Best Tactical Pants – Top 5

#1 CQR Men’s Tactical Pants

These men’s tactical pants by CQR come in many different colors, some of them being black, khaki, green, and navy blue. Sizes range from 28 waist and 30 leg length to 46 waist and 31 length.

They are great for outdoor activities, and are easily one of the best ripstop pants out there, seeing as they’re constructed with military and law enforcement design.

With a high-strength and high-density allow button and zipper, and a blended mix of polyester and cotton rip-stop these are very durable and can last years.

The fabric breathes well, is lightweight, as well as fade, shrink, and wrinkle resistant. The Duratex fabric is what repels liquids, dirt, and other contaminants.

There’s an elastic waistband for a perfect fit, a D-ring to easily hook-on tactical accessories, and around 8 multi-purpose pockets for various tools and equipment.

The pockets with flaps are deep and secure, and the mag and V-shaped pockets are easy to access even with gloves on. Do keep in mind though, that if you do plan on putting magazines in the pockets, a full sized one will only fit if the top is left loose, otherwise only small ones can fit inside securely.

Other than that, I also found that the back pockets are not deep enough to be very useful, but perhaps it’s a personal preference.

On the knees, there are pad insert linings with a gusseted construction for optimum mobility and freedom of movement; the last thing you’d want when in the wilderness to have restricted versatility and flexibility.

#2 LABEYZON Men’s Military Tactical Pants

These military combat pants by LABEYZON also come in a variety of different sizes and colors – black, brown, gray, greyish green, khaki, or navy blue. As for sizes, the smallest is 28 waist and 28 leg length, and the largest being 42” waist with 30” length.

They are made of 97% cotton and 3% spandex, making them lightweight, breathable, comfortable, and scratch- and wear-resistant.

The waist is adjustable with elastic inserts for a comfortable fit, and there are 9 tactical multifunctional pockets – two at the front and two at the back, and five slanted cargo and small internal pockets. The back pockets are fitted on both sides of the hip circumference so that your items remain secure in the deep pockets.

Easy one of the best combat trousers out there, other features include widened belt loops for belts of all sizes and a plastic triangle ring so that you can link accessories such as a flashlight, glasses, or a keychain.

The knee and crotch area are cut according to an ergonomic design, making them more suitable for flexible movement. Even the leg cuffs have the perfect fit, ideal for tactical boots.

These pants are not only ideal whether you’re going camping, hiking, cycling, hunting, shooting, fishing, but they’re also great even for everyday use.

What’s important to note is that you shouldn’t dry clean these pants, and they should be machine washed at 30 degrees Celsius. It’s important to use non-chlorine bleach, and if tumble dried at normal or medium heat. I’d advise not ironing them, but if you must use low heat without steam.

The closure is with both a zip and button and the zipper seem durable enough but the button worries me. They also do ride up a little high, making them rather high-waisted, which I personally found uncomfortable.
