SHASH
SFU
NEXT
MK2
I don't really remember when the legacy SFU and their up-
graded SFU NEXT variant came to market but I do remem-
ber that I never liked them. For low-profile use I preferred
other brands and for field use the old school BDUs were my
obvious choice. The SFU was a hybrid of BDU/M-65/tacti-
cal pants and their quality was… like other Helikon products
at that time. Very budget one.
The SFU NEXT Mk2 are totally different, IMHO what they
share with old gen is the "Pants" and "SFU". These weren't
redesigned. SFU NEXT Mk2 were built from the ground up.
My pants came from the first lot that arrived in Europe in the
new COVID reality, so long delayed after the initial debut at
SHOT Show 2020 in Las Vegas. I've decided to choose the
Shadow Grey flavor (BTW, long time ago I was the godfather
of that name for Helikon colorway) which is a neutral grey-
-ish tone which blends well into the urban environment and
does not scream "hey, look at me, I am the tactical guy".
Works well downtown and at the range. I have been able to
test the pants on the trail, in the mountains, on the bike and
at the ranger.
