First light kanab pants

Any one wearing these? Thinking about getting a pair to take elk hunting in Wyoming but wonder what those who have or have had these think of them....

Great pants all around for many weather situations.  They breath great in warm and if it is chilly just throw a base layer on underneath.

I have 2 pair of Kanabs.  As stated- good pants for sure. The new upgrade to Kanabs will be even better though.

Bears can attack people- although fewer people have been killed by bears than in all WWI and WWII combined.

I have one pair.  Like the features and worked well in warm weather.  Fabric tore pretty easily though.  Have two patches now in the butt area.  One from a fall and another from sitting on a jagged rock the wrong way.  Pretty sure my heavier wool pants would not have torn if subjected to the same stresses.

Got a pair on order...a buddy has them and likes them pretty well. I am looking for something for the 50 degree and up range

I have a pair great pants but a little baggy in the thigh pocket area. Breath great.

I have two pairs and agree with the above statements. In really warm weather, I prefer my Kuiu Tiberon pants. Much lighter and more breathable.

Love them for all hunting seasons in Colorado.  Mine are a year old and I worn them every chance I've had and no tears or durability issues yet.  I'd love to get a couple more pairs.

I have a pair as well. I agree with the other statements. They are comfortable, durable, and QUIET! I did have to repair the stitching on one of my thigh pockets, but other than that no issues.

I guess they fit some body shapes better than others- I hate mine, they're tight in the thigh and when walking uphill they feel like they were restraining, holding me back, and the first time, only time, I wore them I brushed up against a snag and ripped a hole in them. I ought to sell them. I like my Sitka Gear Ascent pants, little bit of stretch, dry quick, and after about 15 weeks of elk hunting show virtually no wear.
