Zip-off 3/4 Long John Suggestions

Here's to hoping my Kuiu 97's last forever. It sucks to hear they are discontinued

I think something is up. Maybe they were overstocked on 145s and now that they liquidated them, the 97s will reappear? Long shot but they're always releasing new things.

In the meantime, the Gohunt Basin's seem interesting. Poorly marketed though. All the photos are full length and I had to go into the sizing tab where it describes what 'short' means.... "Shorter length are for those who don't want to tuck any access material into your boot."...sounds like 3/4 lol. But they're 160gsm, 81% merino wool, 14% nylon, and 5% spandex.

Kuiu.
Honestly I hate the 3/4 length though. They ride up and are annoying. To me.

I'm not crazy about them either but they serve 2 purposes. One is highly active hunts with periodic glassing stops in 12" high lace ups.

The other is sleeping when conditions are a little too warm for the sleeping bag so my skin doesn't stick to the bag. Both reasons are why I don't want anything heavy.
