Särmä TST L4 Field Pants

Price 159.99 USD excluding sales tax

The L4 Field Pants were designed for pure functionality. Smart materials, a relaxed fit, and clever details make them what a pair of field pants should be, comfortable and utilitarian. These are a great alternative for the Finnish military-issue pants, which suffer from a load of compromises due to the fact that they were designed to double up as parade wear.

  • Roomy cut
  • Zipper fly with a button
  • 50 mm (2") belt loops with loops at the bottom (suitable for GrimLocs)
  • Elastic waist adjustment band. Easily removable
  • Diamond gusset crotch
  • Generously articulated knees
  • Reinforced knees with pad pockets (we recommend CPE pad inserts)
  • Hook-and-loop cuffs
  • Four pockets:
    • Two side slash pockets
    • Two slotted button cargo pockets
    • "Idiot cord" tie down points inside the cargo pockets
  • New 2023 update has suspender loops

Functionality and easy maintenance

We have not sacrificed simple reliability for functionality, the L4 Field Pants are wear-resistant, easily cared for, and when need be also easily repaired. The materials are simple but functional. all buttons are Canadian-style slotted buttons and wear prone details such as hook-and-loop fasteners are designed to be easily replaced if needed. The L4 Field Uniform stands for simple functionality, the stuff that you learn to value when you’re out there for extended periods.

Freedom of movement

The relaxed fit and generously articulated knees offer unrestricted leg movement. The wide 40 mm elastic waist adjustment band (which by the way is completely removable) is wider and thus more comfortable than the commonly used 25 mm width. The relaxed fit also gives you room for warm underwear and mid-layers, an important detail especially for us up here in the North.

The relaxed fit and generously articulated knees offer unrestricted leg movement. The wide 1.6" elastic waist adjustment band (which by the way is completely removable) is wider and thus more comfortable than the commonly used 1" width. The relaxed fit also gives you room for warm underwear and mid-layers, an important detail especially for us up here in the North.

Four pockets

Besides the common slash side pockets the L4 Field Pants also have two large button-flap cargo pockets (with British windproof style "fold down over itself" mouths). All buttons used are slotted "Canadian style" buttons, and pocket buttons have further been covered to prevent snagging.

Materials and details

The fabric is 50% cotton and 50% polyamide, ripstop, 225g/m2. The reinforcements are Cordura. The zippers are from Kroko, and these pants have a water and dirt repellent finish.

The older fabric is a 50/50 cotton/polyester blend, 200g/m2. This fabric is still in the M04 pants marked as retiring versions.

In the new 2023 update, we got rid of the double fabric on the ass area. We also put back the suspender loops on the waist.

The 25mm (1") wide belt loops feature hang loops for tie-downs and accessories, such as the ITW GrimLoc. The elastic waist adjustment band can be easily removed, this comes in handy when wearing a belt or when simply washing the pants - nothing kills elastics like washing machines. The hook-and-loop cuffs are designed for over-boot wear, a simple, quick, and secure system.

NIR-compliant materials

Camouflage prints and visible accessories are 100% NIR-compliant. If you wish to ensure that the NIR-compliant properties of the camouflage print are not diminished, we recommend being very careful when using common detergents. All-natural stuff without any optic brighteners should be safe.

L4 - Field Wear

The fourth layer of our clothing system could be regarded as "standard camouflage dress". L4 clothing offers protection against the outside world through camouflage and abrasion resistance. These garments are designed for minimal thermal load for effective layering.

Finnish M04 desert camo

This pattern is fantastic in the desert environment, from Arizona to the Middle East and beyond. Also quite awesome on shooting ranges, too.

History

The Finnish Defence Forces started developing new camouflage patterns in the early 2000s. Finland’s participation in the UN peacekeeping mission at the border of Ethiopia and Eritrea in 2000 made their own desert fatigues the priority. The first prototype camouflage pattern to see use was the K2004, which was deployed in 2003. The first models had a rather thick twill cloth but later models switched to lighter ripstop fabrics and eventually evolved into the official M04 Hot Weather Uniform.

Unlike the FDF, we at Varusteleka started developing our take on the M05 Clothing System in a different order: we started with woodland and winter models more appropriate for the Finnish climate. Now that we have those aspects covered we've finally developed our own versions for the arid and desert climates.

For hot climate

The previous desert camo version has details purely optimized for hot conditions. We replaced the Foxdura in the knee reinforcements and the inner side of the lower part of the leg with reinforcements made from the pant fabric. It isn't of course quite as strong, but it breathes way better, which is damn nice in a hot climate. The new version has knee and ankle reinforcements made of M04 Cordura. The retiring version pants are marked so in the size table.

Sizing

The measurements in brackets are the recommended user waist circumference and height. These are very slightly oversized to accommodate warm mid-layer clothing. The waist can easily be adjusted for a custom fit using the elastic band.

By removing the elastic waistband completely you can gain a few extra centimeters to the max. waist circumference. For example: by doing this our CEO with a waist of 80 cm got the Small Regular size pants (recommended waist 78 cm) to fit like a glove. Note that downsizing like this will reduce chances of wearing warm mid-layers underneath the Field Pants.

By removing the elastic waistband completely you can gain a few extra centimeters for the max. waist circumference. For example: by doing this our CEO with a waist of 32" got the Small Regular size pants (recommended waist 31") to fit like a glove. Note that downsizing like this will reduce chances of wearing warm mid-layers underneath the Field Pants.

Todella hyvin istuvat ja mukavan tuntuiset pöksyt.
Kriittiset mittani ovat 187cm 85kg ja valitsin koon Medium Long. Leikkaus on sopivan väljä (ei kuitenkaan mitkään gorkat) ja istuvuus kaiken kaikkiaan hyvä. Toki täytyy opetella pitämään korkeavyötäröisiä housuja jos on tottunut "normaalin korkuisiin". Kuitenkaan edes vyötä tai henkseleitä ei näiden kanssa välttämättä tarvitse - vyötärön velcro riittää vallan mainiosta.
Parasta housuissa on se, että niiden kanssa pystyy oikeasti menemään polvelle tai sykähtelemään vähän nopeamminkin ilman että housut repeävät persuuksista vaikka reisitaskut olisivatkin täynnä kaikkea turhaa kuten karttoja yms.
Ripstop kangas iso plussa, samoin lahkeen velcro kiristykset - pysyvät nätisti Haix P3:sten päällä. Perstaskuille on näe mitään tarvetta, mutta eivät ne mitään haittaakkaan - omaa tyhmyyttä niihin on tavaraa tunkea.

Mitat 181/78, medium regular just hyvä. Ehkä alkavalla alapömpöllä kuminauha saisi olla vähän löysempi. Kangas todella miellyttävää, lahkeiden kiristys toimii ja CPEn polvarien kanssa todella miellyttävää korpoilla. Hakkaa normi M05 kirkkaasti.

Alustava arvio, koska eihän näin uutta kamaa ole ehtinyt vielä kestävyyden suhteen kunnolla testata. Ehkä joskus vuoden päästä sitten.

Ensiksi ne huonot puolet, joita en ole löytänyt monia.
- Persvahvikkeet puuttuvat. Hommahan toimii niin, että housut hajoavat joko polvista tai persauksista. Näistä housuista löytyy aika vakuuttavat polvivahvikkeet, mutta jostain syystä, oudosti erityisesti tämän hintaluokan vaatteessa, persvahvikkeet puuttuvat. Saas nähdä mitä tuo tarkoittaa pidemmässä käytössä kestävyyden kannalta, koska kangaskin on suht kevyttä/ohutta. Jos tästä tuotteesta on joskus tulossa jonkinlaista Mark II versiota, laittakaa nyt ihmeessä persvahvikkeet messiin.
- Takataskujen napit saattavat tietyissä tilanteissa ahdistaa riittävän prinsessamaista käyttäjää, mutta silloin kannattaa kyllä melkein jäädä kotiin juomaan punaviiniä tai jotain.

Hyviä puolia löytyykin sitten rankemmin.
+ Liikkumisen vapaus. Ainahan vaatteet ovat vähän tiellä, mutta tässä tapauksessa todella vähän. Niin omituiseen asentoon en saanut itseäni väännettyä että nämä housut olisivat pahemmin pistäneet vastaan. Tästä saattaa innostua liikaakin, ja ottaa tavaksi syöksyä polvilleen turhan vauhdikkaasti, jolloin kyllä harmittaa jos unohti laittaa suojainsertit paikoilleen...
+ Jumalainen kokosysteemi. Omituisen kokoisena henkilönä kaikki housut ovat minulle yleensä jostain väärän kokoisia, mutta nämä toimivat. Vyötärökuminauha on sitä luokkaa, että kun sen avaa täysin, housuihin mahtuu melkein kaksi meikäläistä, mutta kun sen kiristää kunnolla, housut pysyvät ylhäällä ilman vyötä vaikka heittelisi voltteja. Kun vaan osaa valita oikean koon, niin alle mahtuu niin paljon välikerrastoa kuin voi haaveilla. Näissä on tosiaan ihan oikeasti korkea vyötärö mikä on kiva kun tuulee tai pyryttää, mutta kannattaa muistaa kokoa valitessa, että vatsa mahtuu varmasti mukaan.
+ Tuotekuvauksessa sanotaan että kangas hengittää hyvin ja kuivuu nopeasti. Eivät vitsailleet.

Mitat 180/79, medium regular 750 hyvä, lahkeet ehkä inan liian pitkät. Toisaalta voi kääntää lahkeen velcrokiristykset sisäpuolelle särmäreillä niin näitä ei juuri erota jakotavarasta. Pelkäsin että CPE:n insertit jää liian matalalle mutta käytännössä ongelmaa ei ollut.
Neljän päivän KoSu-patsastelussa lämpötilan pyöriessä nollan kummallakin puolen, tuulen yltyessä paikon 10 m/s lukemiin ja sateenkin ropistessa ihan kunnolla nämä housut oli just hyvät. Pitävät tuulta sen verran että alle riittää pitkät merinokalsarit ja kuivuvat nopeasti kastuttuaan.
Ainoa pienenpieni miinus on että reisitaskujen kanadanappeja on vaikeampi avata ja sulkea kuin tarranauhaa (duh) erilaisia hanskoja, kaulahuiveja, pipoja karttoja tms. välpätessä. Eivät napinlävet tiukat ole mutta vaatii vähän sorminäppäryyttä.

Kiitos Leka, jälleen huippu kampe!

+Kangas ohuempaa kuin perus m/05:ssa.
+Hyvä leikkaus, istuvuus ja liikkumisen vapaus.
+Fiksut taskut ja hyvät säädöt vyötäröllä ja lahkeissa, sekä takissa hihoissa.

Takissa voisi olla hartiossa laskokset ja housuissa reisitaskujen kiristysnauhat kuten jenkkien ACU-kamppeissa (joka muuten on ehkä maailman paras tappelupuku).
Muuten 5/5!!!

Omat mitat 183cm/95kg, 754 Large Regular just hyvä PV:n poolon ja pitkien kalsareiden kans.
Hartioihin toivoisi ihan hiukan lisää liikkumatilaa...
