Lancer Tactical Ripstop Combat Pants, XL, Ranger Green

Combat pants that aren't an afterthought. The 50/50 cotton-poly ripstop weave holds up to knees-on-dirt, barbed-wire scrapes, and the kind of movement that eats cheap fabric. Cotton gives you the hand feel and breathability, polyester keeps the shrink down, and the ripstop grid inside the weave stops a tear from running.

Knee pads that actually fit. The inner knee pockets are reinforced with 500D Cordura and built for the included EVA pads — you don't need to hunt for inserts or buy them separately. If you play CQB or slide a lot, having pads sewn into your pants is a genuine time saver on game day. The fabric around the knee has stretch built in, so you can get low without fighting the material.

Pockets that work. You get plenty of them. Two front pockets, two thigh pockets with zip closures, and rear pockets secured with flaps. The zippered thighs keep rounds and small gear from falling out when you drop, and the flap-closed rear pockets sit high enough that a plate carrier or belt doesn't swallow them. All of it is actually accessible while wearing gloves.

Fit that stays. Adjustable waist tabs at the back let you dial in the fit without needing a belt that rides up under a vest. The legs have adjustable bungee cords at the hem so you can run them wide over boots or cinch them tight for a slimmer profile. No flapping leg when you're moving fast.

They run true to size. Large fits a 33–34 inch waist comfortably with the adjustment tabs at their midpoint. If you're between sizes, size up — you need room for the knee pads and any layers underneath.

Ranger Green is a straightforward olive tone, nothing exotic. It works as a mid-tone layer in a multi-color loadout or as the base of an all-olive build. These are field pants, not costume pieces, and they look the part without screaming for attention.

Includes the EVA knee pads. They're basic foam with a fabric sleeve — fine for casual play, not a replacement for hard-knee protection at a full-sim event. For serious CQB, you'll want to upgrade the inserts at some point. Wash cold, hang dry. The ripstop holds up, but hot water and dryer heat are hard on the elastic in the hem adjustment.
