UTS 11"® Shorts - Helikon-Tex

The UTS 11"® shorts by Helikon-Tex are the short version of the well-known Urban Tactical Pants®, designed to offer comfort, durability and functionality on hot days. They retain much of the performance of the long UTP® pants, but with a cooler, more discreet cut suited to urban, professional, outdoor or EDC use.

Made from PolyCotton Stretch Ripstop, they combine cotton and polyester for breathability and quick drying, with added elastane for stretch. The ripstop weave reinforces the structure and prevents any tear from spreading, increasing the garment’s durability.

They feature 10 functional pockets: two front pockets with reinforced edges for a knife, flashlight or multitool; two front pockets with Velcro closure large enough for a smartphone or an AR/AK magazine; two thigh pockets with YKK® zippers and two more with Velcro for magazines or EDC accessories; and rear pockets (two wide and two narrow inner ones) for small items.

The Velcro-adjustable waist lets you adjust the shorts by up to 6 cm (2.4"), while the wide belt loops are compatible with belts up to 50 mm (2"), including Cobra®-type tactical belts or the Urban Tactical Belt.

Size guide

How do you take your measurements?

1. Waist circumference: measure your waist without pulling the tape too tight or leaving it too loose.
2. Hip circumference: measure at the widest point of your hips, without pulling too tight or too loose.

In each cell: cm above · inches below. For pants, waist and hip are the main reference measurements.

If your measurements fall between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size.
