2021 Sitka equinox pants info

[JoeB]

anyone have first hand experience with the newest version of equinox pants? are they quiet? will they be durable? are they thin for warm weather? Any info will be appreciated

I have them. I'm pretty sure it's the same fabric as the mountain/timberline pants. So on the heavier side of you're hoofing it in warm weather. The seat is waterproof. So far I've warn them in temps from 60-80 and they've been awesome. Definitely a little warm if you are hiking around in 75* temps, but not too bad. Very durable. Quiet enough for me. Slight swish nose if you are running the fabric but it's really not bad, and seems to soften over time. The cut of them is generous but narrow enough to slide into a pair of bibs with which I love.

I’ve worn mine in 60-75 degree temps here in NC. They are a little on the heavier side but did not get too hot in them. Fabric seems durable. Just wish it had an integrated belt.
