New developments coming this summer

I put these pants to the test. Wore them 6 days straight, slept in them also. The weather ranged from cold and windy with rain and snow showers to hot and sunny. Legs started to get cold one morning glassing, but they were perfect for a September hunt. Stretch was excellent for deadfall, zero binding extremely comfortable.

I was really impressed with the hybrid fleece! I have not tried any other hybrid tops but this will be my go to mid layer. I put it on after a rainy hike up to the top, wind picked up I put on the hybrid it blocked wind and dried my layer underneath as I climbed the last 200 ft. Also the hood is perfect and great to sleep with in the quilt. Wore this as a mid and next to skin. Warm comfortable breathable top, easy to wear and packs down small. Great job!

I just wrapped up a 5 day elk hunt. Wore the pants for ~4 of them. The fit/comfort/etc was perfect. Zero complaints in that department.

Durability wise - They do have quite a bit of fabric pulls/runs for what seemed like a pretty standard hunt going through manageable deadfall which is a little disappointing. I guess that’s the trade off for breathability.

To be clear - This is not a knock on OV. Just reporting my observations. I think think they have put a very solid product out on the market at a very reasonable price point. The pants are good value for money in my opinion!
My experience with the pants is the same. One day with a bit of brush busting and there are a number of fabric pulls. I think it's to be expected that pants being this comfortable would not be as durable/resistant to thorns. I still like them, but have to tamper my expectations for the best of all qualities.
 
Used the new OV pants for week hunt in New Mexico, so stretchy and comfortable. Perfect fit! Great Job! There are some fabric pulls from lots of deadfall snags, but that’s the trade off for the comfort and wearability of these pants. My go to September Pant now!
