5 Best Hunting Pants

Choosing the right hunting pants can make all of the difference on your next hunt. In this article, we'll go over some of the things to look for when choosing your next pair of hunting pants, along with our 5 best hunting pants.

Things to consider when looking for hunting pants:

  • Material

The material of your hunting pants is crucial, as it can impact both your comfort and performance. If you know you’ll be getting wet, look for waterproof pants made from durable and waterproof materials such as GORE-TEX or neoprene. These materials will keep you dry in wet conditions, and protect you from brush, briars, and other hazards that you may encounter in the field. If you will be hunting in cold temperatures look for insulated pants. For even more warmth in cold conditions, we also carry heated hunting pants!

  • Comfort

If you are going to be walking or hiking while hunting you'll want to consider comfort when shopping for hunting pants. Pants with stretchy material will make maneuvering easier and more comfortable. Pants with zippered legs can also be helpful to cool down during physical activity or temperature changes.

  • Pockets

Hunting pants should have plenty of pockets to carry any gear you plan on carrying on your person. Look for pants with multiple pockets, including cargo pockets and secure zippered pockets for important items.

  • Camouflage

If you are looking at camouflage pants, you should consider your environment and the time of year you are hunting. The species of animal you are hunting factors into it too. Camouflage for a fall mountain elk hunt would be different than a winter waterfowl hunt. Luckily for you, we carry a wide range of brands and camo patterns like Sitka Gear, Nomad, Under Armour, and more!

You'll wonder how you ever hunted without them.

I use these pants on some grueling Montana hunts. From September archery hunts to mid November rifle hunts. They are like a second skin. So light and comfortable, you don't realize your wearing pants. Perfect all around pants for any hunt.

Stone Glacier Men's De Havilland Pants

Not all pants are created equal! Especially, when put to the test of backcountry hunting with a heavy pack. The Stone Glacier De Havilland Pants are built with their innovative and Patented Contour Waist System that allows the user to adjust the waist size of the pants (up to 3") for an exact fit and make in-field adjustments for layering. As well, unlike other adjustable waist systems, the Contour Waist functions without the bunching of material at the hips which causes discomfort under the waist belt of a heavy pack. Add extra long side zips for venting in hot weather or high exertion situations, and a 4-way stretch, highly breathable and weather resistant textile and the De Havilland Pant quickly becomes a mountain hunters favorite. An athletic fit and articulated knees that are kneepad compatible are just icing on the cake.

Great Pants for the value

These are great pants for the price. The fit is good. I am 6'2 180lbs. I order the 34 x 34. The length is perfect, and waist is true. The waist does have an elastic band so you can make them stretch if you need to. If your looking for a all around pair of pants for hunting at a reasonable price, these are a good option.
