Guard Pro Pants

Pants Run a little too small waist and thigh area. I’d recommend going up just one size

Great pants!

Worth the $, for sure.

The quality of these pants

The quality of these pants is excellent, and they’re very comfortable to wear. The materials and construction feel premium, and the fit through the waist and thigh is spot‑on. My only issue is the inseam length — I had to get them tailored down to 30”, which adds extra cost and effort. It would be great to see Sitka offer a 30” inseam option in the future, as many competitors already do. Aside from that, they’re a fantastic pair of pants.

Guard Pro Pant

Used these pants opening day of dove season. It was 102 outside, this pants were comfortable the vented zipper was a huge help.

Badass

Look and fit great, if the insect repellant holds up these might be my new early season favorite

Guard Pro

Great build and super comfortable. Size medium is perfect for 31-33 waist. Wish the 32 came in the same length as the 34, but the 1” shorter is not a deal breaker for someone who is 6’. Beyond 6’ you might be getting in to a high water pant situation.

My favorite

These are one of my favorite pants hands down. Extremely comfortable not too heavy or light. Good water repellent and flexible fabric. I get hot easy and these help keep from sweating. Love them.

Not as good as original guard pants

Returned bc they were too loud. Tracked down a pair of the original version and they’re perfect

Took these to Alaska for

Took these to Alaska for a blacktail hunt and they were great. Dealt with the brush and dried fast.

I really like the ease

I really like the ease of kneepad installation and removal compared to other Sitka pants where the knee pad install was much more difficult

Guard Pro Pant

Fits awesome and the insect shield is MUST for those early season hunts! Great product!

Great Pant

Very comfortable, great material, fairly quite and light weight.

Keeps me from getting bitten

Summer time in Kansas. And boy has 2026 been humid and muggy. Well these are light and the zips on the side to dump heat is awesome and it also keeps those mosquitoes and ticks out when refilling the deer feeder or putting out mineral blocks and putting out trail cameras.

Guard pro pants

I just received these. Fit is perfect. I can see how they will be bug proof with the internal gaiters. Can’t wait to get into the woods with them.

Great Pant

Perfect fit, I only wish they would offer the 34L in more sizes. The other guard pants were too thin for me but these are just right. The knee pad pockets hold the knee pads in a stable fashion as well. Will add more to the lineup for sure.

Guard Pro pant

Super light weight, I carry a knife- with they had a pocket guard on them. bug screen sits high on the calf and will not work for regular hiking/hunting boots only for high calf boots.

Lightweight with not a bug in site

Took these pants out with the Guard Shirt in Missouri 100 degree day to cut deer trails and hinge cut and I didn’t have a single tick or any other bug the whole time. Stayed lightweight and breathable the whole time. Highly recommend.

Great pants

I haven’t had a chance to test them in the field yet to verify the insect shield performance. However the pants fit true to size and are light weight enough that they feel like they’d be comfortable to wear for work weekends at our hunting property.

Guard Pro Pant

The fit of these is far superior to the original. Many hours in the woods and brush with no ticks. Worth every penny. My only complaint is that I wish these also had the hip vents. I'm 5'9" 155 lbs and the 32R fit but are a little big in the waist.

Perfect addition

Bought these for early season hunting. Comfortable and light. Will be a great addition to my early season archery hunts

Hunting in Tanzania

True to size and not very noisy while walking in the brush Seemed to offer a little better protection than the hoodie which was essentially worthless with regards to Tsetse flies

Africa experience

True to size Worked well in heat and not noisy. Better protection than the equinox guard hoodie from tsetse fly bites- the hoodie was essentially worthless for these flies

Guard Pro Pants

I use them for everything from mowing my lawn to summertime scouting.

Summer in the south

Good mix of durability and light weight.

Sitka is amazing

I have bought from all the major brands and Sitka is by far the best!!! The quality of their product is unmatched and holds up in any condition.

Too Tight

They run small, I have Traverse pants in a 32 so I bought these in a 32 and they are too tight. I submitted an exchange still waiting on the bigger size to ship

Fit and Perform Great

Guard Pro Pant

The Guard Pro Pant seems to have a little slimmer fit than the Traverse Pant.

Very comfortable pants that fit well

Pants are true to size and very light. Mosquito protection is excellent!

Was trying to replace my

Was trying to replace my mountain pants, but these didn’t even come close. I ordered a couple of different pants and the features are not there. Had to go with a different brand. Sorry.

Review after 1 wear on a hike

I like the fit of the pants they mostly fit true to size. I have bigger legs and a behind but an athletic waist so they fit just a bit under being tight but are very flexible and have great mobility. The only thing is that I wish the crotch area had a little more room. When I first wore them, I was unsure if I was sent a woman's set of pants but they were indeed Men pants.

True to size.

Great Pants

Got the job done!

Perfect for turkey season

Pants fit perfect and the zipper makes it nice for warm weather.

I love the guard pro

I love the guard pro pants . I definitely recommend them!!

5 stars for comfort and functionality

Sitka gear is top notch. People complain about price, it’s worth every penny.

I've been a fan of

I've been a fan of sitka for years. Yes, for some reason they can't seem to integrate all the necessary features of a pair of pants into one single pair, and their prices are unreasonable, but their fit has been good for me so I have stuck with them. This pair of pants was the last straw. Fit has changed from the previous equinox guard pant in the same size. They finally add hip vents and a back pocket, but none of the pockets on these pants are zippered or evenly somewhat secure?

After a full turkey season

After a full turkey season with these pants I didn't find a single tick on me. They held up very well compared to the previous equinox pant.

Some of the best hunting pants I've ever owned!!

I purchased these just before the 2026 spring turkey season in a size 32R, and they arrived quickly. At first, I almost returned them because they fit fairly snug, but I decided to keep them — and I’m glad I did. I paired them with my Core Lightweight Hoodie, Ambient 100 Hooded Jacket, and Equinox Hunting Vest for the crisp, cool mornings in Missouri. After several ground sits in thick brush, I never had a single tick on me. I also wore this same setup — minus the Equinox Vest — while assisting in dense wooded searches over several days for a missing child in our area. Even while walking through some of the thickest timber, weeds, and brush, not a single tick made it onto my skin, despite many others in the group being covered in ticks for days afterward. I’d also like to highlight the durability of these pants. I walked and crawled through heavy briar patches, thorns, and thick brush without any visible damage or wear. I will definitely be purchasing another pair and highly recommend them for any outdoor application where insect protection is important.

Awesome pant

I used it on a Bear hunt in Tick infested Idaho. Did a great job of keeping ticks from crawling up my legs. The sleeve material worked great stuffed in my socks or in my boots. 🥾 I used them for the whole hunt and they did a good job of not holding body oder. The side zips were great and didn’t let any unwanted bugs in. I will be buying another pair of two for future hunts.

Hunted turkeys this spring and

Hunted turkeys this spring and not a single tick just wish it had more leg pockets
