Also if there were other options that was of
decent quality ? I also know are not very budget friendly but there in the highest price range that I really want to go .
Camo is the preferred color .

Budget might not be at this point but as someone who has done extensive "research" into wool pants the only thing better than this link is authentic army surplus and not much is left out there and what is out there is VERY OLD. Buy once cry once syndrome but these pants are the BEST around period for this price. Filson is the only stuff I think is better and it is north of $300 for a pair of pants.

Definitely check wool surplus too

Just out of curiosity, why wool pants? I love merino and wears lots of it year round but have found that I much prefer nylon pants plus wool long johns when its cold enough. Wrangler makes that more budget friendly.

Columbia Wool Pants - camo $130.00 if I remember right. PHG (Performance Hunting Gear) on the rear center belt loop.

Extra padding in the knees.
Extra padding in the butt.
Zipper close front pockets.

They have a soft light weight liner so there is no need to wear long johns under the wool pants. I guess if it was really cold you could wear a pair, but my legs stay warm unless it's bitter cold with winds, maybe then.

Varusteleka Särmä TST Woolshell trousers. I do not care about it, but they do have a camo option.

I have been searching for a pair of quality, functional, wool pants that is both a bit thicker than Firstlite and more durable. The pair I’ve been using is both while being relatively well cut.

I've been eyeballing these for a bit, would you recommend?

So you wear these as your everyday cold weather walking around hunting pant? I too am looking for an upgrade. Been using vintage wool from ebay but its getting hard to find.

Thanks for posting.
These look really nice, and have a short in pants and jackets!!!! I cant wear a lot of the pants that have that have snaps and zippers at the ankles because they are just to long and cant hem them. Looks like I need to save up and try these out.

I wear filson whipcord wool and mackinaw wool pants I buy used from ebay. Take them to the tailor in town for sizing. I usually spend $50-85 for the pants, and $15(hem) and $25(take in) for the alterations depending on fit. Works great and they hardly wear out.

Yes I wear them every day in cold weather especially when there's snow on the ground. I really like them a lot.

How do the Whipcord's compare to the Mackinaw? I have the Mack but they are used almost exclusively for snow/uber cold due to their weight.

the whipcords are thinner, like worsted wool or corduroy, but wool. its a tight weave that breaths and bucks the wind well. about 1/4th as heavy as the mackinaw wool
