Good job friend. But after this video I'll definetaly won't buy Strykes! I'll try something with articulated knees, and made with nyco. I hoped that Stryke have a same fit with Taclite(I have a pair in coyote) but its to tight, Need something roomy but not baggy and without looking like some peg-top trousers, you know :)
@snareman95 I really love em. They don't have that baggy feel everywhere. Waist snug as it should but not tight, legs look fitted. Stretch feels is really nice..
I want to be able to wear what ever I get to casual come as you are church. I usually wear a button down shirt and a sweater in winter and in summer a not fitted Island type shirt. It can have a utility look.
@ohioleadslinger Well, the jeancuts would certainly be fine in most any situation as they look like relatively regular pants. Not sure if the rather tactical appearance of the other 2 works for your church or not though.
@snareman95 I'm wearing Wrangler Cargo's now. Can't get more tactical than that. It is really laid back there. Looking for something that has good well thought out pockets that is a bit tighter than the cargo stuff out there that isn't tactical in nature but works in a pinch if you know what I mean? I'm sure you know what I mean.
@ohioleadslinger Different choice for different applications. Jean cut for every day regular appearance. Otherwise, the Flextacs over the Taclites. The pocket layout is a little better and the stretchy fabric is super comfortable. I do sometimes miss the back slash pocket on the taclites though. Jeancut in flextac material would be a win too.
Thanks for the videos! I have some of the old cotton pants and need to upgrade...I like them but those stryker pants look perfect for what I'm looking for and those jean ones would be a nice pair to have on hand when I don't want to look like mall rambo lol
Thanks for the vid. You've done a nice synchro that allows a good 360 comparison. Next time you could perform some «kung fu fighting moves» to show the flexibility ;)
Thumbs up! I love the Taclite Pro. Sure I'm just an everyday civilian, but these pants beats the crap out of your everyday jeans, and they don't cost a bomb!
Congrats Bro, this video just has been shared by official 5.11 on FB. What else can I add, the best reviews by far, meets and, I'm not afraid to say that, exceeds in some way the reviews by Nutnfancy. Very very very helpful and well made videos. Awesome.
@tekknorat Thanks so much for the kind words. I'm just happy to be able to help out the masses and honored to be recognized by 5.11 for doing so! :-)
@PRSpl4yer I do get a lot of use out of my pants as much as I wear them, so I have a bunch of pairs (as I guess you've seen) and have reviews for each. But yea, I have a few pant reviews. ;-)
Nicely done. Those jean-cut pants were the first that my wife actually got excited about. She is not a big fan of my LAPG Operators. I reminded her Christmas is coming up....
@holybrolydood What is it with the women folk not liking our cargo pants? Mine doesn't care for them either. I think they are just jealous since they usually dont have pockets in their pants. :-)
@96wx3 I thought that too, but then my wife was going to a big flea market in the area. She didn't want to take her purse, and was scrambling trying to figure out what to do with her ID, cash, and phone. I looked down, and said, "Babe, you have pockets..." She looked mortified! The thought never occurred to her to actually USE her pockets.
She's not jealous of my pockets, she's just anti-pocket. I think she needs help. It's not healthy. ;-)
Thumbs up - great innovative vid for a topic very mundane. Agreed, Taclite Pro is the winner. Thank you for this!

@Vectar84 If you want articulated knees with a little slimmer fit check out the Vertx pants.
snareman95 1 month ago
@snareman95 I don't like materials on Vertx. Cotton is the not best option, I need something with nylon. 50/50 NyCo is perfect.
Vectar84 1 month ago
@Vectar84 How about the Phantom LT. They are a light weight I believe 65/35. I like them much better than the 100% cotton.

Received my Strykes today. I love them. . Next on order is some Covert 2.0's. I can see me having some of everything they sell in pants.
