I hope he reviews his thoughts on the talus to the timberline more so than the axis to the timberline. The talus and the timberline are more of an even match in my opinion. Regardless, it's his review.
Myself, it took a while to adapt to the built in knee pads in the talus, but now I'm used to them. Great pant. More of an athletic fit than the timberlines. I'm not a fleece lined pant guy at all, so I've never considered the axis. Love the attacks and I feel the talus are a happy medium fit between an attack and their pro pants. Hip vents are 100% mandatory for me these days. I even have them sewed in Prana's and Sitka pants.
