I have the Kuiu Attacks and a pair of the tiburons. I love the fact that I can wear the attacks for days and they don’t hold the stank. The tiburons are a couple days and then stanky. How do the Katana’s fair in the stank game?

And yes, my nose is my superpower. TIA
 
Love my attack pants and wear them quite regularly. Never for work though. Usually for hunting or wearing when I want to dress up a bit. For everyday wear I use wrangler ATG.
 
I have 2-3 pairs of Kutana's and wear them nearly exclusively (sometimes rotate in the Attacks if its cooler) hunting 20+ days in the September heat; I've never washed them mid-season as far as I can recall and they've been fine.
 
Kutanas are hard to improve on. Hope they never change them.
My only quibble with them is that the waist stretches out after a few hours of wearing them. I don’t like wearing a belt so this is not ideal. For this reason I do not wear them when I am going to be packing in and staying overnight because it’s so annoying to deal with pants falling down. If they could figure out a way to make the waist stretch to accommodate movement but not actually loosen up, they would be perfect
 
I ran the Katanas for a couple years in 32x32. The main problem I had was they tend to get clamy around the knees. Especially when I got in my sleeping bag at night, I'd notice the sweaty, slimmy feeling around there in particular.

So stank factor was fairly high for me, I'd have to say. Pretty tight fit in the knees + not highly breathable = residual sweat.

I do the Outdoor Vitals pants now for Summer and Fall and like those better.
