The Forloh BTM pants arrived today. Just in time to go play multi day pheasant hunt. I've got to say, the cut is very comfortable and the hand of the fabric is isn't stiff like I envisioned. If these prove to be "rugged" and "durable" as advertised, they will be a sweet choice.

Nobody else is home, so the mirror selfie is all I can deliver.

I am 5'9" tall. I think that is pretty close to the average male height in the USA. I wear a 30" inseam. All their pants have a 32" inseam. They are a no go for me.

It isn't just them.

Fine on the first day with ~9 people miles in mostly grass/weeds, some cut corn.

I didn't realize a few things from reading the product description.
1) The pant itself is polyester, with a little stretch like most "outdoor" pants. The butt, calves, front of legs to include the pockets, are made from the nylon/cotton wax impregnated stuff.
2) The adjustable boot cuffs aren't the cuff itself. It is a slightly elastic band that runs through a tunnel in the boot cuffs and has three different male/female pairs. They fit over my Hoffman Pacs well. I'd imagine a regular high boot would also not require a gaiter to keep debris out when using the smallest snap size. For the minimalist shoe folks like me typically, I would want a debris gaiter still.

3) the left quad pocket is a zipper covered by a snap flap and is flat, single compartment. The right quad pocket is a snap flap and slightly bellowed out. Inside is a little sleeve centered within on the thigh that would probably fit most phones. My pixel 7 pro fits width and thickness, but is a scoosh too long/tall to close the flap. @KickinNDishin has a newer galaxy that fits fine. I stashed a few buckshot shells in it.

4) No back pockets
5) The NyCo panels are at least coffee resistant.
6) The "rise" of the pant is shorter than expected. I thought I'd get a snuggle/wedgie easily (see pic above) but with a thick full length merino under a thin 3/4 merino leg layers, I had zero issues. In fact, the fit was "swish"less, athletic, and very comfy.
