I’m 6‘4“ tall and really appreciate the longer length. Even when I’m not hunting, my nearest archery range is only a 10 minute walk from my back door, but it’s right next to a lake on one side and a swamp on the other. The bugs can get fierce and these pants absolutely prevent insect bite while I’m practicing.

Old model just before they switched, like the fit and function. Wish the button for the pants could be more adjustable by maybe another inch or two. I have it cinched down and it’s still loose. Haven’t tested in the field yet but worried it’ll snag or rip but we shall see.

Fits perfectly and had zero problems with ticks. It seems like ticks have become more prevalent in recent years so this goes with me pretty much everywhere. Ergonomic with pockets in the right place. It also has a good balance of durable, quiet, and breathable.

These have worked well for me in the swamps of Florida, and other locations where biting insects are serious business. I have found that I don't have ticks, mosquito's, etc when I'm wearing this - and feel more confident when I have them.

I spent 6 days canoeing the keys around Everglades National Park, it was hot and humid. I had a pair of equinox guard pants, one for wet and dry, and they worked amazing. I also had the hooded top and gloves. Protected against the mosquitoes and the No-see-ums (iykyk). They fitted well, were quick dry, and the extra set of front zipper pockets came in handy while sitting and rowing.

Works great! I took them out shed hunting on a nice warm day and the fabric it’s made from along with the vents on the side kept me from over heating. It is very comfortable. For size comparison I am 6 ft and bought a 34T which fits a bit big which is what I planned on.

I love about 90% of the features of this very expensive pair of pants. They're soft, quiet, and really do keep bugs and ticks off of me. I love that they're cool, sweat wicking, and don't stink after using them on multiple hot days without washing them. I have used them now for over a year, and really love most everything about them. There are some minor improvements, but for the most part I love them. I have one pair and actually just ordered two more pairs in different camouflage patterns. I just got in, and absolutely hated the Guard Pro and Guard LT pants, which I thought I would add to the clothing arsenal for hunting and photographing wildlife. But they were so bad, I returned them, and got two more pairs of the Equinox Guard pants to add to my pair I've had for a year. The things I dislike about the Equinox Guard pants I've had for a year are that there's no rear pocket(s). I also don't like the angle of the two hand pockets for resting your hands/arms, or keeping your coins/change in. They are too steep of an angle up and down, and kinda cut into your wrist when you put your hands in there. They need to be more designed like the hand pockets of the Guard Pro and Guard LT pant pockets and need to be more horizontal than vertical. They also seem rather shallow inside the pockets, and I've had stuff fall out of my pockets of these pants when I was driving my truck or sitting on the ground waiting for a turkey or deer. I also don't like the zippered fly, which is too "shallow", and should go down probably an inch or two longer toward the crotch, as it is too hard to get to "stuff" and pee with it like it is. But I love just about everything else about them. I just wish they had a lighter version of them, though they aren't too terribly warm for where I live in hot and humid South Texas. But for the most part, I really do love them. Even though I have some criticisms of them that I've listed above, and for those things that keep them from being perfect (for me), I should probably give them 4 stars. But I love what they do for me for the most part in hot/humid/buggy conditions, and that's why I gave them 5 stars.

Outstanding pants. Size was a little big when I first tried them on. When I GOT to the hunt and put on the 200 base layer, fit was perfect. Durability is good as well because I am a clutz. So I know they are made solid and well. Never had hunting clothes fit so well, be so functional AND keep me warm.
