I wear Wrangler carpenter pants, like Carharts but much softer and quieter.

Until I read this I couldn't understand why a hog would wear hunting pants   :knothead:

How about a pair of suede haying chaps?Seems like they would work good,unless too hot.Mine are very broke in,but are quiet.I guess I would have to get to go one of these years to really know.

I wear the tan or drab green heavy canvas Dickies and wash the heck out of them before I ever think about going in the woods with'em. They've got a pair of built in pouches outside the right leg that holds a pair of snips and a sheathed Bowie handily at the ready. Drag a pair of 18" tall LaCrosse CoilScent snakeboots over the legs for Mr. NoShoulders and I'm good to go...

I usually just wear jeans or carhartts or even khakis when it's real hot.  Going to check out these Duluth pants now.

Those Duluth fire hose work pants look like they'll last forever, lots of great features.....and have enough pockets to almost eliminate a back pack.     :thumbsup:

I wear jeans, the cammy Wranglers.  Washed several times, they get quiet, they also fade but crawling around in the mud cures that...

I go with the snips.
This what my oldr friends do.  I have one guy that has a pair of deer skin faced pants that he has had for 30 years.  He always sais they get better with age.

Terry,

If I saw one like that, I don't think it would matter what type of pants I was wearing.  They would definitely need to be changed (and probably thrown out    :eek:   )!!

Clippers is what we use, but check out Duluth Trading Company. They have some pants called Fire Hose, I think. I believe they come in two weights as well.

Thick camo jeans ( washed several times) are all you need.  Go slow and pick/plan  your route

Clippers are a must down south. I've been still hunting using clippers for years, it really works.

Duluth Fire Hose for sure. They'll stop wild boars and angry beavers. They make a "double layer" loggers pant as well. And, I know it's off topic, but, their buck naked underwear can't be beat.

I've been looking hard at the Duluth Fire Hose.  Looks like they may be just the ticket (along with a pair of snips)    :thumbsup:
