Trouser Articulation & Features
Kommandostore Gorka K2s are constructed using Russian NYCO Ripstop fabric, which differs from many Gorkas on the market, and require a different care routine when cleaning is necessary.
Original Gorkas typically featured a high waist and single-seam crotch. It performed as good as it looked — like a potato sack.
We added an extra large diamond shape gusset that goes down to the knee, and lowered the rise to sit comfortably below the navel for a contemporary, high-mobility fit.
It looks and feels good even in the deepest slav squats.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
Gorkas had an excellent original suspender design, but we upgraded the materials significantly with modern elastic and ripstop.
It retains it's original function with superb support and stays out of the way of your chest for all day comfort.
The waistband is incredibly stretchy. Even when you add or remove layers, your pants will accommodate.
We've also added extra elastic cuffs in the lower leg to remove snag hazards while retaining mobility.
Lastly, we've added leg stirrups and an inner gaiter seen in other types of Gorkas to keep the pant legs uniform around your footwear.
Large & Flexible TPU buttons mounted slot-style on the fly & pockets are practically unbreakable.
Thanks to their mounting, they're less prone to snapping off, and have the ability to slide up and down for even more flexibility.
Pockets feature flaps with covered buttons to stay snag free.
The K2 trousers keep the traditional buttoned fly, but feature upgraded slot-mounted TPU buttons for long-term durability.
The belt loops are all 2", reinforced with ample bar-tacking to handle heavy belts & two-piece shooter's belts.
We've reworked the seam structure and size of the hood to accommodate a full range of motion.
It twists along with your head, and easily adjusts to your head using two shock cords.
The brim on Original Gorkas was flimsy, so we stiffened it to work as it should.
Large & Flexible TPU buttons on the fly & pockets are practically unbreakable.
We used "Slot Style" mounting so they are less prone to snapping off, and have the ability to slide up and down for even more flexibility.
Our jacket also features a dual heavy duty luggage zipper.
Two bands of elastic at the forearms slims down the jacket without restricting movement.
Shock cord adjustments at the waist and torso refine your fit even further, unlike the original Gorka's single drawstring waist.
Shock cord at the waist is kept out of the way with a keeper, ensuring you stay snag free.
The bicep pockets now feature a surface to place your favorite velcro patches.
Under-arm mesh venting keeps you cool in changing weather conditions.
Ripstop does as the name implies — It stops rips & tears dead in their tracks.
It's grid pattern aids in keeping damage contained, makes field repairs easier and greatly increases longevity of the suits.
The fabric has a blend of Polyester and Cotton — a perfect balance of durability and breathability.
TPU Hardware doesn't crack or shatter like traditional plastic buttons, and doesn't wear out over time like a metal snap would.
Thermoplastic Poly-Urethane Is known for its ability to resist abrasion, oils & grease, and it's excellent flexibility.
It makes for fantastic fastening hardware, and we used it all over our Gorka.
We specifically picked a high-strength bonded nylon to stitch the whole suit together.
"Bonded" describes the process of chemically treating the twisted yarn together prior to it's final "winding", resulting in high UV, Abrasion, and mildew resistance.
It's commonly used in heavy-duty applications on denim & leather products, and will hold up to all kinds of abuse on our Gorka.
This batch of Gorkas (made in 2020) will very likely be the last of their kind.
Due to the disruption in manufacturing during the COVID-19 Pandemic and the war in Ukraine, getting Gorkas to the USA was almost impossible. Almost.
Genuine Russian goods simply aren't making it out of Russia anymore, especially not to the USA.
Do a little math and you might realize how long it took us to produce them during a pandemic, and sneak them out of a country we're at proxy-war with.
But we never gave up. And boy, were these worth the wait.
We simply couldn't let Gorkas die at the hands of a few regulations and sanctions here and there. We had our ways, and a customer base that stuck with us for the entire rollercoaster.
If you're one of those people, thank you. We love you.
We spent ages jumping through every imaginable hoop to make sure Gorkas would get here in one piece, Cold War 2.0 or not.
And the work paid off. We ended up with the best outcome possible: A truly Russian-Made Gorka with no corners cut.
We can say it with absolute confidence: These are one-of-a-kind. And they're the best Gorkas in the whole world.
From rucking to camping or just plain everyday wear, these gorkas don't disappoint

*get the cops called on you for running around in the woods screaming incoherent “Russian” dripped out looking like the Finest Gopnik-gone-Spetsnaz Mother Russia has to offer (now if only I had that Smersh!) *
Colors are great, material looks awesome, feels durable and well made, stitching is strong but can be a little off center, at least on my example, but it should be just fine. It matches that Soviet aesthetic anyways of cruder than “Mr fancy pants capitalist’s” gear, but still rock solid. The Kommando Store upgrades seem like great quality of life changes, nice buttons, strong metal YKK Zipper, great quality all around!
I bought this as a “Goal” gear (down 40+ pounds in a year, all natural!) so I can’t comment on how the fit is, but it seems really great holding it and tugging on the seams and testing the zipper and buttons.
If you like the camo pattern and appreciate the Gorka aesthetic, then this is the set for you!

Привет RC from SF. Greatness in a box, all the good vibes straight to my door. I love the K2 Gorka, and the Strelka update too. The camo is awesome, the suit is just as good. I didn’t mind the button fly on the last variant but the zipper makes for easier challenge pissing with the bromandos. 🤙

Very Niiice! The quality and overall feel of what we in our local community refer to as the S.S.S. или Super Slav Suit is the finest in Eastern Bloc gear one can find in the corrupt and morally destitute capitalist west. With this in your possession you can leap tall banyas with a single hop, run faster than a speeding T-72 & of course consume massive amounts of vodka aided by wegetables from babushka’s dacha garden. On a scale from 1 to 10, whereas 1 is standing in line for three hours for хлеб & finding out there is none and 10 being complete victory over capitalist west, I give this a 11, one extra point for style. Trust me, as a large bodied Slav, I notice. 😎
