Upland Pants

[Jason Snyder]

If you hunt a lot none of the cotton pants hold up. I used to wear Carhartt, tried a few other cotton brands. The cuff on the bottom will be ragged after a few weeks and pretty well gone halfway thru a season.

Agreed. I blew up a pair of Carhartt pants in one season. Plus, they suck in the rain or snow.

I'd agree with this, except for the wranglers work pants I've tried. Haven't got a fray or a hole yet and they just flat out impress me every time. I should really buy more just to have before they quit making them. I do run gaiters on the Bottom for wet days and that helps. Nylon pants that are double front would be just as good I'd bet, but I can't find a pair that's double front and not super expensive

That's fair, and I believe cathart quality is just not good anymore

Anyone tried the new chief upland pants? Wondering how they compare to the pyke dakotas.

No idea and never will as it's another hunting brand that only goes up to a 34" inseam!

The pyke pants are now offered in 34” (32 waist and up) with a hem you can let out to get another 1-2”. I’m in a similar boat in that I need a 30 waist and at least 34” inseam, which nobody offers. Letting the hem out on the 32” pyke is close to perfect for me though.
