First Lite Corrugate Foundry - Too loud?

[ZackP]

Went into the First Lite store today to fumble around. Ending up with some new tee’s and a hat, I also snagged a pair of Corrugate Foundry to give a run against my KUIU Attacks.

Upon comparison, the FL are noticeably louder. I love the pant, but those Attack’s are my all time favorite. My question is, do they ever quiet down? Wash a couple times, wear a couple times maybe?

My all time favorite pant is the SG Dehavilland pant. But I couldn’t ever get them to stop being so loud regardless of what I put them through. Needless to say I moved on from them and have exclusively run Attack’s ever since.

Just trying to add some FL into my mix and am wondering if I should’ve gone a different style instead.

Is it the pant material or the protective material on the knee? My standard corrugates got quieter, but I was wondering if the foundry line would be louder

It is the whole pant in general. Material is definitely different than what I am use to, but it still sounds like snowboarding pants

I have had them for several years and they are still loud, I use them for turkey hunting in the spring as I mainly hunt whitetails in the east.

I have both guide pants and they have not stopped being loud so now I just use the regular guides to church and around town

Corrugate foundary are super loud and do not quite down. I bought kuiu attacks to replace the foundary. I have no idea what first lite was thinking.

My foundry’s got quieter, I washed them about 10 times before using them (no joke). If the foundry’s and Kuiu Kutanas had a baby, there would be no other pants needed
