Tactical Pants- Review Mar 10, 2011 23:55:07 GMT -5

So, I decided to take a chance and order some new tactical pants. My biggest problem is I can't find tactical gear that fits (the hips of course).

I ordered a pair of pants from ebairsoft, a company I have been getting a lot of gear from. Free shipping is a nice addition.

I haven't worn them in a game, yet, but I tried them on. Wow, love them. There is tons of pockets and their locations are ideal. The padded knees can be removed for easy cleaning and are a huge bonus. Very comfy. The two upper pockets have a velcro strap inside for attaching keys or other items that might fall out.

I would recommend them to anyone looking for a versatile pant.

They're rather expensive however so these might be a option

These are only around $45. I will see how the preform on the field, as that is the most important test.

My biggest issue with pants is pockets. Personally, I like the standard BDU's. You can get them in any color, and I like the pockets.

These guys offer a few patterns: navy, black, coyote, khaki, MARPAT and multi-cam.

Getting back in line, has anyone had experience with these tactical pants? Or a review of another kind? Maybe something especially good for snipers, since we spend most of our time kneeling or crawling.

I personally have had no experience with these specific pants.

With that said, these look good, for the Infantryman. Reason is, is that we snipers law and crawl more often than not. I have worn knee pads and other knee padding in the past, and they are ONLY good for short time kneeling, not crawling around on. They tend to ride up.

However, these are 'in place" pads, so they might work a bit better than the normal knee pads.

( I know I'm probably not helping much, but this is just my personal opinion.)

I agree that knee pads suck when crawling. I am interested to see how these in place ones work. I think they will be great.

I have notices that when standing, and the knee pads set comfortably, that they are too high when you kneel or crawl. So I would ahve to think that these would do the same. OR, maybe the manufactures where smart and already thought of that.

I would like to see a mid shin to mid leg fixed padding. Basically a raised shin guard, thats sewn into the pants.

I do like ebairsoft products but they can sometimes take a long time to ship an item to u. I bought my buttstock from them before, took about a month.
