Pretty similar pant. Dlite feel maybe a touch heavier, don’t know what the actual numbers are though. DLite material might be a smidge louder, but still relatively quite to me. Similar athletic fit on both. No zippers on pockets of Dlites, I like that a lot. Knee pad sleeves on Dlites. Huge side zips really dump heat fast. I really like the Kutana, and I like the Dlites even more.Do any of you have experience with both the DLite pants and the Kuiu Kutana stretch woven? How do they compare?
How do the cargo pockets compare?Pretty similar pant. Dlite feel maybe a touch heavier, don’t know what the actual numbers are though.

Throw the Sitka apex in there, pick one, you can’t go wrong.
Size is pretty close, de havilland lite maybe little bit bigger. Kutana is mesh backed. Silent snap button on the de havilland lite.How do the cargo pockets compare?
How does the size through the thighs and hips compare? Tried ordering Kutana in a 34 and thighs wouldn’t allow full range of motion stepping up. Tried a friends 36 which was better but still a hair tight and waist was big enough it might bunch under a pack belt. Have the DeHavilland in large which fit wellPretty similar pant.

They put out a video the other day and they said May 1st is when they should be available for purchase. No mention of the price.I am hoping for the gaiters to come up before Middle of May. I want to be able to test them out on a 7 day backpack hunt at the end of May and be able to get back to everyone how they did.
Any insiders know when they are supposed to hit the website and about how much they will cost?
Thanks for the heads up.They put out a video the other day and they said May 15th is when they should be available for purchase. No mention of the price.
Thanks for the heads up.
I was hoping for some new color options..... Really been wanting to pick one of these jackets up. The gray color scheme is alright; not a fan at all of the green/tan. I wish there was a more neutral, earth tone option (like Pyrite in Sitka gear) for the woods, but I'll go with the gray if that's all we get.Were there any updates done in 2021 to the Dehavilland jaclet? Or is it identical to last years model?
Is the M7 suppose to be like the kuiu katana series? I thought I heard stone glacier was coming out with something similar.
I reached out to SG a month ago with specific product questions, never heard back. For those that have made purchases, is this typical?
For the 2020 De Havilland pants it shows the large as 34 1/2" to 37", for the 2021 its 36 1/2" to 39'?? Does anyone know if they did change the sizing? Thanks!
I just got the DH lites and i usually wear 33/34 in sitka pants and the mediums i got were way too tight. So ill try larges but think theyre going to be too baggy in the legs for my liking.Have been looking at the De Havilland pants and trying to figure out the size. I see that they can be adjusted up to 3 inches but when looking at their chart on the website the sizes are different versus on websites like Black Ovis and others?? I assume the SG webiste it correct - or did they change the size guide from 2020 to 2021?? Anyone know if that could be.
