Cooling hunting/hiking pants

[jerm8352]

What is the best pair of pants to keep you cool while hunting? I sweat a ton and get jock itch and want to find the best pants to keep me cool. I took the advice of someone on here and got the lightweight synthetic base layers from Sitka and those worked well during hunting season and I am going to have my wife see some of them into boxers because I didn’t like the Sitka merino boxers but I would still like some pants to hike and maybe hunt early with that help keep you cool. Looking at like the stone glacier dehaviland lite but open to any and all options considerations. Thanks.

Kuiu Tiburon.

Agree with the Kuiu Tiburon

Kings Camo ridge pants aren’t too shabby in this department. Camo fire has had them for some good prices lately.

the kuiu attack pants are pretty good. I just wish they made women's pants. Girls hunt too!

The Kuiu Tiburon for warm weather.

Kuiu tiburons or Kuiu kutanas, which I have the kutanas. I love them and I beat the shit out of them and they have no rips or popped seams anywhere. I would go with kutanas over tiburons just for durability sake.

Seems like Tiburon is the way to go. Thanks.

Been a while since I tried the tiburon's so maybe they've changed them, but I thought the OR Ferrosi was far superior to the tiburon for breathability, stretch, and moisture wicking/drying. Ferrosi's are all I wear on hot weather hunts.

Prana Zions on the list

I like the Eddie Bauer Guide Pro’s.

Gold bond extra strength body powder applied liberally 3x daily along with keeping that area very clean....

Arcteryx Lefoy pant is very nice

they are the best pants for really hot weather, with the material being very light and very breathable, as well as the hip vents, they are my go to for how weather every time.... i didn't care for the shirt though, that material isn't comfortable for me on my upper body, which surprised me because the pants are so comfortable

i will add, going commando is a good solution to some problems inherent hunting in the heat..... that has been my strategy for probably over 20yrs unless i want more warmth, but any underwear are uncomfortable to me period... let em' breath

Kuiu Tiburon, these are the best pants for hot, warm weather, along with going cammando. For the top Sitka EWS shirt, for me the best shirt for hot, warm temps. If Sitka made this shirt in solid colors I would own a lot of them

Outdoor wrangler pant. $20. My favorite pant over sitka and kuhls. No joke. Some people cant believe a $20 pant can be so good. But they are.

x2 i been using the same pair for like 5years in hawaii. i added some leg snaps to the bottom so i can roll them up like the prana zions and dump even more heat. this might sound stupid but in the summer i even carry a pair of lightwieght columbia silver ridge shorts in my pack. if i have a heavy pack out or its really hot and i gotta get back to the truck i just change into them and it makes a huge difference in comfort. kinda depends on the terrain youre in though but if youre on a trail and dont have to do any brush busting might be something to consider.
