    UA ridge reaper all season long. They stretch which is the best part about them. I wear Klim long johns underneath and I am good until minus 20. Only issues is that they are not waterproof but dry very quickly. They are a very quiet pant and breathe easily. I wish I could find waterproof pants that were not noisy and breathed a bit. I've yet to find any.

    This is what I have been using as well for the last two years. They dry very quickly.

    First lite something or other. When it's wet I wear rain gear. If it's really cold I wear long johns under em.
    All you guys with synthetics, do you realize how LOUD those pants are?
    I also had a pair of badlands pants for a few years. They worked, the water resistant part wore off pretty quickly though.
    The only thing I like as much as trucks, is guns.

    I’ll second the 5.11’s. I’m done with the really expensive hunting or hiking pants. The 5.11’s last like nobody’s business, have great pocket layouts and can be had for reasonable prices on amazon. I actually prefer the poly cotton blend over the full synthetic too. They still dry plenty fast but are more durable and don’t melt through when a campfire spark hits them.

    Sitka Ascent pant is a great warm weather pant, and a Sitka Timberline with a merino base layer for when its colder and grounds damp, as they have waterproof knees and seat.

    I ended up upgrading to a pair of Kuiu attack pants. They've been great as I needed something with some stretch.

    Be warned.... kuiu sales are crap. They give you the pants for a sale price, but then take away the free shipping so they deal isnt as good as they advertise


    Also they run small. I normally wear 34 waist and ordered a 36 from them and glad I did.

    The pants are great though. Fit well. Comfortable. They have nice zipper openings on the side to cool you down on summer scouting hikes. The stretch is really really nice.

    Sitke timberline pant for the last 4-5 years. Love these pants. I wear them all season but they're a little warm for early season perfect for oct and i add merino base layer for nov. I did get a small tare last spring but stitched them up and used a seem sealer and there good as new. I'm open to other brands on pretty much any other piece of gear but when these wear out i will probably get another pair.

    badlands happily replaced my entire suit this year after two years of heavy use it was not completely waterproof, they deemed that a manufacturing failure and replaced!
