Great 50s-70s Pant

These are fantastic pants for 50-60 degree weather. If you're continually moving, you can definitely use these into the 40s, I wear them into the 70s but they get hot. That where the leg vents come into play. Very quiet for spot and stalk, but they are tough enough to hold up getting into the nasty briar patches. My only gripe is I wish they had at least one rear pocket. The other pockets are well thought out and adequate.

Runs big

Completed two systems for early season mid season for my son and I. These runs a little big and long inseam. Makes for a baggy loose fit, that is not as advertised.

Favorite pant

Love the light weight and performance of the pant. Most of all I hunt in the northeast where ticks are abundant. The equinox guard system give me an extra sense of security against ticks!

Perfect Early Season Pants

I purchased these and the Equinox Guard Hoodie for early Whitetail season in South Carolina. I was very impressed with how well this system works for mosquitoes. The camo pattern really blends in and was the perfect amount of comfort for cool mornings and warm days.

Great Products

Everything I have ever ordered from Sitka is amazing. I have numerous camo sets and they are all awesome. My only complaint is how long items stay out of stock. I’ve been trying to order the full Equinox set in Optifade Cover since before spring turkey season and just recently was able to order the pants but the hoodie I have yet to ever see in stock. Kinda ridiculous in my opinion. I’m willing to pay the price of the items but the long wait times for stocking is outrageous.

Great thought out features. Does help stay cool as advertised. Little baggy through thighs and crouch (worse with vents open), but minimal con for benefit. Was worried about warmer and warmer early seasons, but these pants are the fix

It actually WORKS!!!

I live in South Florida and spend a lot of time out in the Everglades, where the mosquitoes are relentless — they’ll bite right through jeans and just about anything else. I was skeptical at first, thinking there’s no way this product could actually hold up out there. But wow, was I wrong! I decided to give it a try, and it worked like magic — not a single mosquito bite. Absolutely incredible!

Fabric is not durable

The design is excellent. Pockets are well laid out and spacious, protective flaps are well placed and hold in place. Fabric is quite soft. However, the fabric also seems quite weak. I wore these perhaps 12 times. During about 3 of those, I sat on the ground to glass. I soon had a rip in the seat (puncture of the fabric) of these practically new pants. I tried to have them repaired under warranty and was informed that this was a wear and tear issue and so would be charged ~$110 for the fix.

Awesome pants

These pants have many things I liked. Durable for walking through thick brush I face in dove season, insect repellent helps keep the bugs and ticks away, pocket configuration is fantastic, I love the side vents for when the sun gets up and the day gets warm, and the internal leg gaiters are a great feature to keep ticks from getting up my legs. Will definitely be purchasing more.

I’d pay $500 for these pants

Never been a Sitka guy but after purchasing these pants I’m convinced. After wearing competitors pants and winding up with over 100 chigger bites I started researching. These pants single handedly saved me from an onslaught of ticks and chiggers. I can’t put a price on that and honestly I’d pay more if necessary (please don’t). Only pants in the game that keep you cool, fit great (don’t skip leg day), and have the internal gaiter. These will be my pants going forward here in east TN.

I absolutely love these pants for summer, working in the woods, whether I’m moving sets, stands, cutting plots, trimming trails, doesn’t matter. If it’s summer and I’m in the woods these pants are coming with me. Breathable, durable, and comfortable with the extra protection against ticks, mosquitos, red bugs. Can’t beat it.
