly from the weight.

Overall, these are a great value. They fit well, and they're very durable. The fabric blend is great. They dry quickly, they insulate well, but they can breathe too. I only have 2 complaints that keep it from being 5 stars:



1) The color tends to fade over time. I've had my dark navy pants for about 6 months and they've metamorphosed into a sort of midnight blue, more toward the purple side.



2) The alleged stain-resistant teflon coating wears off after the first few washings. - 511 - Pants - Bdu - Tactical'
