I'm not a big fan of buying something like this online but I've been unable to find the plain tan pants in any store. 1st pair show up in the mail. Right off the bat I can tell something isn't right. Turns out the inside of one of the front pockets was sewed to the inside of the zipper seam. No bueno!! A bit disgruntled, I send them back. I almost said "send my my money back and I'll go another brand" but I decided to give Sitka one more try.
Amazon returns worked as advertised.
2nd pair show up a few short days later. 1st impression: Not too impressed. Almost remind me of my Dad's old polyester pants. Hmmmm. Try them on and WOW! They fit great. Feel Great.
For the record I'm 5'11" 195. Normally I wear a 36 waist pants/32" inseam. These pants fit perfectly. Not sure what "athletic cut" means, but these pants fit "normal".
After a turn through the washing machine, I put them on and head off for a three day hunting trip in the high desert.
Comfortable in the truck. Plenty of room for the "boys". Comfortable all around. Only gripe: why only one rear pocket? Who decided to put the one pocket on the right side? Either way though, my wallet fit fine in the (one) pocket and I like having the zipper closure to ensure the wallet stays in the pocket.
Hand pockets are sizeable as well. No issues.
Six hours in the truck and the pants still look perfect. No wrinkles or bunching.
Moving through the heavy sage brush, the pants stood up to everything. No rips. No tears. Nice and quiet. I was told the pants completely disappeared when I sat down in the grass. Nice to blend in to the environment when hunting.
Three days later it's back in the truck for the drive back home. Pants still looking good. Still comfortable. Just 3 days dirty.
Now they are out of the wash and look just as good as the minute they come out of the package. I'm willing to bet they'll hold up for the next numerous hunting/camping/hiking trips for the next bunch of years.
OK, 2nd gripe: All the pockets have small zippers on them. That's nice BUT nowhere for my clip on pocket knife. It would be nice if there was a small knife pocket.
All in all though....... Glad I bought them. I'd buy them again. The good far outweigh the not-so-good.
Grinder and Dakota pants as well.
I would buy these again.
Great service and shipping
