Hot weather pant recommendations

[fngTony]

I’m out growing my kuiu tiburons and thought I’d see what else is comparable before going up a size. Doesn’t have to be a hunting brand, only must is being available in a solid color.

I have a couple Katana’s but like the Tiburon’s looser fit better in the field. Tiburon’s are slightly looser with Katana’s tighter. Katana’s have a bit tougher fabric and lots of people like them over the Tiburon’s. Tiburon are cooler in the heat.

I saw the title and came to say Tiburon! If someone has tried tiburons and says there's one cooler, I'd have to give it a try.

outdoor Research Ferrosi Pants.

Eddie bauer regular guide pros. They don't have side vents but are pretty light. Can be had for $4X.00 when they have sales.

I have the Sitka ascent pant and really like it. KUHL also makes some good pants as well, I’ve got a couple pairs and like wearing them from hiking to everyday use.

I like Sitka ascents for hotter days, kuiu katanas all the other days.

nothing really compares to the tiburons. including the ascents.

Another vote for the Ascents. For me they’re the most comfortable of the bunch with the best sizing

I’ve used Tiburons and Kutanas quite a bit, and while nice, the fit isn’t as good and the material not as comfortable. The Tiburons don’t feel as breathable to me while active as other materials. Lots of guys complain about the Tiburon shirt not being breathable and having a layer of sweat under the fabric, well the pant is the same material and I get the same effect personally.

SH DH Lite is also a good HW option

Kings camo sonoras are pretty nice or the outdoor research ferrosi as well.

Tiburons - never found any light weight pant that is as comfortable and breathable.

I wear wrangler atg’s for everyday wear. Very affordable, lightweight, sturdy fabric. Wear them on early season hunts as well. Add a pair of merino bottoms when it gets really cold. For hunting I alternate with my Kuiu.

How are those tiburons cut around the thighs? I got some thick ones

probably not your best option then

Bummer. Still hiking in my FL Corrugate pants in the summer. Would not recommend them.

Tiburon is still the best pant out there for hot weather. If you start talking about durability and comfort of material, I’d go kutana, but I’m always amazed at how cool the tiburons are.
I’d pick either over the ascents because of vents.

Ascents ftw

I am 5'9" 173 lbs and wear a 33" waist x 30" inseam. Kuiu pants are nice, but they don't come in my size. 32's are like tights and 34's are way too big. Then there is the problem with inseam length. The shortest the come in is 32", and I think they are longer than 32", actually. This is based on the 2 pairs of attack pants I bought to try, one in 32" waist and one in 34".

At least Sitka makes 33" waist. They still don't give a shit about short people, though. Their 32 inseams are pretty long, too. You can't really cut them off at the bottom because of the articulated knee or knee pad or reinforced area. You end with your knee up at the top of the articulated knee area or the reinforced area.

Come on Sitka. Give us short guys some pants that work.

SG 206 pant would fit your needs well.

Try the Eddie Bauer First Ascent pants, they have more room in the thighs.
